Prior Restraint

On the lapse of the Licensing Act in 1695, Thomas Macaulay wrote in his History of England, ‘English literature was emancipated, and emancipated for ever, from the control of the government’. It’s certainly true that the system of prior restraint enshrined in this Restoration measure was now at an end, at least for print. Yet the same cannot be said of government control, which came to operate instead by means of post-publication retribution, not pre-publication licensing, notably for the common-law offence of seditious libel. For many of the authors affected, from Defoe to Cobbett, this new regime was a greater constraint on expression than the old, not least for its alarming unpredictability, and for the spectacular punishment—the pillory—that was sometimes entailed. Yet we may also see the constraint as an energizing force. Throughout the eighteenth century and into the Romantic period, writers developed and refined ingenious techniques for communicating dissident or otherwise contentious meanings while rendering the meanings deniable. As a work of both history and criticism, this book traces the rise and fall of seditious libel prosecution, and with it the theatre of the pillory, while arguing that the period’s characteristic forms of literary complexity—ambiguity, ellipsis, indirection, irony—may be traced to the persistence of censorship in the post-licensing world. The argument proceeds through case studies of major poets and prose writers including Dryden, Defoe, Pope, Fielding, Johnson, and Southey, and also calls attention to numerous little-known satires and libels across the extended period.

Rare Malignancy

Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) of the trachea is an extremely rare malignancy with only a few reported cases in English literature. As such the diagnosis can be frequently missed or delayed. We present a case of a 69-year-old male who underwent tracheostomy for airway obstruction secondary to glottic squamous cell carcinoma and treated definitely with radiation therapy. Subsequently, the patient developed LMS of the tracheostomy site. The case further details multiple risk factors that could contribute to development of LMS including radiation exposure, prior malignancy, and chronic inflammation. These risk factors have been well established for LMS in other sites but less so in the head and neck region, which is the subject of our discussion. We also review the current guidelines for head and neck as well as limb sarcomas and discussed role of surgery or radiation and their accompanying challenges in management of this rare malignancy.

Pancreatic metastases are rare, accounting for 2%–3% of pancreatic tumors. The pancreas represents an unusual metastatic site of synovial sarcoma (SS) outside the usual localizations (regional nodes, lung, bone, and liver). The diagnosis is evoked by the personnel medical history of SS and imaging then confirmed by histological examination of the guided pancreatic biopsy. Its therapeutic management is mainly surgical with extensive removal of the lesion. So far only four cases have been reported in the English literature. We reported the case of a male aged 30-year-old who was admitted to our Institute for a local recurrence of SS of the left thigh which was initially treated by surgical excision. The patient underwent a wide surgical excision followed by chemotherapy and radiotherapy. About 15 months later, he experienced a pancreatic metastasis of his SS. He had a caudal splenopancreatectomy with partial resection of the transverse colon followed by chemotherapy. This report highlights the diagnostic difficulties of this rare localization and therapeutic challenge.

Obstructive Sialadenitis

AbstractIt is well recognized that, in general, chronic inflammation can predispose to malignant change. There is however, to our knowledge, no previously reported association between chronic obstructive sialadenitis and salivary gland epithelial malignancy. We describe here the first reported example in the English literature of a salivary duct carcinoma arising in a parotid gland with a long history of chronic obstructive sialadenitis. It is possible that a causal relationship exists between the two conditions. If this were the case then non-surgically treated chronic obstructive sialadenitis patients may well warrent careful clinical follow-up.
