|  |  |  | Snuff: Encyclopedia II - Banned films - OverviewFor nearly the entire history of film and movie production, certain films have been either boycotted by political and religious groups or literally banned by a regime for political or moral reasons. Paradoxically, banning a movie often completely fails to achieve its intention of preventing a movie from being seen—the publicity given worldwide to banned movies often results in it being given attention it might not otherwise receive.
With the advent of the Internet, the ability of groups or governments to ban a film is hindered. High ...

|  |  |  | Snuff: Encyclopedia II - Banned films - Banning versus censoringMany governments have commissions to censor and/or rate productions for film and television exhibition. From a government standpoint, the censoring of films is more effective than banning, because it limits the scope of potentially dangerous or subversive cinema without overtly limiting freedom of speech.
In the United States, there has never been national censorship. However, currently the motion picture industry maintains the MPAA Ratings, which are issued to individual films submitted to the MPAA as a means of identifying those wit ...

|  |  |  | Snuff: Encyclopedia II - Copenhagen tobacco - HistoryGeorge Weyman, inventor of Copenhagen snuff, opened his tobacco shop in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania sometime during 1822. In April 1845, Weyman's tobacco shop was one of the few businesses to survive the Great Pittsburgh Fire. Tobacco manufacturing at Weyman's shop reached $30,000 annually by 1850. Nearly two decades later, George Weyman relinquished control of the shop to his sons William and Benjamin Weyman. Following their father's death in 1870, William and Benjamin officially adopted the name Weyman & Bro.

|  |  |  | Snuff: Encyclopedia II - Vladimir Odoevsky - Short storiesAspiring to imitate Ludwig Tieck and Novalis, Odoevsky published a number of tales for children (e.g., "The Snuff-Box Town" and "The Traveller-Frog") and fantastical stories for adults (e.g., "Cosmorama" and "Salamandra") imbued with the vague mysticism in the vein of Jakob Boehme and Louis-Claude de Saint-Martin.
Following the success of Pushkin's The Queen of Spades, Odoevsky wrote a number of similar stories on the dissipated life of Russian aristocracy (e.g., Princess Mimi and Princess Zizi). On account of his many short stories from the 1820s and 1830s, Odoevsky should be listed among the ...
