In this meticulously researched, unflinching, and reasoned study, National Book Award finalist David I. Kertzer presents shocking revelations about the role played by the Vatican in the development of modern anti-Semitism. Working in long-sealed Vatican archives, Kertzer unearths startling evidence to undermine the Church’s argument that it played no direct role in the spread of modern anti-Semitism. In doing so, he challenges the Vatican’s recent official statement on the subject, We Remember. Kertzer tells an unsettling story that has stirred up controversy around the world and sheds a much-needed light on the past.

The Popes Against the Jews The Vatican Role in the Rise of Modern AntiSemitism David I Kertzer 9780375706059 Books Reviews

• This book tells of events that are horrendous and abominable. That is all I can say.
• great
• A very good book - it explains a lot.
• This is a superb work that details, in a scholarly fashion, the history of Papal anti-Semitism. To say that the Vatican did not cause the Holocaust is certainly true, but almost two millenia of disparagement and open hatred did a great deal to prepare the ground. I myself wrote to a Cardinal of the Church here in California to ask for the current Church position on ritual murder. The reply was, "We have nothing further to say." So times change but opinions continue. The work is both a careful history and a warning that seemingly "harmless" prejudice and religious bigotry can lead to unwanted and horrendous circumstances.
• Understanding of catholics involvement with Nazi Germany.
• very well researched and well written. it helps to explain why the church did so little to stop the racism and murder by the Nazis.
• Detailed and important documentary history while simultaneously sad and disappointing to say the least. Many important sources review it better than I ever could, accessibly on the back cover.
• disturbing info
