The root means both &#8220;to hope&#8221; and &#8220;to stretch a cord,&#8221; an ambivalence that gives rise to the evocative image of hope seen as a thread taut between what is and what is yet to come. Even when history seems to distance itself from the promise, that thread does not break.<br \/>\nAnd it is no coincidence that the national anthem of the State of Israel is Hatikvah.<br \/>\nIn the nearly two thousand years in which the Jewish people lived dispersed among the nations, they have continued to transmit both memory and expectation. Hope has been not only a consolation, but a principle of continuity: a force capable of holding a people together through time, exile, and the trials of history.<br \/>\nStarting from a Jewish perspective, this edition of <em>Ebraica <\/em>presents a four-day program of events in which, using languages \u200b\u200branging from literature to cinema, from theater to history and even neuroscience, the concept of hope finds a multitude of declinations capable of accompanying us in our daily lives.  <\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Participation in the Festival is free, subject to availability, and <strong>reservations are required<\/strong> on <span style=\"color: #3d70a4;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/Ebraica-Festival-2026\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Eventbrite<\/a><\/strong><\/span>.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Historic Jewish Quarter, Rome &#8211; from Sunday, June 14 to Wednesday, June 17, 2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":10909,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"event_category":[114],"ente":[],"class_list":["post-10910","evento","type-evento","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","event_category-national-events"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/torinoebraica.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/evento\/10910","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/torinoebraica.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/evento"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/torinoebraica.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/evento"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/torinoebraica.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10909"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/torinoebraica.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10910"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"event_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/torinoebraica.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event_category?post=10910"},{"taxonomy":"ente","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/torinoebraica.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ente?post=10910"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
