Synopsis de l’éditeur
"Through the harrowing stories of the victims, accounts of heroic confrontation with Japanese soldiers, and personal testimony, Minnie Vautrin's diaries provide a wealth of information on the Nanking Massacre. A close reading of her remarkable descriptions will help historians and students understand the tragic consequences of war from the vantage point of a civilian who worked helplessly to protect Chinese civilians from Japanese brutality." Christian Henriot, author of Prostitution and Sexuality in Shanghai: A Social History, 1849-1949 "In what was undoubtedly a labour of love, Suping Lu has provided a moving account of Wilhelmina "Minnie" Vautrin, an American missionary and educator trapped in Nanjing during the Japanese occupation...It is undeniably a powerful account...as a researcher who uses many wartime diaries I found the book to have many points of interest...This book will immediately communicate the severity of the massacre to a general audience...the terrible psychological effects of the Japanese invasion on such a good-hearted person come across vividly, and are difficult to forget." Aaron William Moore, The China Quarterly, Sept 2009 Lire la suite...
