Abstract

This Paper addresses the intriguing issue of whether William Thomas Thornton plagiarized Francis Longe's (1866) pamphlet denouncing the classical wage fund doctrine. In doing so, the paper comprehensively reviews all of the corroborative evidence surrounding the plagiarism allegation laid against Thornton, drawing particular attention to a little known letter to The Times written by Thornton, in an effort to clear his good name of any impropriety. It is the conclusion of this paper that Thornton has no case to answer; the evidence not only from Thornton's own early work on wages and trade unions, together with additional corroborative evidence suggests that far from having plagiarized Longe's (1866) work, Thornton apticipated many of his ideas.

领先一步:桑顿对朗格

本文探讨了威廉·托马斯·桑顿(William Thomas Thornton)是否抄袭了弗朗西斯·朗格(Francis Longe, 1866年)谴责经典工资基金主义的小册子这一有趣的问题。在此过程中，该报全面审查了围绕针对桑顿的剽窃指控的所有确凿证据，特别关注了桑顿写给时报的一封鲜为人知的信，这封信是为了洗清他的好名声，没有任何不当行为。本文的结论是，桑顿没有理由回答;这些证据不仅来自桑顿自己关于工资和工会的早期著作，还有其他确凿的证据表明，桑顿非但没有抄袭朗格(1866)的著作，反而欣赏了他的许多思想。
