Fanny Hill: Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure by John ClelandPublication date 2006-01-04 Usage Public Domain Topics #librivox, #literature, #audiobook, #erotica, #banned #books, Language #EnglishLibriVox recording of Fanny Hill, Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure by John Cleland.Fanny Hill: Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure (1749) was the first widely-read English novel in the genre "Erotica." It was written by John Cleland as he was serving hard time at a debtor's prison in London. Over the centuries, the novel has been repeatedly banned by authorities, assuring its preeminent role in the history of the ongoing struggle against censorship of free expression.Until Fanny Hill, previous heroines had conducted their amorous liaisons "off-stage." Any erotic misadventures were described euphemistically. As women who had gone astray, they always repented, which made even their most outrageous dalliances somehow suitable for a moralistic readership. The protagonist of Fanny Hill, however, never repented a single moment of her sexual exploits ... quite the contrary! And with Fanny, the devil is in the details, realistically described.

Dans cette émission, nous nous intéressons au monde de la prostitution. Celle-ci tout au long de l'histoire et plus particulièrement au XIXe siècle change de statut et de nature ; elle s'amplifie, trouble et inquiète ceux investis de la mission de veiller au bon ordre social. Système complexe, elle est protéiforme tant au niveau des profils que des lieux où elle s'exerce. Dans ce premier volet, nous allons nous pencher sur la mise en place de la surveillance de ce monde et sur la vie quotidienne des bordels.

An obscenity is any utterance or act that strongly offends the prevalent morality of the time. It is derived from the Latin obscēnus, obscaenus, "boding ill; disgusting; indecent", of uncertain etymology. The word can be used to indicate strong moral repugnance and outrage, in expressions such as "obscene profits" and "the obscenity of war". As a legal term, it usually refers to graphic depictions of people engaged in sexual and excretory activity, and related utterances of profane speech. United States obscenity law. In the United States, issues of obscenity raise issues of limitations on the freedom of speech and of the press, which are otherwise protected by the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. Federal obscenity law in the U.S. is unusual in that there is no uniform national standard. Former Justice Potter Stewart of the Supreme Court of the United States, in attempting to classify what material constituted exactly "what is obscene," famously wrote, "I shall not today attempt further to define the kinds of material I understand to be embraced ... but I know it when I see it...." In the United States, the 1973 ruling of the Supreme Court of the United States in Miller v California established a three-tiered test to determine what was obscene—and thus not protected, versus what was merely erotic and thus protected by the First Amendment. Delivering the opinion of the court, Chief Justice Warren Burger wrote: The basic guidelines for the trier of fact must be: (a) whether the average person, applying contemporary community standards, would find that the work, taken as a whole, appeals to the prurient interest, (b) whether the work depicts or describes, in a patently offensive way, sexual conduct specifically defined by the applicable state law; and (c) whether the work, taken as a whole, lacks serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value. Non image-based obscenity cases in the U.S. While most recent (2016) obscenity cases in the United States have revolved around images and films, the first obscenity cases dealt with textual works. The classification of "obscene" and thus illegal for production and distribution has been judged on printed text-only stories starting with Dunlop v U.S. (1897), which upheld a conviction for mailing and delivery of a newspaper called the Chicago Dispatch, containing "obscene, lewd, lascivious, and indecent materials", which was later upheld in several cases. One of these was "A Book Named John Cleland's Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure" v Attorney General of Com. of Massachusetts, "(1966)" wherein the book "Fanny Hill", written by John Cleland in 1760, was judged to be obscene in a proceeding that put the book itself on trial rather than its publisher. Another was Kaplan v California, (1973) whereby the court most famously determined that "Obscene material in book form is not entitled to any First Amendment protection merely because it has no pictorial content." In 2005, the U.S. Department of Justice formed the Obscenity Prosecution Task Force in a push to prosecute obscenity cases. Red Rose Stories, a site dedicated to text-only fantasy stories, became one of many sites targeted by the FBI for shutdown. The government alleged that Red Rose Stories contained depictions of child rape. The publisher pleaded guilty. Extreme pornographer Max Hardcore served 30 months of a 46-month prison sentence for obscenity. Many U.S. states have had bans on the sale of sex toys, regulating them as obscene devices. Some states have seen their sex toy bans ruled unconstitutional in the courts. That ruling leaves only Mississippi, Alabama, and Virginia with current bans on the sale of obscene devices. Literature (non-fiction) communicating contraceptive information was prohibited by several states. The last such prohibition, in Connecticut, was overturned judicially in 1965. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/law-school/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/law-school/support
We start with a tragedy, then a cautionary tale of the world not ready for a band. We then find more positive inspiration from an artist who delivers a huge seller. We end with a legend. Janis Joplin dies just before releasing her magnum opus, “Pearl.” A band called Fanny is ready to rock, but a culture poisoned by the patriarchy isn't yet ready to accept them. Carole King makes Tapestry, a sincere, modest, and deeply personal album that hits huge and becomes a milestone for women. We complete the story with a profile of one of the giants of 20th Century Music, Joni Mitchell. We discuss her artistic and commercial peak in the early 70s with “Blue,” “For the Roses,” and “Court and Spark.” We admire all of these women for kicking down the door, and we celebrate the progress we've made since them, but there is still a long way to go. Now for some general remarks about the research and writing.To the best of our ability, we tried to center women in this chapter. We'll leave it to the listener to decide how we did with that.There's a diversity of opinion about this, but we think it's fair to say the second wave of feminism hits the crest during the period we are covering, and it is not at all a coincidence that women really start to make big and important contributions to Rock Music right around this time too. Roe vs Wade was decided right around here, about fifty years ago. We are painfully aware of the US Supreme Court's recent decision to overturn Roe, stripping many millions of American women of their fundamental human rights to bodily autonomy and medical privacy.As we move forward with our chapters, we will document that half century of regressive backlash and how it got us here; it's part of the story. Like we often say, Rock N Roll reflects back on, interacts with, and affects the larger society. And vice versa. In the late Sixties and early Seventies, it seemed like the progress would be permanent, and that more progress was on the way. Some of us were naive enough to believe that. We would do well now to remember the words of the anti slavery activist Frederick Douglass, way back in 1857: This struggle may be a moral one, or it may be a physical one, and it may be both moral and physical, but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will.

In this episode I talk about John Cleland's Fanny Hill or a Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure. It's the first work in English to be censured for causing offence - perhaps not surprising since it's also the first pornographic novel written in English. The version of the text is that edited by Peter Wagner and first published by Penguin in 1985 - it's based on the original two-volume novel (1748-9), not the expurgated version (broken up into 11 letters, instead of the original 2) or any of the various illustrated versions that began appearing in the 1760s. Content Notes: This episode includes discussions of sex (between women, between men and women - including group sex, and between men), flagellation, defloration, non-consensual sex, prostitution, abortion, miscarriage, women's and children's bodily autonomy, incest, and Americans and guns. It also includes occasional use of four-letter words that some might find objectionable.

On this VERY special episode of the podcast, we are celebrating not only our 60th episode of the pod, but also the 32nd birthday of our very own, Jonny DiVito. And what matter to celebrate Jonny's birthday than with some Fanny? If you ain't heard of Fanny, you're in for a treat. They are an insanely hard rocking band from the '70s that have been buried in history, and we decided to honour them the only way we know how... Talking about aliens for an hour then squeezing in the album into the last 15 minutes. We're so sorry, Fanny. We tried. You guys rock. Also aliens are among us and Batman sits at the kids table next to Bigfoot at the Intergalactic Council. Thanks for sticking with us for 60 episodes! This is a music podcast, sorta.

In this short episode I explain why the Fanny Hill episode will be two weeks late. Content Note: This episode includes discussion of abortion (Roe v Wade), miscarriage, women's rights, and sexuality.
Lisa Petrucci of Something Weird Video joins Django Nudo and the Smut Peddler to discuss the career of David F. Friedman, whose theme week it is on Cultpix. (We completely forget to mention that Cultpix is now on JustWatch and PlayPilot!). The Prime Time(1958) - Friedman's debut films had all the hallmarks of the things that would characterise his exploitation oeuvre (spanking!) and showed how much he had learned from film maker showman Kroger BabbThe Defilers(1965) - Friedman "brought his own personal quirks, or fetishes or things he would be passionate about, whether it be carnivals, spanking or whipping to his films," say Lisa. So too in this film about two juvenile delinquents who date and degrade women. He invented the term 'roughie', but also his 'best film alongside She Freak.'The Notorious Daughter of Fanny Hill(1966) - A period piece, for which Dave probably borrowed costumed from one of the major studios. One of only two films his 'discovery' Stacy Walker starred in. The Brick Dollhouse(1967) - More of a crime story, but with flashbacks where everyone is nude. "The pot party orgy scene is the most tame orgy you have ever seen," laughs Lisa, or a pot party through the eyes of a middle-aged square man.Space Thing ( 1968) - "The worst sci fi film ever made," said Friedman. "It makes Plan 9 seem like Citizen Kane." Judge for yourselves. She Freak(1967) - "She Freak is almost a documentary," says Lisa, as all of the carnival scenes were shot at a real carnival. The dazzling new 4K restoration by AGFA, "just makes your eyes happy." Probably Friedman's most mainstream film, which he put his heart and soul into. Thar She Blows! (1968) - A provocative title, to say the least, but it is David F Friedman coming up with a new theme for showing people getting naked: Boat Sex (with castration!).The Head Mistress(1968) - Dave going back to historical nudies. Dave liked to bring a bit of 'fanciness' to his films, this one based on The Decameron. Brand of Shame (1968) - One of 4-5 films Dave made in 1968 and not one of Lisa's favourite films - despite featuring the original Django Nudo!The Lustful Turk(1968) - At the time it was the most expensive adult film ever made! Features spanking (of course).That's Sexploitation (2013) - Directed by Frank Henenlotter (Basket Case) it was a group effort to tell the story of exploitation cinema. It was the last thing Something Weird did with Dave and also the last film of Mike Vraney before his cancer diagnosis. Lisa also reveals the time she wore a nurse uniform and handed out sex ed leaflets to audiences. There is also a Swedish TV special with Dave and Mike. Lastly there is the time Dave dropped acid with Cary Grant! Plus an exclusive on Dave Friedman's unpublished book. Don't miss the Friedman Spotify playlist.
Classique de la littérature érotique, Mémoires de Fanny Hill, femme de plaisir (Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure, 1748-49) narre les frasques d’une jeune femme pauvre, réduite à faire commerce de son corps pour vivre. Interprété par Astrid Tenon, joliment illustré par Rebekkamour, cet extrait met en scène Fanny et Phoebe dans une mise en son de Marc Pernet. Pour l’occasion, Marc fait le choix d’un environnement sonore 100% filles: samples de la grande prêtresse et militante L des 90s Skunk Anansie, et des electro punkettes canadiennes Lesbians on Ecstasy. Egalement, en manière de contre-point au texte, des extraits de The Cheat (1931), film de George Abbott avec Tallulah Bankhead, une des toutes premières icônes L hollywoodiennes. The Cheat est connu pour être l’un de ces films de la pre code era - l’époque bénie où Hollywood n’était pas encore passé au Karsher de la bien-pensance.
Since Fernanda and I have started this podcast we have made new friends. Our little dream of building a community around the local rock scene has become true. Every day, we're joined by new people of goodwill sharing the same passion for amplified music. It happens that those people are most of the time also very cool and funny and it's not only our musical community who is growing but also our circle of friends. Just like Brinley Amicon, Charles Horin, the bass player for Analog Party is one of them. Fernanda brought Analog Party on the podcast at the very beginning of our adventure (EPISODE 6: https://anchor.fm/hangingonsunset/episodes/Season-1---Episode-6--Analog-Party---Stop-saying-Rock-is-dead-enl7rq). I didn't know them before but I've come to love their music and also greatly enjoy the company of both Animaan, the singer, and our co-host today, Charles. So when Fernanda and I decided we'd do something different for the holiday season, I didn't think twice before involving Charles. He's a skilled musician, a good music critic and connoisseur, a fine analyst of the local scene but also, he's very funny and silly, which are two qualities that I needed for this Holiday Special episode. I tested positive to COVID-19 on December 10th so we decided to do this episode over zoom while Charles was in Florida. We tackled very critical questions like: « Is this a Christmas or a Hanukkah episode? », « Are you a truck-type of guy? ». See, very important questions… More seriously, once we awakened we talked about the podcast and tried to reflect on how beneficial it has been for our community during the last year. We also talked about songwriting methods and shared our insecurities about creating new music. Ultimately we tried to uncover what makes a new band relevant and we tried to identify what makes a sonic revolution. Along the way, we've been a little geeky too, just like when we talked about the Fender VI (debating if it's more of a guitar or a bass). We also shared some personal anecdotes (for example the one about the time I pretended to be a famous French poet to make my way to a VIP Ringo Star show at the Hard Rock Cafe). But mostly we tried to remain silly and at the end of the episode, we did two games, the « Christmas gift Either / Or » and the « 1996 Hit machine blind test » where Charles had to compete against Fanny Hill (another great bass player of course, because she plays in Yard Of Blondes). Listen until the end and you'll hear a special song inspired by Charles's childhood memories… I won't say more… Have fun listening to this while cooking for your guests on New Year's eve or during your commute after your last rehearsal of the year. We wish you a very happy new year. See you all soon at a Hanging On Sunset party.

Django Nudo and the Smut Peddler celebrate the first #CultpixIRL cinema screening this past week at Bio Aspen, the groovy new retro cinema in Stockholm's new hipster district. It was a double bill of "Anita - Swedish Nymphet" (1973) and "Kyrkoherden / The Lustful Vicar" (1970), both beautifully restored by the Swedish Film Institute. Guest of honour was Christina 'Anita' Lindberg herself and the authors of the book 'Frigjorda Tider' ('Liberated Times'), who talked about the period when these films were released, a time when "porn became culture and culture became porn."Sticking with the theme of culture and porn, DN and SP discuss the Cultpix Theme Week of Literally Erotic Women. Adapting classics of literature for provided good plots, a veneer of highbrow credibility and - best of all - they were out of copyright and the authors were too dead to complain about having their works adapted with lots of boobs, bums and other bits. Chief amongst these literary smut auteurs was Mac Ahlberg, who as Bert Torn, directed six literary adaptations that can be streamed on Cultpix now, including John Cleland's "Fanny Hill" (1968) and "Jorden runt med Fanny Hill / Around the World With Fanny Hill" (1974); Anonymous' "Flossie" (1974); Marqis de Sade's "Justine & Juliette" (1975); Daniel Defoe's Moll Flanders adaptation "Molly" (1977, aka "Sex in Sweden") and Guy de Maupassant's "Bel Ami" (1977).We discuss the stars who appeared in many of these, including the lovely Maria Forså (who apparently didn't fake it), Harry Reems and how he ended up in Sweden, the on-stage sex real life couple Jack and Kim Frank, plus the director Torgny Wickman, who insisted " on painting every clit a little pinker immediately before each take.'"There is also the early US nudie cutie "Kipling's Women" (1961), which was said to be based on "A Picturization of Rudyard Kipling's Immortal Poem---The Ladies," with the priceless tagline 'They Wear Only the Wind!'. And to prevent projectionists from cutting out the nudie bits of the 35mm prints, you could send of for free photos of the six lovely ladies in questions. Finally there is also the Austro-Hungarian turn-of-the-century smut classic Josephine Mutzenbacher, with two of the dozen adaptations available on Cultpix: "Naughty Knickers/Josefine Mutzenbacher" (1970) and "Don't Get Your Knickers in a Twist/Josefine Mutzenbacher II - Meine 365 Liebhaber" (1971). Many of these films are available too in multiple English, French, German and Swedish dub. So you can not only refine your cultural credentials, but also your linguistic one, by watching these films. Just like you used to read Playboy for the articles.
In this overview, Jess traces the development of pornography in Britain from its working-class political origins with Fanny Hill to later Victorian attempts to crack down on its sale
For the 11th episode of Cultpix Radio WCPX 66.6 we announce that this autumn you will be able to watch Cultpix films in cinemas, we examine the many careers of Mac Ahlberg (aka Bert Torn) and discuss new films from Klubb Super 8, the British Film Institute and Jean-Louis van Belle. Plus no technical issues it seems! Starting on 30 August there will be a monthly series of Cultpix films showing in cinemas in Sweden and abroad, which means you can meet us, fellow Cultpix members and some of the talent behind the films. We will kick off a season of double bills with newly restored versions of Anita - Swedish Nymphet and Kyrkoherden/The Naughty Vicar at Bio Aspen in Stockholm and four other Swedish cities, as well as in cinemas abroad that we are in discussions with. Exclusive guest will be Christina Lindberg, so book your tickets as soon as they go on sale. We discuss the varied career of Mac Ahlberg, who started out as cinematographer for Swedish and Danish directors, including Bergman. you can see his Kattorna / The Cats (1965) on Cultpix. He then made his name with the erotic I, A Woman trilogy, as well as nudies such as Fanny Hill (1968) and Around the World With Fanny Hill (1974), as well as the Second Coming of Eva (1974). Four of his more hardcore films (Molly, Flossie, Justine & Juliette and Bel Ami) will be on Cultpix later this year. Ahlberg then moved to Hollywood where he worked his way up from indie films such as Re-Animator and From Beyond to big productions such as Innocent Blood, Beverly Hills Cop III and Striking Distance, as well as the Michael Jackson video Black and White. He directed two films, of which Hoodlums (1980) can be streamed on Cultpix. Sadly Ahlberg did not seem proud or keen to talk about his Swedish directing career and we debate whether it impacted his later work as DoP. Lots of new films on the site this week, including two from the British Film Institute: Sleepwalker (1984) and Voice Over (1981). We complete the Language of Love series with The XYZ of Love (1971). The first of legendary Swedish director Hans Hatwig's two films is on Cultpix, so watch the horror classic The Bleeder / Blödaren (1983) now and later this year Gröna gubbar från Y.R./Green Men from Outer Space (1986). Finally we have four films from maverick Belgian auteur Jean-Louis van Belle'sstrange, stylish and wonderful movies from the early 70's: Forbidden Paris/Paris Interdit (1970), The Lady Kills/Perverse et docile (1971), Pervertissima (1972) and The Sadist with Red Teeth/Le sadique aux dents rouges (1971). Finally we tease you with a first episode of 13 Demon Street, Condemned in the Crystal (1959). While we will have a brief summer break, there is one more episode to go with an extended interview with the amazing Lisa Petrucci of Something Weird Video. So be sure not to miss the Cultpix Radio WCPX 66.6 finale next week!
This week I talk about four works, Pamela, Anti-Pamela, Shamela, and Fanny Hill. We go from super virtue to porn in this, so prepare yourselves!
