Non-free / fair use media rationale for Ariosophy
Description	'World-rune-clock', 2D design by Werner von Bülow (1870-1947).
Source	Reproduced in the book The Occult Roots of Nazism by Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke (1985, ISBN 0-85030-402-4) where it is sourced (pp 159, 254) to the book Hoch-Zeit der Menschheit (The Zenith of Humanity) by Rudolf John Gorsleben (Leipzig, 1930), p.328f. Gorsleben's book featured "illustrations drawn from numerous scholarly studies in prehistory, archaeology, ethnology, and art history" and "reproduced over a hundred plates from such works, including photographs, line drawings, diagrams, and maps" (Goodrick-Clarke, op. cit., 158-159) so it is unclear when and where the clock design was first published. Goodrick-Clarke's book has no information on copyright/permission for the image.
Article	Ariosophy
Portion used	The whole of the design.
Low resolution?	Yes, fuzzy by comparison with Goodrick-Clarke's reproduction.
Purpose of use	To illustrate an educational article about Germanic mysticism, including the ideas of Bülow and the Society in which he was Grand Master.
Replaceable?	Unable to find any other source for this image. Goodrick-Clarke is the main authority on nowadays obscure works of early 20th century Germanic mysticism.
Other information	The 'clock' is actually a diagram of correspondences and would have been widely disseminated and used in German mystical circles.
