The Statute of Anne came into force in 1710.

The British Statute of Anne ( 1710 ) further alluded to individual rights of the artist, beginning: " Whereas Printers, Booksellers, and other Persons, have of late frequently taken the Liberty of Printing ... Books, and other Writings, without the Consent of the Authors ... to their very great Detriment, and too often to the Ruin of them and their Families :" A right to benefit financially from the work is articulated, and court rulings and legislation have recognized a right to control the work, such as ensuring that the integrity of it is preserved.

The British Statute of Anne 1710 and the Statute of Monopolies 1623 are now seen as the origins of copyright and patent law respectively.

The 1710 introduction of Statute of Anne in England ( and later copyright laws in France ) eased this situation.

The coming into force of the Statute of Anne in April 1710 marked a historic moment in the development of copyright law.

The 1710 British Statute of Anne did not apply to the American colonies, although some scholars have asserted otherwise.

The Statute of Anne differed from the 1790 Act, however, in providing a 21-year term of protection, with no option for renewal, for works already published at the time the law went into effect ( 1710 ).

This was in spite of the fact that " he Statute of Anne 1710 tried to limit this by declaring that all published works would get a copyright term of fourteen years, renewable once if the author was alive, and that all works already published ... would get a single term of twenty-one additional years.

The first copyright statute was the Statute of Anne, 8 Anne c. 19 ( 1710 ), in which Parliament granted a fourteen-year term for a copyright, renewable once.

Great Britain was the first to change this in 1710 with the Statute of Anne, which stated that authors, not publishers, had the right to claim a monopoly on the work.
