Method of driving a liquid crystal display such as a ferroelectric liquid crystal display by multiplex addressing. The display has a pair of bases. A transparent electrode layer and an orientation film are formed in this order on each base. The two bases are placed opposite to each other with a certain gap between them. A ferroelectric liquid crystal material is inserted in the gap. Let Vthlow be the voltage applied when the transmittivity of the liquid crystal material begins to change. Let Vthhigh be the voltage applied when the transmittivity of the liquid crystal material substantially assumes its maximum value. First and second select pulses of opposite polarities are applied to the liquid crystal material. Let Vs1 be the voltage of the first select pulse. Let Vs2 be the voltage of the second select voltage. This method is characterized in that Vs1=±(Vthlow-DELTAV), where DELTAV>0, and that Vs2=∓(Vthhigh+DELTAV), where DELTAV>0.
