Zusammenfassung: | Long before Citizens United and modern debates over corporations as people, such organizations already stood between the public and private as both vehicles for commerce and imaginative constructs based on groups of individuals. In this book, John O'Brien explores how this relationship played out in economics and literature, two fields that gained prominence in the same era. Examining British and American essays, poems, novels, and stories from the seventeenth through the nineteenth centuries, O'Brien pursues the idea of incorporation as a trope discernible in a wide range of texts. |

Introduction: the corporation as metaphor -- John Locke, desire, and the incorporation of money -- Wonderful event: the South Sea bubble and the crisis of property -- Insurance and the problem of sentimental representation -- "Bodies of men": abolitionist writing and the question of interest -- Held in reserve: banks, serial crises, and the ekphrastic turn -- Coda: the entrepreneur as corporate hero. Print version record. Long before Citizens United and modern debates over corporations as people, such organizations already stood between the public and private as both vehicles for commerce and imaginative constructs based on groups of individuals. In this book, John O'Brien explores how this relationship played out in economics and literature, two fields that gained prominence in the same era. Examining British and American essays, poems, novels, and stories from the seventeenth through the nineteenth centuries, O'Brien pursues the idea of incorporation as a trope discernible in a wide range of texts.
