The phrase itself is almost meaningless, asStephanie Bird, among others, points out: “Self-plagiarism is not possible, since ‘plagiarism’refers to claiming the words and ideas of another as one’s own.”2The concept is not, as some suggest, “a relatively new evil.”3 As Callahan notes, it can be tracedback more than a century, to an 1893 letter submitted to the Atlantic Monthly.4 Current timeshave seen a renewed interest, perhaps due to the emergence of detection software used by manyjournals to identify plagiarized material.A review of the rather substantial literature shows that self-plagiarism, or
