A quick definition of imprimatur:
Imprimatur: A special permission needed to print a book. It used to be required in England, but now it's not used much in countries that control what can be printed. It's like a stamp of approval that says the book is okay to print.
A more thorough explanation:
Imprimatur is a Latin word that means "let it be printed." It has two meanings:
- A license that is needed to publish a book. In the past, this license was required in England, but now it is only used in countries that censor the press.
- A general approval or permission to do something.
