Abstract
In this introduction, the topic of limits to the freedom of expression about the past is presented. Offering a menu of options, I attempt to give an impression of this complicated field revolving around the deceptively simple question : what can we say about the past ? I briefly raise each of the topics of this Special Issue, explaining where they deliver an innovative contribution to this question.
