At last, the 1709 Blog ...
Going public at this very moment is The 1709 Blog. 1709 was the year in which, according to at least some opinions, the Statute of Anne 'invented' statutory copyright. This blog proposes to celebrate copyright law in all its glory and with all its little foibles. The team is led by seasoned copyright, media and entertainment specialist John Enser, with support from this year's guest bloggers Ben Challis (Music Law Updates/Glastonbury Festival), Hugo Cox (Penguin) and Amanda Harcourt (Entertainment Rights Management Ltd), and with the assistance of consultant blogmeister Jeremy Phillips.
