\"meis-1\"<\/a>By Adam Smulevich<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe raising of the 25 million euros intended for the project of the MEIS is almost complete. I hope I will make an announcement briefly,\u201d said Minister for Cultural Heritage Dario Franceschini last week on the occasion of the signature of the protocol between the National Museum of Italian Judaism and the Shoah in Ferrara and the Colosseum\u2019s Archaeological Park. <\/p>\n

The prestigious collaboration has been strongly supported by the minister, who seeks to set up \u201cjoint research and promotion projects, expertise exchanges, integrated digital communication strategies aiming to spread knowledge of the history of Judaism from the destruction of Jerusalem by Titus.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe protocol has been fully supported by minister Franceschini. The Colosseum\u2019s Archaeological Park wishes for these two institutions to engage in an open and inclusive dialogue with the citizenry. They should become a laboratory of ideas and reflection stimulating debate on Judaism as well as showing the importance of the encounter with other cultures,\u201d underlined Alfonsina Russo, director of the Colosseum Park. <\/p>\n

MEIS president Dario Disegni was on the same page. \u201cThe agreement will allow the development of a fruitful partnership between the two institutions, with a view of promoting the presence of Jews in Ancient Rome. The community stood out for its resilience and strong identity, and some archaeological areas are very significant for the history of Italian Judaism,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n

Dario Disegni underlined that \u201cAfter some years of intense cultural elaboration focused on the planning of the extraordinary architectural complex which will be built next to what used to be the old prison – but has been admirably restored as the centre of cultural life – MEIS moved on to the operational phase, which started on December 13, 2017, when the first major exhibition was opened by minister Franceschini\u2019s speech in the presence of the President of the Republic. The exhibition was named \u201cJews, an Italian story: The first thousand years\u201d and was curated by Anna Foa, Giancarlo Lacerenza and Daniele Jalla,\u201d Disegni added.<\/p>\n

That day marked the beginning of a journey which continued with another successful exhibition which has recently closed, covering the Renaissance from a Jewish perspective. <\/p>\n

As explained by director Simonetta Della Seta, \u201cMEIS is a lively place whose contents and spaces are expanding. The construction of the first modern building is going to start this week. Afterwards, we envision completing the museum with four more buildings to retrace symbolically the books of the Torah. The large complex which is about to be built will present a narrative as well as as an experiential museum which brings – and will continue to bring \u2013 prestige to artifacts and tales of Italian Judaism. It is tangible evidence of more than 2,000 years of Jewish presence in Italy.\u201d <\/p>\n

Della Seta added, \u201cVisitors recognize MEIS as a place encouraging reception, discussion and encounter with the other. We regard it as a fundamental mission, which is intertwined with the long history of Italian Judaism.\u201d<\/p>\n

The event ended with a lecture on Jews in Ancient Rome by professor Fausto Zevi.<\/p>\n
