Fabrizio Lelli is Associate Professor of Hebrew Language and Literature at the University of Salento (Lecce, Italy). His research focuses mainly on the philosophical and mystical literature of late Medieval and Early Modern Italian Jewish authors and on the intellectual relations between Jewish and Christian scholars in the Italian Renaissance.
"The close connection of cultural heritage and the shaping of one's personal identity has always represented the major focus of my intellectual concerns: in other words, we are the fruit of what nourishes us spiritually and rationally, the achievement of the learning acquired at home and at school, the result of an ongoing purposeful or fortuitous exchange with other individuals or social groups."

At the end of WWII, Jewish refugees were temporarily hosted in transit camps in Apulia, which had been established under the aegis of the United Nations and the Allied Forces, with the support of International Jewish organizations. Professor Lelli's talk will illustrate the post-Holocaust reconstruction through the personal testimonies of those refugees who experienced the transit camps in Bari, Barletta, Santa Maria al Bagno, and other villages in Apulia (Italy). Professor Lelli and the audience will also interact in a video conference interview with Al Finci, who will let us know about the daily life of the refugees in the camps, their feelings and hopes, and their life experience before migrating to the United States. This event will allow us to have an idea of the post-Holocaust reconstruction and to reflect upon an important page of contemporary history.
