Book excerpt: Gives an account of the rise of Nazism and of the persecution and extermination of the Jews in Europe. Stresses the importance of factors others than the Nazis in provoking and carrying out the Holocaust, such as the attitudes of the civil populations in Germany and in occupied countries, and the stance of the Allies and of the Protestant and Catholic Churches. Asserts that, after the war, world opinion tended to trivialize the evil done, and that in the best case the memory of the Holocaust has been "static", solely commemorative. Advocates a "dynamic memory of the Holocaust", which would keep alive the awareness of evil through education.

Book Synopsis The Life & Pontificate of Pope Pius XII by : Frank J. Coppa
Download or read book The Life & Pontificate of Pope Pius XII written by Frank J. Coppa and published by Catholic University of America Press + ORM . This book was released on 2013-02-02 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Focuses not just on . . . the pope’s response to the Holocaust, but on [his] life and papacy . . . as a whole . . . A refreshingly balanced approach” (Catholic Courier). Written by one of the foremost historians of Pius XII, this present biographical study—unlike the greater part of the vast and growing historiography of Pope Pius XII—is a balanced and nonreactive account of his life and times. Its focus is not on the pope’s silence during the Holocaust, though it does address the issue in a historical and objective framework. This is a biography of the man before and during his papacy. It probes the roots of his traditionalism and legalism, his approach to modernity and reformism in Church and society, and the influences behind his policies and actions. “This book adds a great deal to what we currently know about this most written about pope. The author introduces a number of principles which need to be discussed by experts and also by biographers of this pope, most importantly the concepts of papal impartiality and anti-Judaism as related to Pope Pius XII.” —Charles R. Gallagher, S.J., assistant professor of history, Boston College “It sets up a closer examination and better understanding of Pius XII’s decisions and behaviors dealing with three distinct historically important topics: the Holocaust, the question of Palestine and Israel after World War II, and the Cold War.” —Catholic Books Review “Tries to move away from the controversy and toward a greater and broader focus on the entire life of Pacelli—his formative influences, personal interests, and papacy after the war.” —New Oxford Review
Book Synopsis Patriotic History and the (Re)Nationalization of Memory by : Kornelia Kończal
Download or read book Patriotic History and the (Re)Nationalization of Memory written by Kornelia Kończal and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-06-27 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book charts and traces state-mandated or state-encouraged “patriotic” histories that have recently emerged in many places around the globe. Such “patriotic” histories can revolve around both affirmative interpretations of the past and celebration of national achievements. They can also entail explicitly denialist stances against acknowledging responsibility for past atrocities, even to the extent of celebrating perpetrators. Whereas in some cases “patriotic” history takes the shape of a coherent doctrine, in others they remain limited to loosely connected narratives. By combining nationalist and narcissist narratives, and by disregarding or distorting historical evidence, “patriotic” history promotes mythified, monumental, and moralistic interpretations of the past that posit partisan and authoritarian essentialisms and exceptionalisms. Whereas the global debates in interdisciplinary memory studies revolve around concepts like cosmopolitan, global, multidirectional, relational, transcultural, and transnational memory, to mention but a few, the actual socio-political uses of history remain strikingly nation-centred and one-dimensional. This volume collects fifteen caste studies of such “nationalizations of history” ranging from China to the Baltic states. They highlight three features of this phenomenon: the ruthlessness of methods applied by many state authorities to impose certain interpretations of the past, the increasing discrepancy between professional and political approaches to collective memory, and the new “post-truth” context. This book will be of interest to students and researchers of international politics, the radical right and global history. It was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Genocide Research.

Book Synopsis Mussolini's Camps by : Carlo Spartaco Capogreco
Download or read book Mussolini's Camps written by Carlo Spartaco Capogreco and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-11-11 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book—which is based on vast archival research and on a variety of primary sources—has filled a gap in Italy’s historiography on Fascism, and in European and world history about concentration camps in our contemporary world. It provides, for the first time, a survey of the different types of internment practiced by Fascist Italy during the war and a historical map of its concentration camps. Published in Italian (I campi del duce, Turin: Einaudi, 2004), in Croatian (Mussolinijevi Logori, Zagreb: Golden Marketing – Tehnička knjiga, 2007), in Slovenian (Fašistična taborišča, Ljublana: Publicistično društvo ZAK, 2011), and now in English, Mussolini’s Camps is both an excellent product of academic research and a narrative easily accessible to readers who are not professional historians. It undermines the myth that concentration camps were established in Italy only after the creation of the Republic of Salò and the Nazi occupation of Italy’s northern regions in 1943, and questions the persistent and traditional image of Italians as brava gente (good people), showing how Fascism made extensive use of the camps (even in the occupied territories) as an instrument of coercion and political control.

Book Synopsis Ethische Fragen der "Behinderung". Ethical Challenges of Disability by : Marie-Jo Thiel
Download or read book Ethische Fragen der "Behinderung". Ethical Challenges of Disability written by Marie-Jo Thiel and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2014 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People with disabilities still face many challenges, barriers, discrimination and exclusion. Considerable progress has transformed their lives in recent decades, but many challenges remain, in part because the policy cannot do everything and that is to change mentalities. This book discusses ethical issues about inclusion, recognition, solidarity, governance, civic engagement, the ability to lead a 'normal life', to work, to raise a family. It delves into the 'world of disability' and invites all to construct a society which accommodates differences and weaknesses.

Book Synopsis Italian Fascism and Spanish Falangism in Comparison by : Giorgia Priorelli
Download or read book Italian Fascism and Spanish Falangism in Comparison written by Giorgia Priorelli and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-01 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book compares the Italian Fascist and the Spanish Falangist political cultures from the early 1930s to the early 1940s, using the idea of the nation as the focus of the comparison. It argues that the discourse on the nation represented a common denominator between these two manifestations of the fascist phenomenon in Mussolini’s Italy and Franco’s Spain. Exploring the similarities and differences between these two political cultures, this study investigates how Fascist and Falangist ideologues defined and developed their own idea of the nation over time to legitimise their power within their respective countries. It examines to what extent their concept of the nation influenced Italian and Spanish domestic and foreign policies. The book offers a four-level framework for understanding the evolution of the fascist idea of the nation: the ideology of the nation, the imperial projects of Fascism and Falangism, race and the nation, and the place of these cultures in the new Nazi continental order. In doing so, it shows how these ideas of the nation had significant repercussions on fascist political practice.
Book Synopsis Jewish Women in the Early Italian Women’s Movement, 1861–1945 by : Ruth Nattermann
Download or read book Jewish Women in the Early Italian Women’s Movement, 1861–1945 written by Ruth Nattermann and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-06-30 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first epoch-spanning study on Jewish participation in the Italian women’s movement, focussing in a transnational perspective on the experience of Italian-Jewish protagonists in Liberal Italy, during the First World War and the Fascist dictatorship until 1945. Drawing on ego-documents, contemporary journals and Jewish community archives, as well as records by the police and public authorities, it examines the tensions within the emancipation process between participation and exclusion. The book argues that the racial laws from 1938 did not represent the sudden end of an idyllic integration, but rather the climax of a long-term development. Social marginalization, the persecution of Jewish rights, and the assault on Jewish lives during fascism are analysed distinctly from the perspective of Jewish women. In spite of their significant influence on the transnational orientation of the Italian women’s movement, their emancipation as women and Jews remained incomplete.

Book Synopsis Accounting for the Holocaust by : Warwick Funnell
Download or read book Accounting for the Holocaust written by Warwick Funnell and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-06-28 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accounting for the Holocaust: Enabling the Final Solution reveals how accounting practices allowed the attempted annihilation of Jews by the German Nazis and the Italian Fascists to be carried out with machine-like efficiency and devoid of any moral considerations. This largely hidden aspect of the Holocaust will allow a wide range of readers, both academic and across many sectors of the general population, to understand how the systematic murder of more than six million Jews was expedited by accounting practices and the information that these produced by allowing the humanity of those killed to be denied when they became mere numbers in a process. Readers will gain a new understanding of how the enactment of the scale of the Holocaust was made possible by the way in which accounting practices as “technologies of death” were used to reduce Jews to a life without value. The numerical calculations, techniques, and reports that constitute accounting practices allowed the systematic murder of Jews to be drained of any considerations that would imply that the numbers and costings were related to prescient human beings. These technologies of death also allowed those who managed and organised the murder of Jews to absolve themselves of the actual killings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il Rifugio dell'arte è come una tavola imbandita dove ogni cosa ha il suo gusto e la sua bellezza. E' un fondersi di arti diverse ma tutte figlie della stessa madre: "l'anima!" Sì, perché il Rifugio dell'arte è un incontro di tante anime che portano in dono l'arte, con quella delicatezza che si ha per le cose eteree, belle, speciali. E' uno scontro di suoni, colori, parole e vite che raccontano di sé con timidezza, con la voglia e il piacere di dire che nel mondo ci sono mille facce che possono essere buone o non buone ma c'è una cosa, una cosa che è viva e pulsa da sempre nella storia dell'uomo. Una cosa che può aprire i confini, che può sciogliere anche i cuori più duri: la poesia!

Book Synopsis The Memory Monster by : Yishai Sarid
Download or read book The Memory Monster written by Yishai Sarid and published by Restless Books. This book was released on 2020-09-08 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The controversial English-language debut of celebrated Israeli novelist Yishai Sarid is a harrowing, ironic parable of how we reckon with human horror, in which a young, present-day historian becomes consumed by the memory of the Holocaust. Written as a report to the chairman of Yad Vashem, Israel’s memorial to the victims of the Holocaust, our unnamed narrator recounts his own undoing. Hired as a promising young historian, he soon becomes a leading expert on Nazi methods of extermination at concentration camps in Poland during World War II and guides tours through the sites for students and visiting dignitaries. He hungrily devours every detail of life and death in the camps and takes pride in being able to recreate for his audience the excruciating last moments of the victims’ lives. The job becomes a mission, and then an obsession. Spending so much time immersed in death, his connections with the living begin to deteriorate. He resents the students lost in their iPhones, singing sentimental songs, not expressing sufficient outrage at the genocide committed by the Nazis. In fact, he even begins to detect, in the students as well as himself, a hint of admiration for the murderers—their efficiency, audacity, and determination. Force is the only way to resist force, he comes to think, and one must be prepared to kill. With the perspicuity of Kafka’s The Trial and the obsessions of Delillo’s White Noise, The Memory Monster confronts difficult questions that are all too relevant to Israel and the world today: How do we process human brutality? What makes us choose sides in conflict? And how do we honor the memory of horror without becoming consumed by it? Praise for The Memory Monster: “Award-winning Israeli novelist Sarid’s latest work is a slim but powerful novel, rendered beautifully in English by translator Greenspan…. Propelled by the narrator’s distinctive voice, the novel is an original variation on one of the most essential themes of post-Holocaust literature: While countless writers have asked the question of where, or if, humanity can be found within the profoundly inhumane, Sarid incisively shows how preoccupation and obsession with the inhumane can take a toll on one’s own humanity…. it is, if not an indictment of Holocaust memorialization, a nuanced and trenchant consideration of its layered politics. Ultimately, Sarid both refuses to apologize for Jewish rage and condemns the nefarious forms it sometimes takes. A bold, masterful exploration of the banality of evil and the nature of revenge, controversial no matter how it is read.” —Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review “[A] record of a breakdown, an impassioned consideration of memory and its risks, and a critique of Israel’s use of the Holocaust to shape national identity…. Sarid’s unrelenting examination of how narratives of the Holocaust are shaped makes for much more than the average confessional tale.” —Publishers Weekly “Reading The Memory Monster, which is written as a report to the director of Yad Vashem, felt like both an extremely intimate experience and an eerily clinical Holocaust history lesson. Perfectly treading the fine line between these two approaches, Sarid creates a haunting exploration of collective memory and an important commentary on humanity. How do we remember the Holocaust? What tolls do we pay to carry on memory? This book hit me viscerally, emotionally, and personally. The Memory Monster is brief, but in its short account Sarid manages to lay bare the tensions between memory and morals, history and nationalism, humanity and victimhood. An absolute must-read.” —Julia DeVarti, Literati Bookstore (Ann Arbor, MI) “In Yishai Sarid’s dark, thoughtful novel The Memory Monster, a Holocaust historian struggles with the weight of his profession…. The Memory Monster is a novel that pulls no punches in its exploration of the responsibility—and the cost—of holding vigil over the past.” —Eileen Gonzalez, Foreword Reviews
