From its inception in 1790, American copyright law offered no or less-than-perfect protection for works published abroad-to the fury of Charles Dickens, among others, who sometimes received no money from vast sales in the United States. American publishers avoided ruinous competition with each other through "courtesy of the trade," a code of etiquette that gave informal, exclusive rights to the first house to announce plans to issue an uncopyrighted foreign work. The climate of trade courtesy, lawful piracy, and the burdensome rules of American copyright law profoundly affected transatlantic writers in the twentieth century. Drawing on previously unknown legal archives, Robert Spoo recounts efforts by James Joyce, Ezra Pound, Bennett Cerf, the founder of Random House, and others to crush piracy, reform U.S. copyright law, and define the public domain. 000027548 650_0 $$aLaw and literature. 000027548 650_0 $$aCopyright$$zUnited States. 000027548 650_4 $$aPublic Domain 000027548 650_4 $$aCopyright 000027548 650_6 $$aDroit et littérature. 000027548 650_6 $$aDroit d'auteur$$zÉtats-Unis$$xHistoire. 000027548 650_6 $$aDroit d'auteur international$$xHistoire. 000027548 651_0 $$aAmerica$$xCommerce$$xLaw and legislation. 000027548 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xCommerce$$xLaw and legislation. 000027548 7001_ $$aSpoo, Robert E.,$$eVerfasserIn. 000027548 830_0 $$aModernist Literature & Culture. 000027548 903__ $$aModernist Literature & Culture 000027548 942__ $$2ddc$$cMON 000027548 952__ $$w2015-05-27$$p2015-0101$$r12.64$$u42059$$bMAIN$$10$$kG 723 SPO.W$$v2015-05-27$$zTagged$$70 000027548 980__ $$aBIB 000027548 999__ $$c29989$$d29989
