This book examines the cultural, historical, and rhetorical functions of forgery that extend beyond the desire to deceive and profit. Its chapters reach from antiquity to the twentieth century and cover literature and art, the two areas that predominate in forgery studies, as well as the forgery of physical books, coins, and religious relics.
