The notion of the author as the creator and therefore the first owner of a work is deeply rooted both in our economic system and in our concept of the individual. But this concept of authorship is modern. Mark Rose traces its formation in eighteenth-century Britain—and in the process highlights still current issues of intellectual property.

Authors and Owners is at once a fascinating look at an important episode in legal history and a significant contribution to literary and cultural history.
