This work of a South African author was first published in South Africa and is now in the public domain because its term of copyright has expired. According to South African Copyright Act, films and photographs enter the public domain after fifty years counted from the beginning of the following calendar year after they were first published (or created, if unpublished). A South African work that is in the public domain in South Africa according to this rule is in the public domain in the U.S. only if it was in the public domain in South Africa in 1996, e.g. if it was published before 1946 and no copyright was registered in the U.S. (This is the effect of 17 USC 104A with its critical date of January 1, 1996.) |
