Focusing on the struggle for freedom of expression, the book discusses the Stationers Company's petition to Parliament for its printing privileges following the Civil War. This request sparked controversy due to past censorship of political and religious works, which figures like Milton opposed. Areopagitica serves as a passionate plea for intellectual liberty, urging Parliament to deny the petition. The edition features a comprehensive introduction by James Russell Lowell, a prominent literary figure of the 19th century, enhancing its historical context.
