Reviews
This book is a uniquely forceful attempt by a scholar belonging to the Jesuit order to reflect upon the anti-Jewish past of his own institution. It is a must-read for everyone interested in the relations between the Roman Catholic Church and Judaism. -David Lebovitch Dahl, University of Copenhagen [This] is a powerful book that brings together a number of significant themes-some in novel ways-and reflects the state of the field as well as an enviable scholarly career that has deepened our understanding of Jesuit history, anti-Semitism, and Jewish-Christian relations in modern history. -Journal of Jesuit Studies Jesuit Kaddish is an incisive and lucid work of 'memory activism' examining the Holocaust and the Jesuits. . . . This is not simply a book about Jesuits and Jews. Rather, it is permeated with Jesuit sensibilities and spirituality-and a summons to the Society of Jesus to formulate a statement of repentance. -Theological Studies A thorough, honest, and thought-provoking endeavor to come to terms with the Jesuit Order's centuries-long hostility toward Jews. This is an important addition to the fields of Catholic-Jewish history, Catholicism and Nazism, and anti-Semitism in Europe. -Lauren Faulkner Rossi, author of Wehrmacht Priests
