| Synopsis: |
"The Policies and Politics of Pope Pius XII" delves into the diplomacy of the most controversial pope of the twentieth century: Pius XII (pontificate, 1939-1958), Advocate of Appeasement to some and Apostle of Peace to others. Disagreement prevails on his quest for peace, recourse to impartiality during the Second World War, and relative public silence during the Holocaust. His abandonment of impartiality to play a prominent role in the Cold War has contributed to the charges and counter-charges leading to what has been deemed the Pius War. Unfortunately, a good deal of the literature published by the defenders and denigrators of this papal diplomacy has shed more heat than light. In this book, Frank J. Coppa, who has written on numerous controversial figures including Pius IX (pontificate,1846-1878), seeks to objectively explore the origins and rationale of Pius XII's diplomacy during the war, the Nazi genocide, and its aftermath. |
