A Woman of Note by Cram about a woman pianist-composer whose story is partly inspired by that of Clara Schumann.
Reading a bit about how, as a performer, she improved (without authorisation) the pedestrian composition of a man, who then had 'his' work printed without acknowledging her.

The garden reflects the world. This post considers the structure of gardens, and attempts to explore, through law and literature, which elements of gardens the law chooses to protect and how those choices are made.
