Writer and journalist but above all traveller, Paolo Rumiz has crossed, on numerous occasions, the many frontiers of the Mediterranean Sea, telling the tales of the places and the people that inhabit them.
An attentive eye has helped him capture the men and women that encompass the history of Europe and the Near East.
Meetings Corte della Mole Vanvitelliana
Presented by Sergio Sparapani
Memories and lessons from the First World War told, at first hand, by Paolo Rumiz, who in his travels has crossed more times frontiers that, a century ago, have become frontlines between countries at war, putting himself in the shoes of those who in ‘15 were catapulted into the “senseless slaughter” that changed Europe and the world forever. What is left of those bloodbaths? What lessons have been learned and which, rather, have been forgotten, a century after Italy’s entrance in the Great War? These are the questions asked before setting off on a trip of discovering places, people and their stories.
Paolo Rumiz writer and journalist, was sent off by Trieste’s Il Piccolo and as editorial journalist for La Repubblica. He has travelled at great length across Europe, the Mediterranean and the East.
