{"product_id":"9781472504791","title":"Churches and Religion in the Second World War","description":"Despite the wealth of historical literature on the Second World War, the subject of religion and churches in occupied Europe has been undervalued – until now. This critical European history is unique in delivering a rich and detailed analysis of churches and religion during the Second World War, looking at the Christian religions of occupied Europe: Catholicism, Lutheranism, Calvinism, and Orthodoxy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe authors engage with key themes such as relations between religious institutions and the occupying forces; religion as a key factor in national identity and resistance; theological answers to the Fascist and National Socialist ideologies, especially in terms of the persecution of the Jews; Christians as bystanders or protectors in the Holocaust; and religious life during the war. \u003ci\u003eChurches and Religion in the Second World War\u003c\/i\u003e will be of great value to students and scholars of European history, the Second World War and religion and theology.","brand":"Bloomsbury USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47164479832304,"sku":"9781472504791","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781472504791_p0.jpg?v=1763598039","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781472504791","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
