abstract
These letters, written in 1998-2000, contain various basic results about Courant algebroids (CAs), such as classification of exact and transitive CAs, reduction of CAs, description in terms of symplectic dg manifolds, a canonical generating Dirac operator, and a relation with Poisson-Lie T-duality.

Courant algebroid relations define spinor and Dirac structure relations, with T-duality inducing spinor relations that generalize twisted cohomology isomorphisms and are compatible with Type II supergravity equations.
An explicit holomorphic theory is constructed for flux backgrounds in 10D N=1 supergravity, conjecturally realizing the supergravity twist and generalizing minimal type I BCOV theory via Courant algebroids.
The generalised Lie derivative of (s)pinor fields on Courant algebroids is constructed via a natural connection on the space of generalised metrics, yielding the formula L_u ψ = D_u ψ + (1/2)(D_u a^b)γ_{ab}ψ.
Establishes a correspondence between 2-shifted Lagrangian morphisms and Dirac structures, identifying multiplicative D-valued moment maps for integrating quasi-Poisson manifolds and constructing quasi-symplectic groupoids via fibred products.
