Originality or Plagiarism?

The Romanian, who himself was in vogue, could ultimately prove that those who accused him, were heavily influenced by the Russian novel (they referred to)  which had just been published in Romanian a few months before his novel was released.

Plagiarism is something that no good writer wants to be associated with. One is that any good writer is conscious that by using in the their writing of a few sentences from writers like Kafka, or Faulkner , would in the end do nothing but harm their reputation. 

However, a writer could unconsciously write under the influence of another writer for a good deal of time in spite of the fact that writers, like all the other artists, strive for originality. Keeping this in mind we can say that plagiarism is the last resort a writer would like to explore. However, writers' work could be exploited in many ways. Especially if they have their work published on the Internet.Since the Internet does not protect the copyright of any work published on it.

Much more, a published work on the Internet could be copied, altered and posted on a different site. How could a writer, whose work is inappropriately used, find this out? 
Writers are not specialists in computers. In their majority they use a computer instead of a typewriter. On top of it, no writer has the money to employ detectives to see how their work is used on the Internet. Nevertheless, good computers could detect if a work is a duplicate. I was very surprised when a computer, from a Website I posted one of my works, showed that my work was a "duplicate". Meaning that I was not the only one who claimed the ownership of that work. Is then simple to solve such a matter? Well, it might be if your work was previously published in a book format, a magazine, submitted to an International competition,  and so on. If the work was not previously published then things could turn ugly. As you could not prove that you have copyright to your own work.

Many would not pay much attention to this. Since they know that writers are interested in producing original work. And, as writers struggle to write original work who else would interfere in their business?

The answer is simple. It is not about those who have no talent but wish to have work published. It is about some of the so called "agents", ghost writers, etc., who have the skill to quickly re-write a work in the a that appears to be their own.  
On the other hand there are the lovers of poetry. They have professional blogs on which gather works from poets.

 At first one may think that the blogger intends it to promote the work of the poets. In reality, though, the blogger uses the work of writers in order to increase traffic to his/her blog as to be able to get money from advertising.
