Book Description

From one of the country's most esteemed experts on the First Amendment and the author of the classic Gideon's Trumpet, an eloquent essay on the importance of freedom of expression.

More than any other people on earth, Americans are free to say and write what they think. The media can air the secrets of the White House, the boardroom, or the bedroom with little fear of punishment or penalty. The reason for this extraordinary freedom is not a superior culture of tolerance, but just fourteen words in our most fundamental legal document: the free expression clauses of the First Amendment to the Constitution.

In Lewis's telling, the story of how the right of free expression evolved along with our nation makes a compelling case for the adaptability of our constitution. Although Americans have gleefully and sometimes outrageously exercised their right to free speech since before the nation's founding, the Supreme Court did not begin to recognize this right until 1919. Freedom of speech and the press as we know it today is surprisingly recent. Anthony Lewis tells us how these rights were created, revealing a story of hard choices, heroic (and some less heroic) judges, and fascinating and eccentric defendants who forced the legal system to come face-to-face with one of America's great founding ideas.

有些时候,我喜欢一个人呆着,比如看书。看书于我而言是一个非常私密的时刻,只有在一个人的时候,才能放开心灵,遨游于文字的世界中,尽情体味痛苦与欢乐,怀想与追思,在宇宙所有的宏阔与细微处漫步。 最近一段时间,连续看了三本书,作者都是安东尼刘易斯,他是《纽约时报》...

这本书是国庆放假期间三天读完的。上一本书是“批评官员的尺度”,基于了解美国宪法第一修正案的想法,继续读了这本书,同一个作者所著。 看完之后的几点感受: 1、言论自由需要一个有力的制度作保障,司法是其中最重要的一个环节,美国从建国以来设计的三权分立制度和最高法院...

刚看这本书的时候,最令我感到惊讶的是美国历史也有许多历史时期,由于各种政治原因,尤其是对外来和敌对政治势力的恐惧,今天可谓言论自由标兵的美国,也有许多不同意见的压制甚至迫害。然而,当我看完的时候,令我真正感触的是为什么经过所有历史的曲折,美国在言论自由和公...

“国会不得立法…限制言论、出版自由……”上面这句话,便是美国宪法第一修正案的核心内容。而美国人民为了这短短一句话,在两百年间利用法律所赋予的权利,不断使得法律本身得到充实和完善。 权利并非天赋。刘易斯开篇就说:今日美国“乃是世上言论最为开放的社会”。这不仅是...

对题材感兴趣找来看,结果英文很难好多法律上的专业术语一度中断了想放弃,最近疫情的大环境下把它看完了,复杂长句子多,很多细节没看懂。但总体是很有趣的简史,包含各种相关的历史案例,从言论自由的适用范围,公共事务or个人,出版行业有没有特权,诽谤、煽动的裁定等等。“Even a false belief is valuable, because the process of debate about it may test and conform the truth of the opposing view.”

非常好的简史,被美国诗意的法庭意见惊呆了”It is an experiment, as all life is an experiment...””One man’s vulgarity is another’s lyric.”

其实想给九分。可以当作第一修正案的hornbook来看,归纳得很好,材料内容的选择也很准确,但总体来说可能信息量就会牺牲一点。
