Bently & M. Kretschmer, www.copyrighthistory.org Record Images Record-ID: f_1845a Full title Rosa v. Girardin, Rouen Court of Appeal. 7 November 1845. Full title original language Rosa C. Girardin, Cour d'appel de Rouen. Du 7 novembre 1845. Abstract The Girardin case of 1845 enshrined the author's right to control whether and by whom a translation of his work was to be carried out. However, in condemning the translator who had published the work without the agreement of the original author, the judges remained somewhat ambiguous about the precise grounds for establishing this counterfeit - it was as if their decision to punish this offence stemmed as much from the real fact of identifiable damages, as from the infringement of the property right itself. The court's sentence also raised more theoretical questions about the nature of the permanent bond between the original work and its translation, and ultimately also about the further evolution of the idea/form distinction that had already been established in the eighteenth century.
