Debates over the legacy of Pope Pius XII and his canonization are so heated they are known as the "Pius wars." Soldier of Christ moves beyond competing caricatures and considers Pius XII as Eugenio Pacelli, a flawed and gifted man. While offering insight into the Pope's response to Nazism, Robert A. Ventresca argues that it was the Cold War and Pius XII's manner of engaging with the modern world that defined his pontificate. Laying the groundwork for the Pope's controversial, contradictory actions from 1939 to 1958, Ventresca begins with the story of Pacelli's Roman upbringing, his intellectual formation in Rome's seminaries, and his interwar experience as papal diplomat and Vatican Secretary of State. Accused of moral equivocation during the Holocaust, Pius XII later fought the spread of Communism in Western Europe, spoke against the persecution of Catholics in Eastern Europe and Asia, and tackled a range of social and political issues. By appointing the first indigenous cardinals from China and India and expanding missions in Africa while expressing solidarity with independence movements, he internationalized the Church's membership and moved Catholicism beyond the colonial mentality of previous eras. Drawing from a diversity of international sources, including unexplored documentation from the Vatican, Ventresca reveals a paradoxical figure: a prophetic reformer of limited vision whose leadership both stimulated the emergence of a global Catholicism and sowed doubt and dissension among some of the Church's most faithful servants.

Aujourd'hui, le simple fait d?e?voquer la figure de Pie XII conduit souvent a? de?clencher des re?actions e?pidermiques. Ne serait-il pas l?exemple me?me du conservatisme the?ologique ? L?ennemi de la recherche et de l?e?volution ? N?est-il pas ce pape dont les silences durant la seconde Guerre suffisent a? le discre?diter aux yeux de bon nombre de nos contemporains ? Se de?fiant des opinions et des images toutes faites, il convient d?affronter ces questions en leur donnant une re?ponse fonde?e sur des bases historiques rigoureuses.00Cet ouvrage collectif, fruit d?une rencontre tenue a? l?Universite? de Namur entre trois historiens, un the?ologien et deux philosophes, entend revisiter, loin de tout esprit pole?mique, certains aspects fortement discute?s du pontificat de Pie XII et de?crypter l?e?volution des images qu?on a pu, au cours du temps, se faire d?Eugenio Pacelli. Avec un regard critique qui n?esquive en rien les ambigui?te?s d?une e?poque bouleverse?e, les auteurs mettent en e?vidence la complexite?, mais aussi les richesses de la vie et de la pense?e d?un pape qui ne cadre pas exactement avec les images nai?ves que certains s?e?vertuent a? donner de lui.

In The Lonely Cold War of Pope Pius XII Peter Kent shows how the Catholic Church was able to continue to exist on both sides of the Iron Curtain in spite of the division of Europe after the Second World War. Although Christian democracy became increasingly influential in western Europe, the struggle to preserve the position and rights of the Church in the east was much more difficult. When east European governments, under Moscow's direction, began their offensive against the independence of the Church in 1948, the papacy found that it stood alone, with little assistance from the U.S. Kent offers a new assessment of Pius XII, extending the study of his career and papacy beyond the Second World War. He also examines the origins of the Cold War, the European perspective on American and Soviet policies, and the diplomatic role and influence of the Roman Catholic Church.
