From the Providence of Kings to Copyrighted Things (and French Moral Rights)	1999	34	.pdf	application/pdf	17741	990	64	[Vol. 9:2 FROM THE PROVIDENCE OF KINGS The four separate and independent rights as previously mentioned are (1) the French droit de divulgation, which is the right of the author to decide whether or not the work is to be published; (2) the droit de retrait (ou de repentir), which is the author's right to withdraw the work from publication or to modify it even after it has been made public; 6 (3) the droit a la patemite, or the right of the author to have his name always associated with the work and to be acknowledged as its creator, as well as to disclaim authorship of works falsely attributed to him; and (4) the droit a l'integrite, which provides the author with the right to protect the author's work from alteration, mutilation, and excessive criticism without permission.17 The goal of this article is to go a step further than anyone has dared to go in the effort to trace the judicial origins of French moral rights by looking at the earliest French cases where the individual rights themselves were articulated or cases where the underlying policy of protecting more than economic rights of authors was advanced. The Method and Madness of French Case Reports Tracing French moral rights back to their judicial roots does present several noteworthy research and analytical challenges.	cache/iiclr-17468.pdf	txt/iiclr-17468.txt
