单词	Comstockery
释义	Com·stock·er·y AHD[kŏmʹstŏk'ə-rē, kŭmʹ-] D.J.[ˈkɒmˌstɒkəriː, ˈkʌm-]K.K.[ˈkɑmˌstɑkəri, ˈkʌm-]n.（名词） Censorship of literature and other forms of expression and communication because of perceived immorality or obscenity.扫黄：对被认为不道德或淫秽的文学作品或其它表现或传播此内容的形式进行查禁 Etymology语源 After Anthony Comstock 源自安东尼 Comstock 注释 Bowdlerism, named after Dr. Thomas Bowdler (1754-1825),has been around longer than Comstockery, named for Anthony Comstock (1844-1915). All Bowdler did to enter the world of common nouns was to expurgate Shakespeare, the Bible, and Gibbon'sHistory of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. On the other hand, Comstock, the organizer and secretary of the New York Society for the Suppression of Vice,helped destroy 160 tons of literature and pictures that he deemed immoral.Comstockery, the word honoring his achievements, is first recorded in 1905 in a letter by George Bernard Shaw to the New York Times: “Comstockery is the world's standing Joke at the expense of the United States. . . . It confirms the deep-seated conviction of the Old World that America is a provincial place, a second rate country-town civilization after all.” 以汤姆斯·鲍德勒博士(1754-1825年）的名字命名的鲍德勒主义，存在时间要比以安东尼·康斯托克(1844-1915年）命名的康斯托克主义长一些。鲍德勒所做的只是删节莎士比亚作品、《圣经》和吉伯恩的罗马帝国的衰落与灭亡就使其名字成为一个通用名词了。而另一方面，作为纽约反暴力社会党的组织者和秘书长，康斯托克协助销毁了160吨他认为不道德的作品与图片。Comstockery ，这一为了表彰他的成绩的词最初是出现于1905年乔治·伯那德·修在写给纽约时报的信中： “Comstockery 一词是世界对美国的嘲笑…它证实了在东半球中根深蒂固的观念，那就是美国是个粗鄙的地方，充其量只能算是一个二流的乡村文明”
