Reuse + attribution

License

Three things on this site, each under its own license: the Conway text, my commentary, and the code. None of it is fenced.

The Conway Edition text

Public Domain Mark 1.0. The 1900–1902 Conway Edition entered the public domain long ago. Reproduce, redistribute, translate, adapt, perform, recite, or quote any work in whole or in part, for any purpose, without permission and without fee. No attribution is legally required. As a courtesy, scholarly reuse should cite the printed edition; where the digital text matters (page anchors, footnote linkage), include the work's URL on this site for stable retrieval. Templates at how to cite.

Editorial commentary

CC BY-SA 4.0. Everything I've written — blog posts, bibliography annotations, glossary entries, manuscript-watch notes, classroom guidance, the editor's introduction, this page — is under CC BY-SA 4.0. Quote, adapt, and republish, including commercially, on two terms:

  • Attribute me and link the source page.
  • Share alike — distribute adaptations under CC BY-SA 4.0.

If a passage isn't inside one of Paine's works, it's mine, and CC BY-SA applies.

The site code

MIT License. Templates, build scripts, CSS, and JavaScript are all MIT. Fork the repo at github.com/jonajinga/filthy-little-atheist, copy the architecture for your own author archive, or vendor any individual file. Full license in LICENSE at the repository root.

Third-party assets

  • EB Garamond + Inter served by Bunny Fonts. Both fonts are SIL Open Font License 1.1.
  • Leaflet 1.9 (timeline + lecture-tour map) — BSD 2-Clause.
  • D3 v7 (concept graph, topic map) — ISC.
  • tippy.js (glossary tooltips) — MIT.
  • Pagefind (search index) — MIT.
  • OpenStreetMap tiles on the map surfaces — ODbL; attribution is rendered in the map control.

What you don't need permission for

  • Reading any work in the archive.
  • Copying a paragraph, a chapter, or a whole work into a research paper, blog post, classroom handout, or a book of your own.
  • Linking to a paragraph, page, or quote anchor on this site.
  • Reproducing the OG card or favicon on a page about this archive.
  • Mirroring the entire site — text, code, and editorial — somewhere else, provided you respect the three licenses above.
  • Forking the codebase to publish a different author's archive.

What does need attribution

  • Republishing or adapting the editorial commentary (CC BY-SA 4.0): cite the editor + link the source page; share-alike.
  • Reusing the site code (MIT): retain the copyright + license notice in derivative source.

Trademark

"Filthy Little Atheist" is the nickname Paine's contemporaries gave him; I use it as the project name. I claim no trademark and don't object to others using it in scholarly or editorial work. The code and commentary are licensed for reuse; the project name and my signature are not — please don't pass off a fork as the original site.

Questions

If you're not sure whether what you want to do falls inside one of the three licenses, write to me. My bias is permissive; the answer is almost always yes.
