Abstract
The name of Dr. Manfred Zapp became internationally known for having been accused of espionage and expelled from the United States in 1941, when he was director of the Nazi news agency Transocean News Service in New York. Before 1941 Zapp had been in Portugal, where he held positions at German institutions closely related to the German legation in Lisbon; after 1945 there is evidence that he was still connected to the Portuguese authorities providing information services and public relations to the Salazar regime. Drawing on the life and writings of this cosmopolitan and well-travelled character the essay seeks to reflect on the centrality of politics to the twentieth century world and on the continuities that the labyrin thine bio- bibliographical path of Zapp unveils.
