This is a file in the correspondence of Thomas Merton under the heading: "Levy-Duplatt, Maurizio, Dom, E.C.".
Born in Antwerp, Belgium, in 1903, Dom Maurizio (born Jacques) Levy-Duplatt was first a member of the Benedictine monastery of Clervaux in Luxembourg before transferring to the Camaldolese hermits in Frascati, Italy at Sacro Eremo Tuscolano in 1946. Merton corresponded with him as he pondered leaving Gethsemani to join the Camaldolese. (Source: The School of Charity, p. 86.)
