Hamlet without the Prince

There's a book about the motoons due out in November from Yale University Press: "The Cartoons That Shook the World", by Danish-born author Jytte Klausen. Except that it won't actually include the cartoons themselves....

What’s more, they suggested that the Yale press also refrain from publishing any other illustrations of the prophet that were to be included, specifically, a drawing for a children’s book; an Ottoman print; and a sketch by the 19th-century artist Gustave Doré of Muhammad being tormented in Hell, an episode from Dante’s “Inferno” that has been depicted by Botticelli, Blake, Rodin and Dalí.
