Solaria was an Italian language modernist literary magazine published in Florence, Italy, between 1926 and 1936. The title is a reference to the city of sun.[1] The magazine is known for its significant influence on young Italian writers.[2]

History and profile

Solaria was established in Florence in 1926.[3][4] The founders were Alessandro Bonsanti and Alberto Carocci.[3] The publisher was Edizioni di Solaria.[5] The magazine was published on a monthly basis.[6]

The major goal of Solaria was to Europeanize Italian culture and to emphasize the contributions of Italian modernist writers such as Svevo and Federigo Tozzi to European modernism.[1] The magazine adopted a modernist approach.[7] Solaria had an anti-fascist stance.[8] The contributors of the magazine were mostly the short story writers.[5] They included Alberto Carocci, Eugenio Montale, Elio Vittorini, Carlo Emilio Gadda.[9] and Renato Poggioli.[10] The novel of Elio Vittorini, Il garofano rosso, was first published in the magazine.[11] The magazine also featured poems by young Italian artists such as Sandro Penna.[1][12] It was harshly criticised by other Italian literary circles and magazines, including Il Selvaggio, Il Bargello and Il Frontespizio, due to its frequent coverage of Jewish writers.[13]

After producing a total of forty-one volumes Solaria ceased publication[5][10] in 1936.[1] The final issue was dated 1934, although it was published in 1936.[1] In fact, it was banned due to the censorship exerted by the fascist authorities.[4][8] The reason for this censorship was partly the serialization of Elio Vittorini's novel, Il garofano rosso, in the magazine.[1][14]
