Beginning on page 284, Manguel extensively describes the attempts by Anthony Comstock to dictate what people could read and to censor books he found dangerous. Summarize what Manguel says were Comstock's motivations and strategies, and how Comstock seems to be part of a long history of censorship. (This should be at least four paragraphs and feel free to relate these ideas to Nafisi's discussion of censorship.)
