It is doubtful that copyright was 'invented' by one person. The term originated in Great Britain during the advent of the printing press, the idea behind copyright thought out by the people worried that their works could be easily reproduced by other people. The Statute of Anne in 1710 made copyright something that was regulared by the government.
