Article 38 permits, without the author's consent and without remuneration but with mandatory credit to the author's name and the source, and provided the work is already known to the public: reproducing citations or fragments in written, sound, or visual form for teaching, informational, critical, illustrative, or explanatory purposes, to the extent the purpose pursued justifies; using a work, even in full where its brief length and nature justify it, as teaching illustration in publications or broadcasts; and reproducing, broadcasting, or otherwise communicating to the public any political speech, report, conference, or judicial debate, or other work of the same character, that has already been communicated or made known to the public, though including such a speech in a compiled collection of one author's works or in a collective work still requires the author's consent and remuneration.
