ABSTRACT
This epilogue relates the present study to the question of the private property right, including its inheritability, in the United States. U.S. legal academics, including the colleagues with whom they tend to work—in political science, philosophy, and economics—come at this question with an interest in history, but a history of a very different kind from the one elaborated in this book. One aim of this study is to contribute to the current question of private property by appealing to a history that works with different texts (notably Shakespeare and Milton), with the aid of different historiographical methodologies. Since these are texts and methodologies most tended to by humanities academics, this study aims also to demonstrate a contribution at the inter-discipline of law-and-humanities.
