A Speech Delivered Before The Municipal Court Of The City Of Boston, In Defense Of Abner Kneeland, On An Indictment For Blasphemy is a historical book written by Andrew Dunlap in 1834. The book is a transcript of a speech given by Dunlap to defend Abner Kneeland, who was indicted for blasphemy. Kneeland was a controversial figure in Boston during the 19th century, known for his radical views on religion and his rejection of traditional Christian beliefs. Dunlap's speech argues that Kneeland's beliefs and statements, while controversial, are protected under the First Amendment of the United States Constitution. The book provides insight into the religious and political climate of Boston during the 1830s, and the ongoing debate over freedom of speech and religion in America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
