It also marked a turning point in the history of Western thinking about literary property. At once a singularly successful commercial product of the new printing industry and a repository of intellectual wealth, the Adages looks ahead to the development of copyright and back to an ancient philosophical tradition that ideas should be universally shared in the spirit of friendship. This book focuses on both the commitment to friendship and common property that Erasmus shares with his favorite philosophers—Pythagoras, Plato, and Christ—and the early history of private property that gradually transformed European attitudes concerning the right to copy. In the process it accounts for the peculiar shape of Erasmus's collection of more than 3,000 proverbs and provides readings of such ancient philosophical and religious thinkers as Pythagoras, Plato, Aristotle, Cicero, Iamblichus, Tertullian, Basil, Jerome, and Augustine. 000048008 588__ $$aOnline resource 000048008 650_0 $$aIntellectual property$$xHistory 000048008 85641 $$uhttps://doi.org/10.12987/yale/9780300087574.001.0001$$yView eBook 000048008 903__ $$aOxford Academic 000048008 904__ $$aJournal article 000048008 980__ $$aOS
