Authors' rights: Authors’ rights are a part of copyright law.  The existence of authors' exclusive rights was first legally referred to in the US Constitution (1787).  Its article 1 gives to Congress the power "To promote the progress of science and useful arts, by securing for limited times to authors and inventors the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries".  The term is today considered as a direct translation of the French term droit d’auteur (also German "Urheberrecht").  It was indeed first (1777 ) promoted in France by Pierre-Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais, who had close relations with Benjamin Franklin.  It is generally used in relation to the copyright laws of civil law countries and in European Union law.  Authors' rights are internationally protected by the Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works and by other similar treaties.  Concerning "work of the spirit", “Author” is used in a very wide sense, and includes composers, artists, sculptors and even architects: in general, the author is the person whose creativity led to the protected work being created, although the exact definition varies from country to country.
