这是第一次用英语讲述了意大利大屠杀的精彩故事
1944年春天，罗马。纳粹对意大利犹太人的迫害达到了顶峰。吉奥瓦尼·博罗密欧（Giovanni Borromeo）是台伯河（River Tiber）上一家医院的主任医师，他决定冒着生命危险，把当地犹太社区的成员伪装成患有假想疾病的病人，并把他们藏在封闭的病房里。德国人害怕感染这种传染性很强的疾病，只被称为“K综合症”，因此上当受骗，犹太人逃过了被驱逐到纳粹死亡集中营的命运。这只是意大利人为抵抗大屠杀而进行的一场协调一致的秘密战斗的许多巧妙方式之一，在《综合征》中，著名历史学家克里斯蒂安·詹宁斯首次用英语探讨了这些方式。
该书借鉴了意大利、德国、梵蒂冈、瑞士、英国和美国的原始档案材料，讲述了意大利对最终解决方案的计划、执行和抵制的完整故事。
Syndrome K: How Italy Resisted the Final Solution (EPUB)
For the first time, the remarkable full story of how the Holocaust was fought in Italy is told in English
Rome, spring 1944. The Nazi’s persecution of Italian Jews was at its height. Giovanni Borromeo, the head physician at a hospital on the River Tiber, decided to risk his life by disguising members of the local Jewish community as patients afflicted with an imaginary disease, and hid them in closed wards. Fearing catching this highly contagious illness, known only as ‘Syndrome K’, the Germans fell for it, and the Jews escaped deportation to the Nazi death camps. It was just one of many ingenious ways the Italians fought a concerted, covert battle to resist the Holocaust, and in Syndrome K acclaimed historian Christian Jennings explores them for the first time in the English language.
Drawing on original archive material in Italy, Germany, the Vatican, Switzerland, the UK and US, the book tells the complete story of the planning, execution, and resistance to the Final Solution in Italy.
