Thanks for this. I had never even heard of this work and now plan to read it. The protection of classical liberal ideals during freedom of speech, etc., are important to me and seem increasingly under threat - especially in the academy as you well know!

I came across Areopagitica two days ago , at Blackwell’s, a bookshop I expect you know well dear Karen. It was one of the only sunny days Oxford had this autumn and I walked with my son across Magdalen bridge and right across town and I thought if you as I bought the book and how lovely it would be if you came and gave a talk there. (Areopagitica was hidden in the poetry section!!! Imagine!!!!)
