wat is plagiaat

According to the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary, to "plagiarize" means
to steal and pass off (the ideas or words of another) as one's own
to use (another's production) without crediting the source
to commit literary theft
to present as new and original an idea or product derived from an existing source.


In other words, plagiarism is an act of fraud. It involves both stealing someone else's work and lying about it afterward.


But can words and ideas really be stolen?
According to U.S. law, the answer is yes. The expression of original ideas is considered intellectual property, and is protected by copyright laws, just like original inventions. Almost all forms of expression fall under copyright protection as long as they are recorded in some way (such as a book or a computer file).


All of the following are considered plagiarism:
turning in someone else's work as your own
copying words or ideas from someone else without giving credit
failing to put a quotation in quotation marks
giving incorrect information about the source of a quotation
changing words but copying the sentence structure of a source without giving credit copying so many words or ideas from a source that it makes up the majority of your work, whether you give credit or not.

de mal 1956

De Mal 1956, een hardplastic buitenstoel, heeft regenwatergaten
op de plek waar de Lounge Chair van Ray en Charles Eames knopen
heeft in de gecapitoneerde kussens.
Een designklassieker is als Goethe's Faust: hij staat open voor nieuwe interpretaties. Met die stelling verdedigde Rolf Fehlbaum, directeur van het Zwitserse Vitra, vijf jaar geleden in de NRC een nieuwe versie van dé designklassieker bij uitstek, de Lounge Chair van Charles en Ray Eames.
