'Tuer un homme, c’est détruire une créature raisonnable ; mais étouffer un bon livre c’est tuer la raison elle-même. On ne peut pas regarder la censure des livres comme une méthode dictée par la sagesse ; car, si c’était un moyen sage, il faudrait l’appliquer à tout ; il n’y aurait pas de raison pour qu’on s’en servit pour les livres, plutôt que pour toute autre chose ; c’est là sans doute une invincible démonstration que ce moyen n’est bon à rien'Dans ce pamphlet resté célèbre, Milton réclame l’abrogation du Licensing Order promulgué par le Parlement d’Angleterre en juin 1643. Cette ordonnance instaurait une censure et prohibait l’impression de livres jugés contraires à la religion, au gouvernement et au bonheur de la nation toute entière. C’est ainsi contre une atteinte sévère à la liberté d’expression que Milton s’exprime, en déployant un argumentaire à la fois historique et philosophique qui, point par point, vise à démontrer l’inutilité et la dangerosité de cette inquisition.Cette édition est agrémentée d’une préface inédite et propose aux lecteurs une mise en page soignée destinée à rendre la lecture confortable.
