[edit] Summary

New redesigned book cover for 2nd edition of "Sophie Scholl and the White Rose" (Oneworld, 2006,2007). I am the author and have permission to use this image.

Though this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws, and the stricter requirements of Wikipedia's non-free content policies, because:

[edit] Fair use rationale

Non-free / fair use media rationale for Sophie Scholl
Description	This image is being used to illustrate the article Sophie Scholl and is used for informational or educational purposes only.
Source	Derived from a scan of the book cover (creator of this digital version is irrelevant as the copyright in all equivalent images is still held by the same party). Copyright held by the company or the artist. Claimed as fair use regardless.
Article	Sophie Scholl
Portion used	entire front image but no back cover or inside covers
Low resolution?	yes, meets low resolution requirements and provides only as much resolution as necessary to identify and show the style of artwork used for the article, not enough to be used for piracy.
Purpose of use	Jud Newborn, Ph.D., is a noted author, Holocaust scholar, lecturer and museum creator. In the Jud Newborn biographical entry and other articles above, this image illustrates one of the subject's authored books. The subject of that book also appears in other important Wikipedia articles (White Rose, Sophie Scholl). For the specific book entry, the image is essential. Illustrates the article Sophie Scholl which provides enough critical commentary for fair use to be applicable.
Replaceable?	No free equivalent can equal this image (any would be a derivative of this artwork) This is the only image appropriate for the 2nd edition. It is essential to the articles in question.
Other information	Image in this form is already widely distributed to identify the book so we degrade no market value by providing it ourselves.

[edit] Licensing

This image is of a book cover, and the copyright for it is most likely owned either by the artist who created the cover or the publisher of the book. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of book covers

to illustrate an article discussing the book in question
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Other use of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.

To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the work and copyright information. Please include in your fair use rationale details of the particular edition (publisher, market & year of publication) of the edition you have used, and also acknowledge any cover artist if such artist is acknowledged in that edition's frontmatter. If the book cover is in the public domain (see Wikipedia:Public domain), then use the appropriate public domain tag rather than this one.
