Copyright, plagiarism and all the negative connotations which accompany it
are relatively modern ideas and really are irrelevant concepts when applied
to medieval writings. I am surprised that the use of these terms are
inappropriately applied to period manuscripts with regularity. Copying may be
a 'bad' thing now but it most certainly was NOT throughout almost the
entirety of SCA period.
