As Boekenmagazijn also says, there is nothing pornographic about this image.

But the writer in question is controversial. Just look at wikipedia.
A conviction for pedophilia...
The book in question was finally allowed to be published after a trial...

"Controversial" is not a criterion for refusing an item to be included in this catalog.

Incidentally, Sturges was convicted in 2021 of "statutory rape" (sex with a minor - that is definitely different from pedophilia) some 45 years earlier. He pleaded guilty and received 3 years probation. Anyway, let's get the facts right.

That's why I wrote: on the edge.
In 1998 failed attempts were made to classify his books The Last Day of Summer Nl Radiant Identities in Arkansas and Louisiana as child pornography.

"On the edge" is not over the edge. We are no stricter than courts in Arkansas or Louisiana. So, what exactly do you want to hear?

I don't want to blacken the importer, but I see that this Danish user is aware of the sensitivities of this type of material. His latest entry #9662489 he obviously censored himself.
That is actually not acceptable for me personally, an image must show the object as it is.
I don't know what the legal status of such an item is, but I would never put anything in the catalog that I can't morally defend.

In the past, not wanting to censor images was a reason not to include pornographic material in the catalog (not because of morality, but because of the desire not to offend certain search engines). That was workable until the auctions started came and the genitals still flew around you there. As far as I'm concerned, censored images are grounds for disapproval. For the rest, the adage applies, if you can own it in the Netherlands as a private individual from the legislator, it can be included.

This does mean that the administrators must always determine whether a document can be regarded as child pornography. After all, possession of child pornography is prohibited in the Netherlands.

I find that quite difficult to determine. However, the example cited by Lord Ernie does not appear to be porn. As Boekenmagazijn rightly pointed out: what's pornographic about it?

There may be a problem with magazines/newspapers. A magazine called Lolita seems to be going "over the edge."

I suspect that the publisher of that magazine is not crazy (magazine did not look like an illegal under-the-counter magazine) and that research would show that all models are of age, although of course something else is suggested to the target group. Finally, it could even be that something is allowed in the country of the importer, but not in the Netherlands. The minimum age for sex is (I thought) 15 years in Denmark compared to 16 years in the Netherlands.

But I also see that the item in question has disappeared in the bitbucket, which I personally don't consider a loss for the calalogus :)

Exactly, that also seems to me the criterion pegag vertigo
If there is serious doubt about something, then just to be sure, disapprove.

Excuse me, I should have realized that this poem (and the poet) is of course much less known in Belgium than in the Netherlands, where the last stanza in particular is somewhat of a cultural heritage. Hereby:

A people that succumbs to tyrants
All who are here together
the living, the dead,
the handbreadth that divides us is small,
we have been summoned together before the judgment...

Remember the dearest, who lies here,
the brother, friend or father,
but widen your eyes,
look upon the land and all man together,
hear this message:

We stand together before the judgment
to choose good or evil,
a nation that yields to tyrants,
will lose more than life and property,
then the light goes out.

(Hendrik Mattheus van Randwijk, 1906-1966
poet, prose writer, resistance hero, journalist)

Well comfort you, I don't know you at all, but yes I am also a cultural barbarian when it comes to poetry...
At the HBS I even always refused to make something with papers or the like if a poem was involved, take a look. I even had to do a paper on Gregorian chants at another school, well I just wrote a nice piece why I DID NOT do it...

Allerlei fornication (1971) - Polzer, Heinz H. - LastDodo is here in the Catalogue, This was described in the Newspaper some time ago (Reprint 5000 Copies I believe the whole of the Left Netherlands fell over it Shame) I bought a First Edition once in my Youth Years offered to Catawiki at a bid of 200 € it was removed by a moderator. These types of books do not belong on Catawiki? my luck at Marktplaats was sold for much more there no problem so sometimes remains a gray area

It's better to refrain from discussions like this, though… next to legislation that varies wildly in time and region is morality. What is choose what is indelicate.
