History of Obscenity Law and Its Impact on the Internet

Editor's Notes
- Fanny Hill: Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure by John Cleland was first publishedt in 1749. London's Holywell Street, known as Bookseller's Row, was the home of 57 porn shops by 1834. All had displays that attracted attention from the thrill-seekers passing . Porn novels, erotic prints, etchings, catalogues for prostitutes that contained their 'specialities' were all sold here. Prosecution of "obscene libel" also became common as laws became more explicit in Victorian era.
