- Abstract
Celeste Di Porto gained notoriety as the "Black Panther". The young Jewess from Rome had joined a group of Italian collaborators in 1944, who tracked down hidden Jews in the Eternal City to betray them to the Germans and earn the bounty. At the centre of the documentation is the judgment passed by a jury court in Rome in 1947 against Celeste Di Porto and her accomplices. This opinion, which is an example of source material hitherto mostly unknown to German historiography, allows for a reconstruction of the practices of the group around the "Black Panther" as well as the mechanisms of collaboration between the German bureaucracy of extermination and their willing Italian helpers. Additionally, the verdict highlights how post-war Italian society dealt with Fascism, collaboration and the persecution of the Jews.
