YoungNew York, New York ;London :Routledge,[2021]©20211 online resource (185 pages)Routledge research in aesthetics0-367-52183-0 Includes bibliographical references and index.The problems and the keys to their solutions -- Ontology of artworks -- Copyright and its limits -- Token appropriation -- Pattern appropriation -- Appropriation of artistic elements."This book radically rethinks the philosophical basis of copyright in the arts. The author reflects on the ontology of arts to argue that current copyright laws cannot be justified. The book begins by identifying two problems that result from current copyright laws: 1) creativity is restricted and 2) they primarily serve the interests of large corporations over the artists and general public. Against this background, the author presents an account of the ontology of artworks and explains what metaphysics can tell us about ownership in the arts. Next, he makes a moral argument that copyright terms should be shorter and that corporations should not own copyrights. The remaining chapters tackle questions regarding the appropriation of tokens of artworks, pattern-types, and artistic elements. The result is a sweeping reinterpretation of copyright in the arts that rests on sound ontological and moral foundations. Radically Rethinking Copyright in the Arts will be of interest to scholars and advanced students working in aesthetics & philosophy of art, metaphysics, philosophy of law, and intellectual property law"--Provided by publisher.Routledge research in aesthetics.CopyrightArtCopyright346.0482Young James O.1957-849486MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910827591103321Radically rethinking copyright in the arts3956586UNINA
