The Papacy, the Jews, and the Holocaust

Více o knize

The book provides a comprehensive historical account of the complex relationship between the papacy and the Jewish community, particularly in the modern age. It addresses the contentious debates surrounding Pope Pius XII's actions during the Holocaust and the broader implications of clerical anti-Judaism versus secular anti-Semitism. Author Frank J. Coppa navigates the intricate dynamics of these issues, emphasizing that historical developments are influenced by multiple factors rather than a singular cause, thereby offering a nuanced perspective on the Vatican's response to anti-Semitism.
