Hitler's Pope : The Secret History of Pius XII
by John Cornwell
<exerpt>
This devastating account of the ecclesiastical career of Eugenio Pacelli
(1876-1958), who became Pope Pius XII in 1939, is all the more powerful
because British historian John Cornwell maintains throughout a measured
though strongly critical tone. After World War II, murmurs of Pacelli's
callous indifference to the plight of Europe's Jews began to be heard. A
noted commentator on Catholic issues, Cornwell began research for this book
believing that "if his full story were told, Pius XII's pontificate would be
exonerated." Instead, he emerged from the Vatican archives in a state of
"moral shock," concluding that Pacelli displayed anti-Semitic tendencies
early on and that his drive to promote papal absolutism inexorably led him to
collaboration with fascist leaders.
