France's Long-Secret Library of Libido

So, I know this isn't something I've seen while here, but just thought that it was interesting that a country we (Americans) typically view as a very sexually open country had a "secret library" called L'Enfer.

I've included the link if you would like to read the article. Be aware, the title of the blog gives you faire warning for the contents of the article.

This is still a far cry from the censorship activities practiced in the states. However, given what I have learned about the history of France this year, particularly the history of criminal law and how the severity of punishment fluctuated over time, it is not surprising that some form of censorship or another was practiced throughout the ages, particularly with a subject that has historically been "suspect" as far as a person's morality was concerned.

All the same, it was an interesting article, and could prove to be an interesting exhibit.
