This informs the NIS Friday.
They have done so because they feel that the text is in the public domain. As they explain in a statement. It’s seventy years since the book first appeared. Therefore, the copyright would have expired.
The Anne Frank Fonds in Basel does not agree. The fund has already seventy years of exclusive rights to the texts of the Jewish girl who died in 1945 in Bergen-Belsen.
Decades
These rights should, according to the fund for various reasons still must remain few decades in its possession. Says the fund that Otto Frank, Anne’s father who died in 1980, co-author of the book.
In addition, the fund released the text in the eighties partially revised by co-author Mirjam Pressler who is still alive. This would theoretically cause the fund in Basel’s rights in the future after her death still decades could extend long.
New edition
The Anne Frank House in Amsterdam, which the Secret runs on the Prinsengracht, said earlier next year out to consider a new edition of the book.
The foundation and the fund, which should give every official of the copy of Anne Frank, are authorized some time on bad terms with each other after the fund again demanded the archives of Anne of the foundation, whose main purpose is to share the life and fateful end of Anne.
The French scientists Isabelle Attard and Olivier Ertzscheid appear with their action lawsuit where the Anne Frank Fonds has threatened them, not wanting to wait. They argue that it is vital that everyone can take free knowledge in the world of “this essential voice in the collective history of mankind”
