Protection and Promotion: Privileges for Inventions and Books of Machines in the Early Modern Period This is a slightly altered translation of an article first published in Technikgeschichte, 1996, 63: 21–46. I am grateful to Dr Graham Hollister-Short for inviting me to make it available for publication in History of Technology and to Dr Reinhold Reith, editor of Technikgeschichte, for permission to publish. I am greatly indebted to Professor Karl-Heinz Ludwig, Bremen, for valuable information on the subject, and to Professor Carlo Poni, Bologna, who most generously afforded me access to his calendar of Venetian privileges for inventions. Research in Venice was supported by a short-term grant from the Centro Tedesco di Studi Veneziani, Venice.
