Examines the way the corporation - a legal concept of enduring and
timely importance in the Anglo-American legal tradition - was
imagined in the nineteenth-century historical imagination. Stefanie
Mueller traces the ways in which literary and cultural
representations of the corporation in nineteenth-century America
helped shift how the corporation was envisioned; from a public tool
meant to serve the common good, to an instrument of private
enterprise. She explores how artists and writers together with
lawyers and economists represented this transformation through
narrative and metaphor. Drawing on a range of legal, literary and
visual texts, she shows how the corporation's public origins as
well as its fundamentally collective nature continued to be
relevant much longer than previous scholarship has argued.
