A literary executor is a person with decision making power in respect of a literary estate. The literary estate of an author who has died will often consist mainly of the copyright and other intellectual property rights of published works, including for example film rights film and translation rights. It may also include original manuscripts of published work, which potentially have a market value unpublished work in a finished state or partially completed and papers of intrinsic literary interest such as correspondence or personal diaries and records. In academia , the German language German term Nachlass for the legacy of papers is often used. Since the literary estate is a legacy to the author s heir s, the management of it in financial terms is a responsibility of trust. The position of literary executor has more to it than the simple monetary aspect, though. Appointment to such a position, perhaps informally, is often a matter of the author s choice during his or her lifetime. If a sympathetic and understanding friend is in the position of literary executor, there can be obvious tensions what is to be managed is not just a portfolio of intellectual property, but a posthumous reputation. Wishes of the deceased author may have been clearly expressed, but are not always respected. Family members often express strong feelings about privacy of the dead. For example, biographical writing is likely to be of a quite different authority if it is carried out with access to private papers. The literary executor then becomes a gatekeeper. Examples of literary executors include Max Brod for Franz Kafka , Sir Edward Marsh polymath Edward Marsh for Rupert Brooke , Robert Baldwin Ross for Oscar Wilde , Robert Hayward Barlow for H. P. Lovecraft and Otto Nathan for Albert Einstein . If Brod had followed Kafka s expressed wishes on the destruction of his papers, Kafka s current reputation ... pt Executor liter rio ru ... more details

Strong v Bird 1874 LR 18 Eq 315 ref Ramjohn,Mohamed, Sourcebook On Trusts Law, p119 ref is an old case in English property law . It is an exception to the maxim Equity will not assist a volunteer . Rule When a donor makes an imperfect gift during his lifetime, and the donee is subsequently appointed as the donor s executor or becomes the donor s administrator on intestacy, the gift is perfected because the donee obtains legal title to the donor s property, including the subject matter of the intended gift, in the donee s capacity as executor or administrator. There are four conditions for the rule in Strong v. Bird The donor must have intended to make an inter vivos gift. Such donative intention must have persisted until the donor s death. The donee is appointed the donor s executor or administrator i.e., granted letters of administration . The subject matter of the intended gift must have been capable of enduring the death of the donor. Facts Bird borrowed 1000 from his stepmother. She is living with him and paying him for rent. It was agreed by both parties that the loan was to be repaid by a reduction in the rent, until the loan was settled. Bird s stepmother only paid the reduced rent twice. Thereafter, she paid the full rent until her death. On her death, she appointed Bird as her executor and the next of kin now attempted to recover the debt from Bird. The conduct of his stepmother stopped paying the reduced rent as per their agreement does not discharge the debt at law because there was no consideration provided for the release. The issue was whether Bird must pay back the loan. Held The appointment of Bird as the executor was an evidence that the loan to Bird was a gift to him. This is because the executor is responsible for calling in debts to the testator s estate, It would be ridiculous for the executor to sue himself for the debt. Therefore, common law rulings cancelled the debt to avoid this anomaly. Furthermore, the stepmother s donative intention had ... more details
