Pula Arena September 2024
Dear AIPI/LCPE Odv Members,
dear friends readers of L'Arena di Pola,
dear friends readers of L'Arena di Pola,
It is a source of great satisfaction, which rewards our commitment, the appreciation that, frequently, a little all of you renew towards our Sand, reiterating that they are “pages with a soul”.
And it is precisely by reconnecting to this beautiful expression that in this issue we report, among other things, on two very important September events that, having crossed, respected and honoured the past, have at the same time been able to turn a constructive eye to the future: the recent 67th meeting of the exiles from Pola and the four-day conference held in Fertilia.
The common thread was the significant moments experienced that, as is now customary, the iconographic synopsis on the front page summarizes. There is a collective image in memory of the gathering in Pola, the photo of the delivery - again in Pola - of the award "Istria Terra amata" to Rodolfo Ziberna, the poster of the preview of the documentary film Route 230° return to the land of the fathers.
Here is the summary of the September issue:
• pp 3-4-5-6-: not a reunion, but a meeting of emotions the 67th meeting of the exiles from Pola
• pp 7-8-9-10: The spirit of Fertilia and fertility, two symbolic neologisms to summarise future projects of our history
