Is Copyright Perpetual?: An Examination Of The Origin And Nature Of Literary Property

In this groundbreaking 1893 work, Eaton Sylvester Drone challenges the prevailing view that literary property is inherently perpetual and unalienable. Drawing on legal, historical, and philosophical sources, Drone argues that copyright is a social construct that must be continually renegotiated in light of changing social and technological factors. His arguments remain relevant to contemporary debates around intellectual property law.
