Johann G. Fichte published in 1793 a defense of the copyrights. His argumentation is structured upon the concepts of the “matter” of the book (the material it´s made of, its design, etc.) and its “form” (the ideas which are expressed in it). Fichte argues that the author is the owner of the “form” of the book and that, because of this, the reprinting of the book without his permission is not fair. In this paper I will try to show that the categories of “form” and “matter” can be fully understood in the light of the distinction established by Fichte between alienable and not alienable rights.
