Synopsis

Banned Pages History investigates the increasing censorship of LGBTQ-themed comics, exploring the political and historical factors that fuel these restrictions. The book examines the evolution of LGBTQ+ representation in comics, from subtle hints to more explicit portrayals, highlighting the ongoing struggle for visibility. It also delves into the tactics used by organized groups to ban specific titles, revealing the mechanics behind these challenges. The book analyzes the legal and social justifications for these bans, considering arguments related to free speech and age appropriateness.

 
Did you know that censorship of comics can impact legal precedents related to free speech? By examining case studies and legal documents, Banned Pages History illustrates how these challenges reflect broader culture wars and debates over educational materials.

 
Structured in three parts, the book first introduces LGBTQ+ representation, then analyzes specific banned comics, and finally explores the legal dimensions of these bans. This approach provides a comprehensive view of censorship, making the book valuable for educators, librarians, and anyone concerned about intellectual freedom.

    At its peak, the Etruscan society of age-old Italy covered circa what's now Tuscany, western Umbria, and northern Lazio, and areas of what's now the Po Valley, Emilia-Romagna, south-eastern Lombardy, southern Veneto, and small parts of Campania. 
    The first proof of an Etruscan society might be traced back to around 900 BC. 
    This is the Iron Age Villanovan culture, which emerged from the former late Bronze Age Proto-Villanovan civilization in the exact same area and is considered the first stage of Etruscan civilization. 
    Etruscan society lasted till it was taken in by Roman culture. Assimilation started due to the Roman-- Etruscan Wars in the late fourth century BC; it heightened with the grant of Roman citizenship in ninety BC, and was finished in 27 BC, when the Etruscans' terrain was taken in into the freshly established Roman Empire. 
    In this guide, you will learn about these things and many other aspects of the Etruscan civilization.

    From the award-winning author of On Fragile Waves comes an inspirational, surprising guide to creation and creativity, and how both bring us closer to God.   Centuries ago, sound theology and good fiction were friends and not strangers. Decades ago, authors strove not for self-expression and self-disclosure but for a mastery of craft and language and books that transformed the reader with wisdom and love. In more recent years, the old ideals have been exchanged for lesser ones.   Few guides to writing, which tend to focus on mechanics, point of view, and plot, address the more important matters of meaning, depth, and heart. But it is the latter qualities that make a book a blessing and gift to both writer and reader. Like Christ’s invitation to follow, they demand a risk and sacrifice of the self and all it holds dear. Writers from George MacDonald to James Baldwin understood this, but in recent years this understanding has been lost. Making old things new, this book proposes an ethics of reading, writing, and living based on truth and love.  Break, Blow, Burn, & Make returns the literary conversation to the practices of co-creation with God. Part bugle call, part compass for writing and for life, and part love song to the books that set us on fire, it offers those who are willing to receive it the courage to live, read, and write more deeply and honestly.
