First published in 1992, Authorship and Copyright traces the
history of constructions of authorship as a legal reality. It
offers an alternative to the two mainstream interpretations that
have traditionally been assigned to authorship: the Romantic
dialectical 'birth of the author' or the language-based
post-structuralist 'death of the author.' Saunders examines the
shortcomings of both schemes by arguing that they impose an
arbitrary philosophical direction on the history of authorship and
the law of copyright. Saunders addresses the issues relating to
copyright and the construction of authorship as a legal status.
Combining information and polemic, the author explores such matters
as the historical and theoretical relations of copyright and the
droit moral, the aestheticization of the law and the juridification
of aesthetics, and the argument that authorship as a legal reality
is a historically contingent and variable arrangement that cannot
be separated from its cultural and juridical context. This book
will be of interest to students of law, literature and philosophy.
