Abstract

Copyright would seem to be an appropriate subject for study by the discipline of social epistemology envisaged by Shera. Social epistemology was to be concerned with the intel lectual processes of society as a whole, rather than primarily of the individual. This paper traces the development of significant terms in United Kingdom copyright: of writing, of a literary work representing intellectual skill or labour in which intellect ual property can inhere, and of a document for legal deposit. The analysis is undertaken with a tnple intention: first, to support the thesis that wnting and the faculty for intellectual labour are unifying principles for documents and computers; secondly, to place the Copyright. Designs and Patents Act 1988 in its historical context; and, thirdly, to develop the divergence between a work in which copyright can subsist and a document for deposit into a measure for the diminishing proportion of published information captured by legal deposit.
