Sobre IBD

From the origins of modern copyright in early eighteenth-century culture to the efforts to represent nature and death in postmodern fiction, this book explores a series of problems regarding the containment of representation. By examining specific cases in which representation is delimited by the law, Crimes of Writing provides an overview of the theoretical issues arising once language is seen as a matter of property and authorship is viewed as a matter of originality.
