The city was ruled by Ferdinand the 1st and his son Alfonso the 2nd, who later became the King of Naples. The first Jewish immigrants arrived in the town in 1492 after wandering between the various ports of the Mediterranean. Many of those who came were sick, which caused a plague to break out in the city. King Ferdinand the 1st was successful in eradicating the epidemic. After King Ferdinand died, his son Alfonso the 2nd became king but fled to Sicily, and Charles VIII, King of France, entered Naples. Shortly after that, riots broke out among the Jewish inhabitants. In 1510, Fernando the 2nd issued a deportation order for the Jews. Some families who fled were called Palumbo. Those who converted to Christianity remained in the city. "
"And if the results of your research will show that you are of African descent, does that change anything for you?"
"And if the results show that I am of Jewish descent?"
Beatrice's face suddenly turned serious as she remembered her "Jewish nose," but immediately recovered, and her smile returned.
"It was great talking to you. We may find out one day that we are relatives."
"And Jewish, too," he replied, giggling as he walked away.
She remained tucked in her chair for a long hour staring into the air and in deep thought.

Uri Jerzy Nachimson

Uri Jerzy Nachimson was born in Szczecin, Poland, in 1947, and two years later, his parents immigrated to Israel. In 1966 he was drafted into the Israeli army, where he served as a war photographer in the Northern Command and participated in the ‘six days war’ as a photographer in combat. His travels and adventures worldwide are recorded in the various books he has written, including Seeds of Love and Broken hearts at Boulevard Unirii. When he went back to Poland in 1990 to seek his roots, he was deeply affected by the attitude of the Poles towards the Jews both during and after World War II and decided to research the history of the Jews of Poland during that era. Thus the trilogy was born; Lilly's Album, The Polish Patriot and Identity. Uri's grandmother, Ida Friedberg, was the granddaughter of the known Jewish writer A.S. Friedberg, author of many books. In 2008, Uri relocated to Tuscany in Italy, where he lives with his wife. While in Cortona, he wrote: Two Margherita, Isabella, Into the depth of Silence, Violette & Ginger, Recalled to life, and Rembrandt for Sale. All of his books have been translated into many languages. more…
