Stationers' Company
Définition
- The Stationers' Company, more formally known as the Worshipful Company of Stationers and Newspaper Makers, is a trade association dating back to 1403. It received a royal charter from Queen Mary on May 4, 1557, and until modern times maintained a printing monopoly among its members, enforced copyright, and was empowered to seize “offending books,” whose authors and/or printers could be forced to appear before both secular and ecclesiastical authorities.
