  'mere articles of trade': Literary Property, Copyright, and Democracy
Cooper was also one of the first American writers forced to negotiate his rights as a successful author in the midst of an emerging discourse of authorship and literary property rights that tended to pit authors against readers and publishers.
Cooper’s early grasp of the issues is all the more evident when we consider that arguments being offered in support of international copyright law in 1838 could be "ably sustained" by a letter written twelve years before, long before there really was much public discussion of the subject at all.
Cooper seldom confined his views on issues of importance to his letters and journals, and this was true in the case of copyright law, as well.

  Cooper
The cooper used drawknives to shave off thin slivers of the wood; a wide, slightly curved one (sometimes called a heading knife) for the outside surface, and a narrow, sharply curved one (sometimes called a hollowing knife) for the inside.
The cooper would then push the head into the center of the staves, and using a tool called a heading vice, which was essentially a metal handle that was stuck into the bunghole, he would pull upward on the head.
The cooper would wrap a length of the stripping around the cask at the position it would eventually be installed, and holding his thumb on the spot where the one end crossed over on itself, he would hammer in a rivet.

 Chapter 18: Great Operations
During the operation, Cooper removed the medial end of the clavicle and a portion of the upper end of the sternum to improve the exposure, this being the first time this valuable maneuver was employed during ligation of the innominate.
Cooper's disappointment in the outcome was reflected in the brevity of his report on the operation which he mailed to the editor of the American Journal of Medical Sciences on 20 March 1859.
Cooper thought that he had done his duty by simply reporting the failure of the ligation, and that the case was closed.

Traditionally, a cooper is someone who makes wooden barrels, casks, buckets and other similar wooden objects.

Sometimes—in more modern times—the profession of the cooper is specific to wineries, where the cooper would look after the aging barrels in which the wine is stored.
