Macmillan And Anr. vs Suresh Chunder Deb on 8 August, 1890

4. Copyright is thus a statutory claim, and the complaint must be established within the strict provisions of the Act. Questions have come up before Courts whether an abridgment of an original work would constitute an infringement of copyright equally, whether such abridged work could upon its own status, claim the protection of copyright. Questions have arisen whether there could be copyright in a title to a work; and whether there could be copyright in a particular arrangement of a pre-existing non-copyright material, or the publication verbatim of speeches delivered by another. Macmillan v. Suresh Chunder Eb I.L.R. 17 Cal. 951 is of particular interest, since the point involved was whether the selection and arrangement of non-copyright poems in such a work as Palgraw's "Golden Treasury" could claim protection.
