On the basis of institutional and poetological analyses of legal trials concerning literature held in South Africa during the period 1910–2010, this study describes how the battles fought in and around the courts between literary, judicial, and executive elites eventually led to a constitutional exceptio artis (artistic freedom) for literature.
