Crux Ansata - An Indictment of the Roman Catholic Church
Author: H. G. Wells
Publisher: Read Books Ltd
ISBN: 1473345006
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 114
Book Description
"Crux Ansata" is a fervent attack on the Roman Catholic Church and Pope Pius XII written by H. G. Wells at the height of the Second World War. Within it, Wells uses his position and popularity to bolster British morale, praising the English spirit whilst simultaneously condemning the "spreading octopus" of the Church and its "Shinto alliance." Contents include: "Why Do We Not Bomb Rome?", "The Development Of The Idea Of Christendom", "The Essential Weakness Of Christendom", "Heresies Are Experiments In Man's Unsatisfied Search For Truth", "The City of God", "The Church Salvages Learning", "Charlemagne", "Black Interlude", "The Launching Of The Crusades By The Church", et cetera. Herbert George Wells (1866 - 1946) was a prolific English writer who wrote in a variety of genres, including the novel, politics, history, and social commentary. Today, he is perhaps best remembered for his contributions to the science fiction genre thanks to such novels as "The Time Machine" (1895), "The Invisible Man" (1897), and "The War of the Worlds" (1898). Although never a winner, Wells was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature a total of four times. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.

A Moral Reckoning
Author: Daniel Jonah Goldhagen
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0307424448
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 418
Book Description
With his first book, Hitler’s Willing Executioners, Daniel Jonah Goldhagen dramatically revised our understanding of the role ordinary Germans played in the Holocaust. Now he brings his formidable powers of research and argument to bear on the Catholic Church and its complicity in the destruction of European Jewry. What emerges is a work that goes far beyond the familiar inquiries—most of which focus solely on Pope Pius XII—to address an entire history of hatred and persecution that culminated, in some cases, in an active participation in mass-murder. More than a chronicle, A Moral Reckoning is also an assessment of culpability and a bold attempt at defining what actions the Church must take to repair the harm it did to Jews—and to repair itself. Impressive in its scholarship, rigorous in its ethical focus, the result is a book of lasting importance.
