Tadeusz Boy-Żeleński copyright law suit against ‘Czas’The article is devoted to Tadeusz Boy-Żeleński’s special event in his writer’s career: a lawsuit, which was brought in 1927, against one of the most popular and well-known newspaper in Krakow (“Czas”) represented by its editor in chief, Antoni Beaupré. Boy-Żeleński, a great journalist, publicist and translator, published in a different newspapers a few feuilletons about his visit in Paris and then decided to reprint it in “Czas”. He was really astonished and afflicted with the fact that his work was reprinted in a different way, by cutting out some words and phrases. That was the reason why he decided to sue “Czas” for personal damages. It was probably the first copywright lawsuit in independent Poland after the I World War, which was important in the further history of changes in copyright law. The author of the article shows the main areas of the lawsuit and some circumstances which affected the public opinion in Poland at that time, as well as specific features of Żeleński’s personality and his style of writing.
