In the fall of 1940, the British radio station BBC asked the German Nobel Prize winner Thomas Mann to write short radio lectures in his Californian exile that were broadcast to Nazi Germany. Mann wrote 55 speeches by the end of the war. The sponsoring association of the Thomas Mann House meeting place in Los Angeles has taken up the idea of radio speeches again and is organizing the “55 Voices” series with speeches for the democracywhich the SZ prints and Deutschlandfunk broadcasts.
