27. plagiarism [play‐jă‐rizm] the theft of ideas (such
as the plots of narrative or dramatic works) or of
written passages or works, where these are passed
off as one's own work without acknowledgement
of their true origin; or a piece of writing thus stolen.
Plagiarism is not always easily separable from
imitation, adaptation, or pastiche, but is usually
distinguished by its dishonest intention.
