- W2898226707 abstract "David Nimmer makes a welcome return to the pages of the _Houston Law Review_ with _Queen Anne in the Emperor’s Shadow_. In the present article, neither Queen Anne nor the Statute of Anne appears directly (nor, in fact, do the Napoleanic Emperors). Rather, against the backdrop of the birth of Anglo-American copyright law in England, Nimmer explores parallel developments on the European Continent. There, both during the early years of the printing press and later, “in the shadow of the Emperor” in nineteenth-century Central Europe, Jewish rabbis helped to forge a distinctive law of copyright based not on reported cases construing a landmark statute but rather through a series of formal responsa interpreting relevant passages of Hebrew Torah. The focus of Nimmer’s exploration is a dispute concerning copyright protection for a prayer-book published outside of Frankfurt am Main in 1800. The controversy pitted the legendary Moses Sofer, Chief Rabbi of Pressburg in Slovakia, against his one-time mentor Mordekhai Banet, Chief Rabbi of Nikolsburg in Moravia. Their lengthy _responsa_, rehearsing many issues familiar to those steeped in the Anglo-American copyright tradition (term of protection, requisite notice, interface with unfair competition, incentives to create, predatory pricing, etc.), provide riveting matter for comparing and contrasting rabbinic decisionmaking processes with the practices of British and American judges in interpreting common law and the language of parliamentary and congressional enactments. The result of this parallel inquiry is “striking harmony.” Nimmer concludes with sage observations regarding the relevance of all this to more current controversies and movements, ranging from _Feist Publications, Inc. v. Rural Telephone Service Co_ to modern-day legal realism. If one were asked to describe _Queen Anne in the Emperor’s Shadow_ in brief compass, perhaps the best _responsum_ would be: “an engrossing read.”" @default.
