Silence and Suppression
Letter from Arnold Eucken to Erich Regener, Göttingen, 11 February 1949, reproduction

Regener is a physicist and vice president of the Max Planck Society. Eucken is a professor for physical chemistry and editor of the journal Die Naturwissenschaften.

The letter is a document of suppression. It shows the resentment toward persecuted and expelled scientists in Germany after 1945.

The reasons for Einstein’s position are passed over in silence. The readership is denied information about Einstein.
