[DCRM-L] False vs Fictitious imprints...

[Jennifer K NELSON]

Is it because intent is important? For example, a book published at "Pooh
Corner" - obviously meant to be amusing - and a book published in "Cologne"
when the real pub place is Amsterdam, where the book is intended to be
marketed to a Catholic audience, so the place of pub is important (during
the Counter-Reformation at least). The first is fictitious, the second is
false, and there is a difference in intentionality in the use of place
