Description
Imperial Germany's governing elite sought to suppress literature that challenged established norms in the name of public peace and order. This study is the first systematic analysis of state censorship of literature and theater in imperial Germany (1871-1918). It examines the intent, function, and impact of literary censorship on authors, publishers, and theater directors during this period.
