tt le R ev ie w s 2 9 3 fees for outofcopyright works; publishers who make false assertions of copyright in government publications, even in law school editions of the US Constitution; media corporations that claim to be able to license excerpts of works that they own despite the provisions of the (admittedly vague) “fair use” clause in longestablished copyright laws; and the heirs and estates of writers who claim control of all uses made of the published and unpublished words of their fathers, aunts, and so forth. Publishers collude in this now rampant abuse of public access to cultural goods by insisting that authors of fiction and nonfiction works undertake to clear copyright to material borrowed from sources, a laborious process for which most writers are ill equipped. The result is that key evidence in scholarly work is often simply left out. In documentary film, the effects of copyfraud can be seen only in those films that are not made: the industry convention — “when in doubt, obtain a license” — makes many subjects financially and practically unviable. This book should have been a wakeup call, when it appeared a decade ago, for all involved in what is now called “cultural production” to reassert their rights, and the rights of the public, to free access to material that is not and never will be privately owned. Alas, Mazzone’s detailed chapters on what ought to be done next have remained dead letters. It is time to reread them and to heave the ball back down the false mountain of improper claims of ownership made by corporations and individuals who know what they are doing and know they can get away with it. This laudably clear, direct, and readable book brings to mind an old English rhyme that remains as relevant today as it ever was: The law doth punish man or woman / That steals the goose from off the common / But lets the greater felon loose / Who steals the common from the goose. — David Bellos doi 10.1215/0961754X-9809291
版权所有作品的版权转让费；在政府出版物中，甚至在法学院版的美国宪法中，对版权进行虚假断言的出版商；媒体公司声称，尽管长期存在的版权法中有“合理使用”条款的规定（诚然很模糊），但他们仍然可以许可自己拥有的作品的摘录；以及声称控制其父亲、姑姑等已出版和未出版文字的所有用途的作家的继承人和遗产。出版商通过坚持小说和非小说作品的作者承诺清除从来源借来的材料的版权，在这种现在猖獗的滥用公众获取文化产品的行为中相互勾结，这是一个艰巨的过程，大多数作家都没有能力做到这一点。其结果是，学术工作中的关键证据往往被简单地忽略了。在纪录片中，抄袭的影响只能在那些没有制作的电影中看到：行业惯例——“当有疑问时，获得许可证”——使许多主题在经济和实践上都不可行。当这本书在十年前出版时，它本应该是一个警钟，让所有参与现在所谓的“文化生产”的人重申他们的权利，以及公众的权利，自由获取不是也永远不会是私人拥有的材料。遗憾的是，Mazzone关于下一步应该做什么的详细章节仍然是一纸空文。是时候重读它们了，是时候把球从那些知道自己在做什么并知道自己可以逍遥法外的公司和个人提出的不当所有权主张的虚假山上扔下来了，这本可读的书让人想起了一首古老的英语押韵，它在今天仍然与以往一样重要：法律惩罚男人或女人/从普通人那里偷鹅/但让更大的重罪犯逍遥法外/从鹅那里偷鹅。——David Bellos doi 10.1215/0961754X-9809291
