Excerpt from Treatise on the Law of Copyright: Books, Dramatic and Musical Compositions, Letters and Other Manuscripts, Engravings and Sculpture, as Enacted and Administered in England and America; With Some Notices of the History of Literary Property It is very important to keep this distinction in view, because those who have maintained that lite rary property has no foundation but in the municipal code, have drawn most of their arguments against it from the naked law of nature, without perceiving, or without choosing to perceive, that it may derive its existence from those broad and comprehensive principles, which govern the relations of man in so ciety, and which, although they have originated in the merely natural rights of man, extend their found etions to the support of his social condition.
