What is plagiarism, and why is it such a big deal? Since
when is originality considered an indispensable attribute of
authorship? Stolen Words is a deft and well-informed history
of the sin every writer fears from every angle.
Award-winning author Thomas Mallon begins in the seventeenth
century and pushes forward toward scandals in publishing,
academia, and Hollywood, exploring the motivations,
consequences, and emotional reverberations of an intriguing
and distressingly widespread practice. In this now-classic
study, Mallon proves himself to be one of our most
versatile, original, and delightful writers.
