A History of Censorship’: Exhibit Tour and Talk About the Censorship of Anne Frank’s Diary DESCRIPTION:Join us for a tour of the exhibit “Banned! A History of Censorship” and a talk by Ruth Franklin about the censorship of Anne Frank’s The Diary of a Young Girl. \nBooks\, libraries\, librarians\, and writers are subject to attacks—again. Recent book bans across the United States targeting Black history\, the Holocaust\, and LGBTQ themes have dominated the news. But the censorship of books has a longer history. The “Banned! A History of Censorship” exhibit explores that history\, along with the practices of censorship\, the methods to control and ban books and ideas\, the resilience of censored works\, and the attempts to push back. Authorities could ban books\, but they could not destroy them or the ideas contained in them entirely. Indeed\, while today some voices are heard complaining about universities not teaching major texts of “Western civilization\,” many of these books were originally banned across Europe by Protestant and Catholic authorities\, including works by Thomas Hobbes\, John Locke\, David Hume\, Denis Diderot\, Jean-Jacques Rousseau\, John Stuart Mill\, Immanuel Kant\, and more. \nMajor works of literature that we cherish today were also banned\, among them Victor Hugo’s Les Miserables and Alexander Dumas’s Three Musketeers\, which were both on Index Librorum Prohibitorum or the Index of Prohibited Books. As this exhibit demonstrates\, cultural\, religious\, and moral values are never static. They change over time. If some books and ideas become acceptable\, others might become abhorrent. Because Fordham was obliged to abide by the Index of Prohibited Books until its abolition in 1966\, due to its status as a Catholic and Jesuit university\, the exhibit also explores how Fordham dealt with books that were included in the Index. \nThe exhibit is on view at the Walsh Family Library in the main exhibition hall on the first floor and in Special Collections on the fourth floor until March 15. \nAbout the Speaker\nRuth Franklin is an American literary critic. She is a former editor of The New Republic and an adjunct professor at New York University’s Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute. She is the author of A Thousand Darknesses: Lies and Truth in Holocaust Fiction (2010) and Shirley Jackson: A Rather Haunted Life (2016)\, which won the National Book Critics Circle Award for Biography and was named a New York Times Notable Book of 2016. She is currently working on a book about Anne Frank.
