Abstract
Ennio De Giorgi was born in Lecce on 8 February 1928. His father, Nicola, taught literature at the high school in Lecce, and was an expert in Arabic, history and geography; his mother, Stefania Scopinich, came from a family of seafarers from Lošinj in Croatia. His father died prematurely in 1930, but his mother, to whom Ennio was especially close, lived until 1988.
