Conformal field theories corresponding to two-dimensional electrically charged black holes and to two-dimensional anti-de Sitter space with a covariantly constant electric field are simply constructed as SL(2,[ital openR])/[ital openZ] Wess-Zumino-Witten coset models. Four-dimensional spacetime solutions are obtained by tensoring these two-dimensional theories with SU(2)/[ital Z]([ital m]) coset models. These describe a family of dyonic black holes and the Bertotti-Robinson universe.
