  • Anonymous works are works, such as art or literature, that have an anonymous, undisclosed, or unknown creator or author. In the United States it is legally defined as "a work on the copies or phonorecords of which no natural person is identified as author. " In the case of very old works, the author's name may simply be lost over the course of history. In such cases the author is often referred to as Anonymus, the Latin form of "anonymous". In the case of works where the creator's name is kept secret, the author's reasons may vary from fear of persecution to protection of his or her reputation. In 2007 The Washington Post published an article by an anonymous author describing the use of national security letters by the FBI. In this case, the author, who would have preferred to be named, was legally prohibited from disclosing his or her identity.
  • Als Anonymes Werk bezeichnet man im Urheberrecht ein Werk ohne Urheberbezeichnung, also ein Werk, das nicht namentlich gekennzeichnet ist. Da man bei anonymen Werken den Urheber nicht kennt oder kennen soll, knüpfen Vorschriften, die über die Dauer des urheberrechtlichen Schutzes entscheiden, üblicherweise nicht an das Todesdatum des Urhebers an, sondern an den Zeitpunkt der Erstveröffentlichung. Sinn dieser Normen, die in Deutschland bis auf das Jahr 1870 zurückgehen, ist es an sich, dem Nutzer Rechtssicherheit zu verschaffen. Es bestehen trotzdem große rechtliche Unsicherheiten für die potenziellen Verwender anonymer Werke. Anonyme Werke dürfen nicht mit verwaisten Werken verwechselt werden.
