You may freely use them verbatim or in any modified form that you wish. The text and content (including all diagrams and illustrations) of the 1847 work (and of any other work published in 1847) are in the public domain in the US and everywhere in the world. However, the presentation of the propositions will be entirely different in that I want to minimise text, and maximise visual (animated) proofs of each proposition.Ĭan someone advise me on whether I need to get copyright permission from the authors/creators of any of the above renditions? Or am I in the clear, considering the unique style in which I want to present each proposition? (although not exactly the same) to this rendition of Byrne's Euclid. However, I intend to essentially animate each proposition in a manner that is most similar in colour, style, fonts, etc.

Fwsim and copyright laws on youtube series#
I am only just starting to get familiarised with copyright and fair-use policies, so I just want to make sure that my video series doesn't violate any copyright laws.Īs far as I understand, considering its publication date, the copyright on Byrne's Euclid itself would be long expired and thus it would be in the public domain. The following are modern renditions of Byrne's Euclid: 1, 2, 3, and 4. I want to create a mathematics educational video series on YouTube based on "Byrne's Euclid" (1847), which in turn, was a rendition of "Euclid's Elements" (circa 300 BC).
