description | The aim of the research.
The article analyzes the achievements of Soviet scientists on the histo-
ry of the Vatican during the Second World War. Particular attention is
paid to the research of M. Sheiman, I. Lavretsky, and E. Winter. Most
of the works were of a general nature, only some sections were devoted
to the period 1939–1945. At the same time, Soviet scholars focused
more attention on the Vatican's international policy and ignored the
internal affairs and prominent figure of Pius XII. In the course of the
study, the author found only some works that are directly devoted to
the history of the Vatican during World War II. Only one of them – M.
Sheinman's monograph – deserves to be a thorough title. The purpose
of study is a historiographic analysis of the works of Soviet scientists
about the Vatican in the Second World War. The relevance of the
study is dictated by the lack of one general historiographical work on
the Vatican in World War II. The method of research is based on a
historiographic analysis of the work of Soviet scientists. Conclusions.
In Soviet historiography, little attention was paid to the study of the
history of the Vatican. An analysis of Soviet books gives us the oppor-
tunity to argue that this topic did not really receive the proper and large
-scale coverage in Soviet historiography. In the vast majority of works,
it all came down to highlighting the relations of the Vatican and the
Soviet Union. The author paid special attention to the fact that Soviet
historians, having in their hands unique documents about the Vatican
during the Second World War, did not analyze them in detail, but sou-
ght in them only anti-communist character. Therefore, today all hope is
placed on a new generation of historians who will carry out a thorough
analysis of all these documents. |
