{{Template}}In '''''The Secret Museum: Pornography in Modern Culture''''' (1987) [[Walter Kendrick]] traces the relatively recent concept of [[pornography]]--the word was not coined until the late 18th century--which became a public issue once the printing press gave ordinary people access to the erotica of the Greeks and Romans, the art and literature of the French enlightenment, and the poems of the [[Earl of Rochester]] and [[John Cleland]]'s ''[[Fanny Hill]]''. From the [[secret museum]]s to the [[obscenity]] trials of ''[[Madame Bovary]]'' and ''[[Lady Chatterley's Lover]]'', to [[Mapplethorpe]], cable TV, and the Internet, Kendrick explores how conceptions of pornography relate to issues of freedom of expression and censorship. | {{Template}}In '''''The Secret Museum: Pornography in Modern Culture''''' (1987) [[Walter Kendrick]] traces the relatively recent concept of [[pornography]]--the word was not coined until the late 18th century--which became a public issue once the printing press gave ordinary people access to the erotica of the Greeks and Romans, the art and literature of the French enlightenment, and the poems of the [[Earl of Rochester]] and [[John Cleland]]'s ''[[Fanny Hill]]''.
