Well, I finally did it. Acting on the advice of an internationally recognized plagiarism expert, I have added a page to this website. It was not something I was particularly anxious to do.
It has now been a month since I discovered the article which very extensively uses material from my book. But as no proper apology has been forthcoming from the wayward professor who accomplished that task, it was deemed necessary to expose the problem in a more public way, simply as a tool of intellectual protection. Read about it here. A short discussion in an online forum with some encouraging voices of support can be found here.
Happily, the Dean of Fine Arts at Ovidius University in Constanta, Romania, acknowledged the problem a couple of weeks ago and promised to submit the case to higher academic authorities for investigation. No word on how long that will take.
I guess we'll see what happens...
