Traces the varied meanings of blasphemy throughout Western law. Leonard Levy argues that while past sanctions against the crime have inhibited all manner of cultural, political, scientific, and literary expression, we also pay a price for our extraordinary expansion of the scope of permissible speech. We have become, he charges, not only a free society but one that is “numb” to outrage.
