Download or read book The Lausanne Treaty Turkey and Armenia written by American Committee Opposed to the Lausanne Treaty and published by . This book was released on 1926 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a collection of essays, as well as the text of the treaty and letters to and from members of the government. The basis for the Committee's opposition to the treaty is that it does not punish the perpetrators of the Armenian genocide. Moreover the Committee asserts the right of Armenians to an independent state supported by the United States. The essays attack the issue from a variety of standpoints, including humanitarian, on the basis of honor, and as a matter of economic/political weakness--specifically, in that the treaty ended foreign "rights" to extraterritorial privileges within Turkey. A common thread is that most of the essays are from a Christian standpoint: the writers assert that the killing of Armenians is especially terrible because they are Christians being killed by Muslims, or that the treaty itself is anti-Christian.

Download or read book The Pope and the Holocaust written by Michael Hesemann and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2022-07-01 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over two decades, Eugenio Pacelli, Pope Pius XII, has been blasted in the public square as "Hitler's Pope", accused by bestselling authors of cowardice in the face of the Nazi regime. Some have even said that the pope was complicit in Hitler's grab for power, privately fueled by a hatred for the Jewish people. And if they are right, who would not join in condemning a leader like this, especially one who claims to represent all Christians? But what if this image of Pius XII is completely backward? Archival and archaeological researcher Michael Hesemann has unearthed thousands of documents—including from the Vatican Secret Archives (or the Vatican Apostolic Archive), only recently opened to scholars—to give a startling picture of Eugenio Pacelli as a shrewd diplomat and a champion of the Jewish people during World War II. Saving thousands upon thousands of lives, Pius demonstrated such courage and compassion in these times that Jewish leaders across the globe praised him, and the ecumenical Pave the Way Foundation has since nominated him for the Yad Vashem Holocaust Museum's Righteous among the Nations award. The Pope and the Holocaust traces Pacelli's fight for peace in the 1930s and 1940s, including his years as apostolic nuncio in Germany, where he resisted Nazism. Even some of his most controversial moves, such as the 1933 Vatican concordat, were made to protect Jewish and Christian lives. What emerges clearly from Hesemann's evidence is a portrait of a man radically committed to the Jews and the revelation God gave to them. As Pope Pius himself remarked in 1938, "It is not legitimate for Christians to take part in anti-Semitism. Spiritually, we are all Semites."

Download or read book Benedict XV written by Giovanni Cavagnini and published by . This book was released on 2020-10-23 with total page 1675 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On August 1, 1917 - three years after the outbreak of WW1 - pope Benedict XV signed his famous peace note, urging the governments of the belligerent Powers to seek a diplomatic solution to their disputes and stop the "useless massacre". In order to commemorate the event and to define the place of this "forgotten pope" in twentieth-century history, on November 3-5, 2016, the Fondazione per le Scienze Religiose Giovanni XXIII (Fscire) hosted an international conference, entitled "Benedict XV in the world of the useless massacre", in which more than a hundred historians from all over the world participated. The aim of the initiative, supported by the Historical and Scientific Committee for Italy's National Anniversaries, is to shed light on the key issues of this pontificate, from Giacomo Della Chiesa's education in the theological seminary in Genua to his heritage and memory all along the twentieth century. The volume resulting from this conference provides a comprehensive and systematic reference work about a key figure in Church history that has all too often been neglected.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Armenian Genocide is the only one of the genocides of the 20th century in which the nation that was decimated by genocide has been subjected to the ongoing outrage of a massive campaign of genocide denial, openly sustained by state authority. This campaign of genocide denial is a slap in the face to the Armenian people,preventing reconciliation and healing. As Pope Francis said so eloquently at his Mass marking the 100th time period of the genocide, quote, "Concealing or denying evil is like allowing a wound to keep bleeding without bandaging it."

Download or read book From Empire to Republic written by Taner Akçam and published by Zed Books Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-07-18 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taner Akçam is one of the first Turkish academics to acknowledge and discuss openly the Armenian Genocide perpetrated by the Ottoman-Turkish government in 1915. This book discusses western political policies towards the region generally, and represents the first serious scholarly attempt to understand the Genocide from a perpetrator rather than victim perspective, and to contextualize those events within Turkey's political history. By refusing to acknowledge the fact of genocide, successive Turkish governments not only perpetuate massive historical injustice, but also pose a fundamental obstacle to Turkey's democratization today.
