“All Paths Lead to Rome” – Original Manuscript – Italy, 1944
Original manuscript of the poem “All paths… (duet-like)”, by Yitzchak Yitzchak (literary pseudonym used by Yitzchak Ben Shaul (1906-1979). Bari, Italy, late 1944.
The song was written for the Jewish Brigade troupe of music and entertainment in Italy. “All Paths – Kol Ha-Derachim” was one of the most famous songs of that troupe, and was performed by its members Chana Meron and Yosef Yadin. The song tells the tale of two Brigade soldiers in love who reach the gate of Titus in the dark of night, sometime towards the end of the war, expressing their awe of the moment but also their yearning to return home. [3] Notebook leaves, 20 cm. Good condition. Stains.
