[EAN: 9780275941932], Gebraucht, sehr guter Zustand, [PU: Praeger Publishers, Westport, Connecticut, U.S.A.], HAYES CODE FILM CENSORSHOP AMERICA 20TH CENTURY, 211 pp. with index, bibliography and 16 B/W plates. Usual ex-library markings. 1/4" tear at outside edge of page 12. "How the Roman Catholic Church, through its agency, the National Legion of Decency, dominated the American film censorship scene in tandem with the Production Code Administration, is the subject of this book. The period covered includes the early 1930s through the late 1960s. It is a book that I felt needed writing because of the paucity of the material on the Legion. Amazingly, and despite its pivotal role in dictating the content of motion pictures for the best part of three decades, there exists only one full-length work on the subject. That is an unemendated doctoral thesis of barely forty-three thousand words by Paul W. Facey, S.J., dating from 1945 and therefore covering only the first eleven years of the Legion's existence, which is based almost entirely on published sources." - from the author's introduction, Books<
