Section6.Translations, adaptations, arrangements of music, or reproductions in a new form of a literary or artistic work or several literary or artistic works collectively shall, His Majesty declares, be protected as if being originally invented literary or artistic works without prejudice to the rights of the original authors.
Section7.As for serials and novels published in journals, His Majesty prohibits their republication by anyone, either in their original languages or in translated forms, without prior permission from the authors.
This provision shall also apply to other matters in journals, if the authors or editors have expressly stated in the journals in which they are published that their republication by anyone is prohibited. In case of periodicals, His Majesty declares that such prohibition expressed in general terms at the beginning of each number is sufficient.
If without such prohibition, His Majesty declares that republication may be made, but the sources from which the matters are taken must also be mentioned. His Majesty forbids the application of this prohibition to politically discussed matters, news of the day, and miscellaneous reports.
