      abstract = {This paper analyzes various conditions that one spiritual  creation must provide in order to be considered an author's  work, according to the law of the United States of America.  Apart from the peculiarities that are the result of the  Anglo-Saxon concept of copyright, there are other specifics  such as the special, constitutionally provided, purpose of  copyright in promoting learning, preserving the public  domain and protecting copyright. Based on the provisions of  the Federal Copyright Act (17 U.S.C.) and examples from the  case law, the author explains how the originality of a work  is interpreted, how the condition that the work must embody  in a materialized medium is regulated and what are the  typical types of copyrighted works. In addition, the author  explains the main differences when it comes to American  Copyright system and how the concept of registration is  viewed, after the ratification of the Bern Convention,  which is one of the most common causes of the problem of  protection of works whose right holders are unknown, which  is extremely notable when speaking of the protection of  cultural heritage of marginalized groups in American  society. The paper aims to point out the similarities and  differences between the copyright of the USA and the law of  the continental legal system in terms of the conditions for  the protection of copyright works.},
