<abstract xmlns="http://eprints.org/ep2/data/2.0">It is a new Italian translation of Kant's "Von der Unrechtmäßigkeit des Büchernachdrucks" (1784). Kant did not recognize any intellectual property on ideas, but explained copyright only as a personal relationship between a principal (the author) and an agent (the publisher), who speaks in the name of the former. But to do so, he needs a mandate from the author. "Nachdruck" means "reprint", not "reproduction": the scope of Kant's argument is only printing, not copying in general.
Translation by Maria Chiara Pievatolo.</abstract>
