"Early Modern Conceptions of Property" examines the roots and
genealogy of conceptions of property dating back to the early
modern period. Identifying the history of intellectual property and
genetic property to that era, this book provides a stimulating and
inter-disciplinary investigation of property, its early
formulation, basis, and practice.
"Early Modern Conceptions of Property" draws together a
distinguished group of scholars from an array of disciplines,
including law, economics, politics, art history, social history and
literature in order to consider fundamental issues of property in
the early modern period. Presenting diverse, original historical
and literary case studies in a sophisticated theoretical framework,
it offers a challenge to conventional domestically focused and
land-based interpretations; examining such intangibles as
intellectual property and genetic property, terms whose roots date
back to the early modern period.
