"A work of both childhood memory and adult reflection undergirded with scholarly research, A Final Reckoning resonates with emotional intensity and insight. Ruth Gutmann's memoir, first published in Germany in 2002, recounts her life not only as a concentration camp inmate and survivor, but also as a sister and daughter. Ruth; her twin sister, Eva; stepmother, Mania; and father, Samuel Herskovits, were interned in both Thereisenstadt and Auschwitz-Birkenau between June 1943 and March 1944, where all but Gutmann and her sister perished. Ruth and Eva spent the remainder of the war in numerous other camps. Gutmann's memoir is compelling in several respects. It spans her birth and early life in Hannover, Germany; her escape to Holland on a kindertransport; her forced return to Hannover; her deportation to the concentration camps (where Ruth and Eva attracted the attention of Josef Mengele, though they were ultimately spared from his murderous studies of twin siblings); and her life postliberation. Particularly striking is Gutmann's portrait of her father, Samuel, a leader in the Jewish community of Hannover who was forced under extreme pressure to communicate and, in some cases, cooperate with Nazi officials. Gutmann uses her own memories as well as years of reflection and academic study to reevaluate his role in their community. A Final Reckoning provides not only insights into Gutmann's own experience as a child in the midst of the atrocities of the Holocaust, but also a window into the lives of those, like her father, who were forced to carry on and comply with the regime that would ultimately bring about their demise"--

Après la Libération, la discussion fait rage, en France, sur la validité des baptêmes administrés pendant la guerre par l’Église catholique pour sauver les enfants juifs. Catherine Poujol a découvert une note de la nonciature à Paris, datée du 23 octobre 1946, demandant de ne pas rendre ces enfants désormais baptisés, même à leurs parents. C’est à démonter la fabrication de cette archive qu’elle s’est attachée. L’élaboration de cette directive sert de colonne vertébrale à l’ouvrage : comment en est-on venu à décider cela ? Quelles pressions furent exercées sur Pie XII pour obtenir un memorandum ordonnant de rendre tous les enfants juifs cachés après-guerre et pourquoi ce ne fut pas le cas ? Pour y répondre, l’auteur a étudié les positions des évêques français concernés qui ont accueilli ces enfants dans leurs diocèses-refuges. Elle s’est aussi attachée à décrypter l’attitude des « hommes de terrains » (les pères Braun, Chaillet, Devaux), ces ecclésiastiques qui détiennent les enfants cachés après les avoir sauvés, nourris et protégés. Les ont-ils baptisés ? Les ont-ils rendus facilement ? Leurs positions sont très différentes.
