Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Leichte Gebrauchsspuren; Leichte Verschmutzung / Farbtonveranderung. Zivotopis katolickeho kneze a nacionalistickeho politika Jozefa Tisa (1887-1947) a prvniho prezidenta Slovenske republiky, vytvorene coby satelitni stat nacistickeho Nemecka. Po valce byl Tiso justici obnovene Ceskoslovenske republiky odsouzen k smrti pro vlastizradu a zlociny proti lidskosti. James Ward, docent evropskych dejin na Stanfordove univerzite, predstavuje Tisa coby hluboce zbozneho muze, ktery byl veden odhodlanim udrzet samostatny slovensky stat za kazdou cenu, a proto souhlasil s vyvrazdovanim slovenskych Zidu. Odmita vsak v Tisovi videt pouheho oportunistu: vyzdvihuje jeho cilevedomost a zavislost na mezinarodnich okolnostech, jejichz obeti do znacne miry byl. Prave tato smesice protikladu spolu s Tisovou neuveritelnou schopnosti popirat dusledky jeho vlastnich cinu nakonec vedla k jeho odsouzeni.…

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. In Priest, Politician, Collaborator, James Mace Ward offers the first comprehensive and scholarly English-language biography of the Catholic priest and Slovak nationalist Jozef Tiso (1887-1947). The first president of an independent Slovakia, established as a satellite of Nazi Germany, Tiso was ultimately hanged for treason and (in effect) crimes against humanity by a postwar reunified Czechoslovakia. Drawing on extensive archival research, Ward portrays Tiso as a devoutly religious man who came to privilege the maintenance of a Slovak state over all other concerns, helping thus to condemn Slovak Jewry to destruction. Ward, however, refuses to reduce Tiso to a mere opportunist, portraying him also as a man of principle and a victim of international circumstances. This potent mix, combined with an almost epic ability to deny the consequences of his own actions, ultimately led to Tiso's undoing. Tiso began his career as a fervent priest seeking to defend the church and pursue social justice within the Kingdom of Hungary.With the breakup of Austria-Hungary in 1918 and the creation of a Czechoslovak Republic, these missions then fused with a parochial Slovak nationalist agenda, a complex process that is the core narrative of the book. Ward presents the strongest case yet for Tiso's heavy responsibility in the Holocaust, crimes that he investigates as an outcome of the interplay between Tiso's lifelong pattern of collaboration and the murderous international politics of Hitler's Europe. To this day memories of Tiso divide opinion within Slovakia, burdening the country's efforts to come to terms with its own history. As portrayed in this masterful biography, Tiso's life not only illuminates the history of a small state but also supplies a missing piece of the larger puzzle that was interwar and wartime Europe. As portrayed in this masterful biography, Jozef Tiso's life not only illuminates the modern history of Slovakia but also supplies a missing piece of the larger puzzle that was interwar and wartime Europe.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Leichte Gebrauchsspuren. James Mace Ward vo svojom diele podava komplexny obraz Jozefa Tisa, jednej z narozporuplnejsich postav europskych dejin 20. storocia. Zaobera sa jeho rokmi studia za knaza rimskokatolickej cirkvi, vstupom na politicku drahu, angazovanostou na urovni ceskoslovenskej politiky az po funkciu hlavy Slovenskeho statu. Ward sa nevyhyba ani najkontroverznejsim kapitolam Tisovho zivota - predovsetkym jeho vojnovemu spojenectvu s nacistickym Nemeckom a zodpovednosti za vyvlastnenie, deportacie a napokon aj zavrazdenie slovenskych zidov. Zachytava Tisa ako cloveka presvedceneho o poslani katolicizmu, vasniveho nacionalistu a chladne uvazujuceho politika, odhodlaneho chranit svoju reputaciu aj manevrovaci priestor. Publikacia je prvym hlbkovym rozborom zivota tejto rozporuplnej osobnosti z inej ako slovenskej perspektivy. Na rozdiel od predchadzajucich zivotopiscov J. M. Ward uprednostnil chronologicky pristup, ktory priniesol mnohe prekvapenia.…
