FAQs

What was the poem Lapide ad ignominia that Piero Calamandrei wrote?

It is his antifascist poem of 4 December 1952 answering Albert Kesselring's claim that Italians ought to build him a monument.

Lapide ad ignominia, which can be translated as A Monument to Ignominy, is an antifascist poem Piero Calamandrei wrote on 4 December 1952. It answered the German general Albert Kesselring, who had been sentenced to death for war crimes during the Nazi occupation of Italy, saw that sentence commuted, and after his release refused to repent and claimed that Italians ought to build him a monument. In the poem Calamandrei says that if Kesselring returned he would indeed find a monument, but one stronger than stone, made up of the fighters of the Italian resistance movement.
