Madison\, de l'École de droit de l'Université de Pittsburgh. Prière de confirmer votr e présence auprès de M. Francis Lord (francis.lord [at] mail.mcgill.ca). U ne demande d'accréditation a été déposée auprès du Barreau du Québec pour fins de formation continue obligatoire pour juristes. Résumé  (Disponibl e en anglais seulement). This presentation explores the meanings and funct ions of the objects of intellectual property: the work of authorship (or c opyright work) in copyright\, the invention in patent\, and the mark and t he sign in trademark. It is usually argued that the central challenge in u nderstanding the copyright work is to develop a sensible method for apprec iating its boundaries\, in the sense of its metaphorical 'metes and bounds .' The boundaries might be established by deferring to the intention of th e author\, or by constructing a sense of the work with reference to reader \, viewer\, or listener experience\, or perhaps by mediating between those two poles. The presentation re-considers the copyright work as a fundame ntal object of copyright. It rejects the premise that the purpose of inter preting the work is to properly understand its metes and bounds\, either a s a concept or as a token. The de-materialization of the work over the las t century made that project deeply problematic from the beginning of moder n copyright\, and digital technology has made it even more difficult. I a rgue instead that the idea of the work plays a central role in constructin g expressive culture itself. À propos du conférencier Michael J.
