I’m exploring this quite a bit now as I prepare to write my
final Schellberg Cycle novel.
There is a sort of hierarchy in the resistance:
Grumbling behind closed doors
Giving lip service only to the “rules” – Hans Edler’s ‘Heil
Edler’ is an example of this.
Turning a blind eye to others not obeying the rules
Dragging feet on new initiatives – as
Hans Edler did with the fabrication
of the V2.
Some Christian resistance – we have examples of this in the
Cycle.
Overtly disobeying
Protest marches
Taking huge risks secretly: e.g. hiding Jews
Satire – this will figure hugely in my final book.
Some left-wing organisation existed – The Social Democratic Party
and the Communist Party
Some youth organisations – such as the White Rose.
Resistance even within the armed forces.
Resistance outside of Germany
Attempts on his life
