Abstract:
Divided into several chapters, this article discusses the Vatican document "We Remember" in relation to the historical background of the Holocaust. Deals with the distinction between anti-Judaism and antisemitism; Nazi antisemitism and the mass murder of the Jews; the position of the Allied countries vis-a-vis the Jewish question; the Catholic Church in Germany and the encyclical of Pope Pius XI; the question of the silence of Pope Pius XII, and his absolution in the Vatican document; and Jewish reactions to the Vatican document. Pp. 481-491 contain the Italian text of the document.
Note:
The appendix (pp. 481-491) contains the letter of Pope John Paul II and the text of Edward Idris Cassidy introducing the document "We Remember".
