Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: «Un libro splendido: offre numerose prove molto poco lusinghiere sul ruolo di Pio xii durante la Seconda guerra mondiale e sul suo silenzio davanti all'Olocausto. Mette la parola fine al dibattito sul pontefice, ed esclude senza dubbio. ogni possibile apologia delle sue posizioni.» » Ian Kershaw, autore di "Hitler" «David Kertzer ha la competenza e il coraggio di interpretare nuovi documenti, e rivela in quale torbida palude il Vaticano si muovesse durante il papato di Pio xii. Tenetevi pronti a una storia piena di orrori.» Garry Wills, vincitore del Premio Pulitzer «Un libro straordinariamente documentato e ricco di rivelazioni esplosive. Un capolavoro. » Kevin Madigan, professore di Storia della Chiesa, Harvard University «Dal saggio di Kertzer si ricava una visione complessiva sul comportamento di papa Pio XII in quegli anni orribili.» la Repubblica Alla morte di Pio xii, nel 1958, tutti i documenti del pontificato furono rinchiusi negli archivi vaticani: impedendone la consultazione agli studiosi si sono così la - sciati a lungo senza risposta interrogativi che nel tempo non hanno potuto che infittirsi, facendo di Eugenio Pacelli uno dei papi più controversi della storia. Nel 2020, dopo decenni di pressioni, quegli archivi sono stati finalmente aperti e il vincitore del Premio Pulitzer David Kertzer è stato tra i primi storici a potervi accedere. Il risultato è sorprendente. Con il suppor - to di migliaia di documenti inediti, Un papa in guerra rivela l’esistenza di negoziati segreti tra Hitler e Pio xii già a poche settimane dalla fine del conclave; racconta in che modo Mussolini abbia fatto affidamento sul clero italiano e sulle istituzioni religiose per ottenere l’appoggio popolare all’entrata in guerra; dimostra come tanto il Duce quanto il Führer siano riusciti a manipolare a proprio vantaggio il pontefice; e spiega perché, pur avendo prove inconfutabili dello sterminio in corso degli ebrei, Pio xii non abbia mai denunciato le atrocità naziste. David Kertzer getta nuova luce sul periodo più cupo della nostra storia e disegna il drammatico ritratto di un papa pronto a dismettere i panni di guida morale pur di preservare il millenario potere della Chiesa.

Download or read book Revisiting the National Socialist Legacy written by Oliver Rathkolb and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the mid-1990s, political, legal, and historical debates about Nazi theft and confiscation of property, the use of slave labor during World War II, and restitution and compensation have reemerged. Revisiting the National Socialist Legacy presents completely new historical research on these issues conducted worldwide. This volume responds to concern about Holocaust era assets in Europe, the United States, and Latin America. It focuses on both reexamination of the history of National Socialist property theft and employment of forced labor in the wartime economy, and the compensation and restitution solutions advanced in various European and Latin American countries since 1945. While the question of Nazis in exile and the memories of survivors are explored, attention is focused on the role of numerous historical commissions and the tension between judicial processes, media coverage, historical scholarship, and politics. The book is divided into five parts: "At the Nexus of Justice, Media Coverage, Historical Scholarship and Politics"; "Commissioned History"; "Research on Slave and Forced Labor"; "National Socialist Theft: Banking, Industry, Insurance and Works of Art"; and "History as Catharsis." "[A]n excellent volume. It shows the wisdom of creating the national historical commission such as CEANA in Argentina, established in part as a national response to the two major bombings of Jewish institutions in the country. Clearly these commissions have led to the examination of archives that otherwise might have continued to lie dormant. This volume is not the end of the story[b]ut it has highlighted some promising new areas of research."--John T. Pawlikowski, professor of social ethics and director, Catholic-Jewish Studies Program, Catholic Theological Union "[C]ompletely new findings from research on Nazi looting of property and exploitation of slave and forced labor during World War 2..."--Austrian Information Oliver Rathkolb is co-director of the Ludwig Boltzmann Institut fr Geschichte und Gesellschaft, Vienna, research director of the Democracy Center, Vienna, research coordinator of the Bruno Kreisky Forum for International Dialogue, and assistant professor at the Institute for Contemporary History of the University of Vienna.
Download or read book Memories of the Second World War in Neutral Europe 1945 2023 written by Manuel Bragança and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-12-12 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume is a sequel to, and a development of, The Long Aftermath: Cultural Legacies of Europe at War, 1936-2016 (2016). It focuses on the six major European countries and states that remained officially neutral throughout the Second World War, namely Ireland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and the Vatican. Its transnational, comparative and interdisciplinary approach addresses complex questions pertaining to collective remembrance, national policies and politics, and intellectual as well as cultural responses to neutrality during and after the conflict. The contributions are from a broad range of scholars working across the disciplines of history, literature, film, media, and cultural studies. Their thought-provoking chapters challenge many assumptions about neutrality in the post-war European and global context, thereby filling a gap in the existing scholarship. Common themes that run through the volume include the intertwined and dynamic links between neutrality and moral responsibility during and after the Second World War, the importance of memory politics and popular culture in shaping collective memories, and the impact of the Holocaust in shifting traditional perspectives on neutrality since the 1990s. This volume will be of interest to undergraduates, postgraduates, scholars interested in the field of memory studies, as well as non-specialist readers.
Download or read book Lonely Cold War of Pope Pius XII written by Peter C. Kent and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2002-05-21 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Lonely Cold War of Pope Pius XII Peter Kent shows how the Catholic Church was able to continue to exist on both sides of the Iron Curtain in spite of the division of Europe after the Second World War. Although Christian democracy became increasingly influential in western Europe, the struggle to preserve the position and rights of the Church in the east was much more difficult. When east European governments, under Moscow's direction, began their offensive against the independence of the Church in 1948, the papacy found that it stood alone, with little assistance from the U.S. Kent offers a new assessment of Pius XII, extending the study of his career and papacy beyond the Second World War. He also examines the origins of the Cold War, the European perspective on American and Soviet policies, and the diplomatic role and influence of the Roman Catholic Church.
Download or read book Pio XII e gli ebrei written by Johan Ickx and published by Rizzoli. This book was released on 2021-01-12 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il 2 marzo 1939 il cardinale Eugenio Pacelli veniva eletto papa, e dieci giorni dopo saliva al soglio pontificio con il nome di Pio XII. Fu dunque suo il compito - tutt'altro che sempli- ce - di guidare la Chiesa negli anni terribili del- la Seconda guerra mondiale. A conflitto finito, Pacelli fu salutato come il salvatore di Roma dallo scempio dell'occupazione nazista: politici di primo rango e influenti personalità del mondo ebraico ne elogiarono il comportamento e l'operato. Di lì a poco, però, quella visione cambiò radicalmente. Prima la stampa sovietica poi la celebre pièce teatrale Il vicario lo descrissero all'opinione pubblica sotto tutt'altra luce. Cominciò a serpeggiare la cosiddetta «accusa del Silenzio», che voleva Pio XII omertoso rispetto all'orrore dei campi di concentramento e in buona sostanza complice dei nazisti. Dove stava la verità? Cosa sapeva davvero il papa delle atrocità commesse durante la guerra? Quanto erano fondate le ricostruzioni che parlavano di uno scambio epistolare tra lui e Roosevelt per prevenire l'escalation della guerra, di reti segrete per supportare la fuga dei perseguitati dal regime, di battesimi improvvisati volti a salvare migliaia di ebrei dalla deportazione? Da allora le valutazioni su Pio XII non si sono più ricomposte, e ciclicamente le discussioni sulla sua controversa figura tornano a infiammarsi. Così, deciso a spiegare le azioni del suo predecessore, papa Francesco ha da poco desecretato i documenti a riguardo. Johan Ickx lavora da più di due decenni negli archivi della Santa Sede, e oggi dirige l'Archivio Storico della Sezione per i rapporti con gli Stati della Segreteria di Stato: chi meglio di lui, dunque, può raccontarci cosa dicono quelle carte, e fare finalmente chiarezza? Affidandosi alle sole testimonianze documentali autentiche, l'autore di questo libro ricostruisce per noi le vicende che videro protagonisti Pacelli e i suoi più stretti collaboratori, il celebre Bureau, dipingendo una serie di ritratti tanto vividi quanto accurati. E provando a fare luce su uno dei grandi misteri irrisolti della Seconda guerra mondiale.
Download or read book Towards and Beyond the Italian Republic written by Davide Cadeddu and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-07-12 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the historical process that led to the foundation of the Italian Republic and its constitution, viewed through the personal experiences and political reflections of Adriano Olivetti (between 1919 and 1960), general manager and president of the well-known typewriter manufacturer “Ing. C. Olivetti & C.” An unbroken line of reasoning linked his maturing political reflections during the two post-war periods. The historical context of the 1950s did not prove to be very propitious, but the guidelines dispersed throughout the Italian cultural and political world from the movement that Olivetti founded were certainly seminal – generating a legacy of ideas that has only in part been recognized. What makes this study distinctive is the original approach to reading the history of Italy through Adriano Olivetti’s eyes and thoughts, far from the more common Christian Democratic or Communist perspective of those years. It is simply another view of what the Italian Republic could be and was not.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Un'originale ricostruzione dell'atteggiamento del Vaticano nei confronti del nazismo negli anni drammatici del secondo conflitto mondiale e una riflessione sul ruolo e sulle responsabilità di Pio XII. «Il problema dei 'silenzi' non è solo una questione del mondo ebraico, ma riguarda tutti, anche i cattolici».Pio XII è una figura controversa. Da un lato protagonista di azioni riconosciute a tutela delle vittime del nazifascismo, in particolare nei mesi drammatici dell'occupazione di Roma; dall'altro accusato per i troppi 'silenzi' a fronte delle notizie drammatiche che arrivavano in Vaticano, già dal 1939, dai territori occupati da Hitler, a partire dalla Polonia.Andrea Riccardi ricostruisce la storia e le ragioni di quei silenzi, avvalendosi di una ricca documentazione consultabile per la prima volta. Solo nel 2020 l'Archivio Apostolico Vaticano ha, infatti, reso accessibili agli studiosi i documenti del pontificato di Pio XII. Frutto di questa straordinaria opportunità di ricerca e a firma di uno degli storici più accreditati sulla materia, l'analisi e l'interpretazione di un nodo rilevantissimo della storia del Novecento.
