She explores how artists and writers together with lawyers and economists represented this transformation through narrative and metaphor. Drawing on a range of legal, literary and visual texts, she shows how the corporation's public origins as well as its fundamentally collective nature continued to be relevant much longer than previous scholarship has argued.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stefanie Mueller\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1399505009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781399505000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/13\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.07lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.56d","brand":"Stefanie Mueller","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44075663425791,"sku":"9781399505000","price":110.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cfe55bd4-76b4-4b31-8359-e9f9be42fc29.jpg?v=1685460739","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-corporation-in-the-nineteenth-century-stefanie-mueller-9781399505000","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
