Letters of an antifascist: 1940
The text records the thoughts and experiences of Charlotte Angermann in Dresden in the first year of the Second World War. As there was no postal communication with Great Britain, Charlotte began to address Marianne and Franz Bielschowsky, her daughter and son-in-law, in the form of diary entries as a substitute for letter writing. Charlotte’s journal summarises the main events of 1940 from the point of view of a politically uncommitted woman on the Home Front. She writes of increased rationing, the first bombing raids and of the military deaths of acquaintances and family members

Editors\u27 note
The editors set out the provenance of the archival material which is the basis for the publication: the letters of Dr Marianne Bielschowsky née Angermann contained in the Hocken Collections, University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand. Bielschowsky was a German biochemist who arrived in New Zealand in 1948 with her husband, Dr Franz Bielschowsky, when he took up a post as local head of the British Empire Cancer Research Fund. Previously they had worked together in Germany (Düsseldorf, Freiburg), Madrid (Instituto de investigaciones médicas) and Great Britain (Sheffield). These letters are copies of the originals and were written in German using the old deutsche Schrift (Kurrentschrift). They have been transcribed into standard script, and translated into English with extensive annotations.Keywords: Angermann, Bielschowsky, Dunedin, New Zealand, cancer research, Germany, Spain, Madrid, deutsche Schrift, Kurrentschrift, biochemis
