Immortality is and will remain a dream forever. Sorin Cerin said:" Immortality is the moment's eternity. Immortality is the angel that wakes you from the death of your own destiny. There is no profound death than in immortality when the life that will die has disappeared forever."
Freedom of the printed word is a defining feature of the modern world. Yet censorship and the suppression of literature never cease, and remain topical issues even in the most liberal of democracies. Today, just as in the past, advances in media technology are followed by new regulatory mechanisms. Similarly, any attempt to control cultural expression inevitably spurs fresh discussions about freedom of speech. In Forbidden Literature scholars from a variety of disciplines address censorship's past and present, whether in liberal democracies or totalitarian regimes. Through in-depth case studies they trace a historical continuum in which literature reveals its two-sided nature: it demands both regulation and protection.

În anumite perioade purtam ...
