| Zusammenfassung: | Those who came back from the death camps inscribed an imperative in the way that they expressed and performed the continuous invention of life. For the Italian poet Gerardo Sangiorgio, this meant writing and teaching a form of poetry that was seemingly immersed in ordinary life. In fact, it was always extraordinary and dealt with life’s ongoing challenge.
