Summary note
"Matthew D. Hockenos tracks the divergent and discordant paths taken by prominent pastors, church leaders, and theologians as they sought to explain the church's role in Nazism. In addition to Karl Barth, the churchmen discussed at length include Hans Asmussen, Otto Dibelius, Hermann Diem, Hans Iwand, Hans Meiser, Martin Niemoller, Helmut Thielicke, and Theophil Wurm. The various and contradictory ways these men interpreted their actions and inaction during the Third Reich reflected long-standing divisions within Protestantism over the relationship between Jews and Christians, church and state, and Lutherans and Reformed Protestants."--Jacket.
