Plagiarism and Literary Property in the Romantic Period is a non-fiction book written by Tilar J. Mazzeo.

Also, Mazzeo shows that concern about the ethics, legality and morality of plagiarism has its origins during the Romantic era.

In style and methodology, Ms. Mazzeo's new book is an academic wheezer, a retooled dissertation perhaps, but it's also [intelligent] and insightful, and points out that 18th-century writers took a certain amount of borrowing for granted.

She was the Jenny McKeon Moore Writer in Residence in the Creative Writing and English program at George Washington University from 2010 to 2011.

She was the editor of digital scholarly editions at Romantic Circles from 2005 to 2019 and has been featured as a preeminent teacher of creative/narrative nonfiction with the Teaching Company / Great Courses.
