Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Law of Libel and the Liberty of the Press: Showing the Origin, Use, and Abuse of the Law of Libel; With Copious Notes and References to Authorities in Great Britain and the United States; As Applicable Individuals and to Political and Ecclesiastical Bodies and Principles Those who are averse to have their own opin ions examined, are manifestly actuated more by attachment to their own tenets than to truth. They arrogate for themselves a privilege which they deny to their neighbor; and they suggest the suspicious inquiry - IS there any concealed interest in the back ground that causes discus sion to be dreaded and opposed! I intend, therefore, upon the present occasion, to maintain the right OF free discussion, in its fullest extent: as applied to any and every ques tion, opinion, or doctrine, political, theological, moral, metaphysical, or philosophical, within the widest range of human inquiry: and I trust I Shall Show, that the cause of truth, and the inte rest of the public, requires the free and full exer cise of the right now claimed: and that in all times and places, those who have, been so anxious to throw fetters around the human intellect, have had no other motive for so doing, than to keep the persons, and the property of their fellow men, more completely within their own control.

Book The Revolution in Freedoms of Press and Speech

Download or read book The Revolution in Freedoms of Press and Speech written by Wendell Bird and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2020 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the revolutionary broadening of concepts of freedom of press and freedom of speech in Great Britain and in America in the late eighteenth century, in the period that produced state declarations of rights and then the First Amendment and Fox's Libel Act. The conventional view of the history of freedoms of press and speech is that the common law since antiquity defined those freedoms narrowly, and that Sir William Blackstone in 1769, and Lord Chief Justice Mansfield in 1770, faithfully summarized the common law in giving a very narrow definition of those freedoms as mere liberty from prior restraint and not liberty from punishment after something was printed or spoken. This book proposes, to the contrary, that Blackstone carefully selected the narrowest definition that had been suggested in popular essays in the prior seventy years, in order to oppose the growing claims for much broader protections of press and speech. Blackstone misdescribed his summary as an accepted common law definition, which in fact did not exist. A year later, Mansfield inserted a similar definition into the common law for the first time, also misdescribing it as a long-accepted definition, and soon misdescribed the unique rules for prosecuting sedition as having an equally ancient pedigree. Blackstone and Mansfield were not declaring the law as it had long been, but were leading a counter-revolution about the breadth of freedoms of press and speech, and cloaking it as a summary of a narrow common law doctrine that in fact was nonexistent. That conflict of revolutionary view and counter-revolutionary view continues today. For over a century, a neo-Blackstonian view has been dominant, or at least very influential, among historians. Contrary to those narrow claims, this book concludes that the broad understanding of freedoms of press and speech was the dominant context of the First Amendment and of Fox's Libel Act, and that it enjoyed greater historical support.
