The author of any work
published in Switzerland is alone
to enjoy the privilege that
for a period of ten years no
translation of his work that hasn't

published in the other country.
This period will be taken to begin

registered in France by making
an application within three
months of its first publication
in Switzerland, in accordance
with the provisions of Art. 3;
2) the author must indicate at
the head of his work that he
is reserving for himself the right
of translation;
3) the given translation, authorised
by him, must have appeared in full
