Rich with the insights of prominent Catholic and Jewish
commentators and religious leaders, Catholics and Jews in
Twentieth-Century America recounts the amazing transformation of a
relationship of irreconcilable enmity to one of respectful
coexistence and constructive dialogue. Focusing primarily on the
Catholic doctrinal view of the Jews and its ramifications, Egal
Feldman traces the historicalroots of anti-Semitism, examining
tenacious Catholic beliefsincluding the idea that the Jews lost
their place as the chosen people with the coming of Christianity,
deicide, and the conviction that their purported responsibility for
the Crucifixion justified subsequent Jewish misery. A new era of
Catholic-Jewish relations opened in 1962 with Vatican II's
Declaration on the Jews, reversing the theology of contempt.
Feldman explores the strides made in improving relations, such as
the Vatican's diplomatic recognition of the Jewish state, as well
as a number of recent issues.
