In today's video I give a quick overview of the Carol Ann Duffy poem 'War Photographer'. For the full analysis follow this link: [ Ссылка ]

Why is part of this video blurry? I was able to obtain copyright permission for 12/15 poems in this cluster, but for the three I didn’t get (and this is one of them) I am using an ‘exception to copyright’ under the UK government rules which can be found here: [ Ссылка ]

I am using the exception listed as ‘’Fair dealing for criticism’. The document explains that ‘Fair dealing for criticism, review or quotation is allowed for any type of copyright work.’ So I am critiquing the poem, which would fall under this exception.

But that does not necessarily mean I can recreate the entire poem in the video. As the document continues:

‘Factors that have been identified by the courts as relevant in determining whether a particular dealing with a work is fair include:
* does using the work affect the market for the original work? If a use of a work acts as a substitute for it, causing the owner to lose revenue, then it is not likely to be fair
* is the amount of the work taken reasonable and appropriate? Was it necessary to use the amount that was taken? Usually only part of a work may be used.’

So my application of this is that I am not going to show the full poem on-screen, as this could affect the market for the original work (in others words people may not buy the poem because they can read it here in full). As a result, I have blurred out parts of the poem on-screen. It’s not entirely clear whether I need to do this, but I want to side with the poet who has worked so hard to create this fantastic poem, which is copyright Carol Ann Duffy.
