Abstract: The open access digital archive Primary Sources on Copyright (1450-1900), www.copyrighthistory.org , was launched in 2008, making available original source material about the history of copyright law for five national sections – Great Britain, France, German speaking countries, France and USA - each curated by a specialist national editor. The stated aim of the project was to make available primary source material that (i) opened up alternative interpretations of copyright history, (ii) illustrated the interaction of copyright with commercial and/or aesthetic developments, and (iii) evidenced influences across jurisdictions. Fifteen years later, the digital archive now spans a total of ten jurisdictions – also, the Netherlands, Spain, Jewish sources, Portugal/Brazil and the Vatican - with a further section, Scandinavia, in progress. In this public lecture, the general editors of the archive – Lionel Bently and Martin Kretschmer – will chart the development of the digital archive over the past fifteen years, and look to its future, in conversation with a panel of the archive’s current national editors.
