BackgroundVon Zedlitz was born in 1871 at Herrmannswaldau, which at the time was located in Germany.[1] His mother was an Englishwoman and he was raised principally in England. His father was Sigismund Freiherr von Zedlitz and Neukirch (1838-1903). On 4 January 1905 [2] he married Alice Maud Fitzgerald the eldest daughter of Lower Hutt mayor William Alfred Fitzherbert, who built a house Norbury in Lower Hutt (now Minoh Friendship House) for them. Academic careerIn 1902, Von Zedlitz was appointed as a professor of modern languages at Victoria University College, and was the fifth professor to join the college. He also served as an official government translator. Following the outbreak of the First World War the New Zealand Government requested to have him dismissed from his post, a request that was rebuffed by the university. The subsequent passing of the Alien Enemy Teachers Act 1915 [3] enabled the Government to overrule the university. In 1936 he was made professor emeritus, and elected to the Senate of the University of New Zealand.[4] Death and legacyHe died in Wellington on 24 May 1949.[5] In May 1979, Victoria University of Wellington officially opened the Von Zedlitz building on their Kelburn campus.[6][7] Named in his honour, the building houses the School of Languages and Cultures.[8] References1. ^{{cite web|last=McLintock|first=A.
