Rome is not a city that can be understood quickly, and it is certainly not one that reveals itself fully through its most famous landmarks alone. It is a place built upon layers of time, meaning, and human activity, where the past does not sit quietly behind glass or within museum walls, but remains actively present in the streets, the buildings, and the rhythm of daily life. To encounter Rome is to engage with a city that exists across centuries at once, where ancient foundations support modern movement, and where every corner carries a sense of continuity that few other cities can match.

In Italia i crimini di guerra commessi all’estero negli anni del fascismo costituiscono un trauma rimosso, mai affrontato. Non stiamo parlando di eventi isolati, ma di crimini diffusi e reiterati: rappresaglie, fucilazioni di ostaggi, impiccagioni, uso di armi chimiche, campi di concentramento, stragi di civili che hanno devastato intere regioni, in Africa e in Europa, per più di vent’anni.
