摘　　要：同人文作品是作者独立创作出来的智慧财产,应享有独立的版权法律保护地位。但是,同人文作品与原著作品之间的虚构角色版权保护问题,成为了同人文作品发展的"阿喀琉斯之踵"。从论述同人文作品发展入手,发现同人文作品所产生的法律问题。在此基础上,得出同人文作品与原著作品的虚构角色版权保护问题是其焦点问题,进而通过研究美国司法界提出的"充分描述"标准理论与"叙述故事"标准理论,来尝试解决同人文作品与原著作品之间的虚构角色版权保护问题,以期为我国保护虚构角色版权保护问题提供有益的探索。Fan fiction should enjoy independent copyright protection,because it is a form of intellectual propertyindependently created by the author.However,the copyright protection of the fictional character both in fan fiction and the original work turns out to be the ＂Achilles’ heel＂ in the development of fan fiction.The paper firstly analyzes the development of fan fiction and the related legal issues.Based on the analysis,the paper concludes that the major issue to be addressed is the copyright protection of fictional characters in both fan fiction and the original work.Then the paper studies the ＂sufficiently delineated＂ test and the ＂story being told＂ test as put forward by the US judicial circle in solving the problem mentioned above,in the hope of proving useful experiences for solving the fictional character copyright protection problem in China.
