Daniel Vogelmann (publisher)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Daniel Vogelmann (born May 28, 1948 in Florence ) is an Italian publisher and poet.

Life

Vogelmann, son of the Jewish printer Schulim Vogelmann and Albana Mondolfis who survived Auschwitz, has been publishing poems since the late 1960s.

Vogelmann has suffered from depression since childhood, which sometimes resulted in a desire for suicide. He believes that the reason for this is the experiences his father made, which made a normal life impossible for him and his family. A situation and disposition that Daniel Vogelmann shares with many members of the so-called second generation.

In 1974 his father died and he took over the Tipografia Giuntina , which he rebuilt after the liberation . As he was unsuitable as a printer, he opened his La Giuntina publishing house in 1980 . For this he also worked as a translator.

Since 1977 he has been married to Vanna Lucattini , a translator who converted to Judaism. The two have a son named Shulim (born 1978).
