It's been rumored that the Project Gutenberg website has been doing some PC censorship of some classic literature also. We mustn't offend The Usual Suspects, eh?! :-(
You're kidding me. I always thought that Gutenberg project was a dumb thing anyway. At least the way it was sold at the beginning, it was going to make classics available to people all over the world who didn't have access to books, as if people without access to books, were a) literate, b) able to read the language the book was written in (even early English texts would be hard for many English speakers, for example) and c) had access to computers and the internet. /rant
"...b) able to read the language the book was written in (even early English texts would be hard for many English speakers, for example)"
I remember English class back in high school. (back in the Jurassic Era, when English was properly taught, literature was read and standards were high. I was actually *educated*!). The teacher had a record (a real LP record! using a prayer as an example!) of the Lord's Prayer, in modern English, then going back 1 century, 2 centuries, etc. It was pretty understandable back to about Elizabethan times (when it was the version we read in the King James Bible). Going back earlier, it became unintelligible by about the 12th century. It was a pretty good example of English, and languages in general, are dynamic, to the extent that their host culture is dynamic and free. (Which probably explains why classic Arabic supposedly hasn't changed much since the days that M & Co. were chopping off heads and pillaging in Arabia...but I digress.)
I'd guess that the 14th century works of Chaucer are probably the oldest English literature that we can readily understand today.

Speak for yourself. ;p
Even Shakespearean English is tough slogging for me. What fascinates me is the difference only a century makes. Reading stuff written in the 1800s compared to today is quite an eye-opener. It was really formal and stuffy then, as compared to today.
