Summary

Description
English: One of earliest "unexpurgated" (or "complete and unexpurgated"?) editions, published in 1959, of the then-controversial Lady Chatterley's Lover by D.H. Lawrence (1885–1930). The "complete and unexpurgated" edition would then be published in the UK one year later for the first time.

Previously, the novel was first privately published to the author's subscribers in the UK, the US, and France in 1928. Then it was commercially released in abridged, heavily censored form in 1932 in the United Kingdom and the United States.

Public domain
The depicted text is ineligible for copyright and therefore in the public domain because it is not a “literary work” or other protected type in sense of the local copyright law. Facts, data, and unoriginal information which is common property without sufficiently creative authorship in a general typeface or basic handwriting, and simple geometric shapes are not protected by copyright. This tag does not generally apply to all images of texts. Particular countries can have different legal definition of the “literary work” as the subject of copyright and different courts' interpretation practices. Some countries protect almost every written work, while other countries protect distinctively artistic or scientific texts and databases only. Extent of creativeness, function and length of the text can be relevant. The copyright protection can be limited to the literary form – the included information itself can be excluded from protection.
