Solaria was a 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] It was inspired from two magazines: La Voce and La Ronda.[5] The founders were Alessandro Bonsanti and Alberto Carocci.[3] Its publisher was Edizioni di Solaria, and the magazine was published on a monthly basis.[6][7] As of 1929 Giansiro Ferrata served as the co-editor of the magazine.[8] Alessandro Bonsanti replaced him in the post in 1930 which he held until 1933.[8]

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 the European modernism.[1] The magazine adopted a modernist approach.[9] Solaria had an anti-fascist stance.[10] The contributors of the magazine were mostly the short story writers.[6] They included Alberto Carocci, Eugenio Montale, Elio Vittorini, Carlo Emilio Gadda.[11] and Renato Poggioli.[12] The novel of Elio Vittorini, Il garofano rosso, was first published in the magazine.[13] The magazine also featured poems by young Italian artists, including Sandro Penna.[1][14] Gianna Manzini published her first short stories in the magazine.[5] Solaria was harshly criticized by other Italian literary circles and magazines, including Il Selvaggio, Il Bargello and Il Frontespizio, due to its frequent coverage of the work by Jewish writers.[15]

After producing a total of forty-one volumes Solaria ceased publication[6][12] in 1936.[1] Its final issue was dated 1934, although it was published in 1936.[1] In fact, it was censored by the fascist authorities partly due to the serialization of Elio Vittorini's novel, Il garofano rosso, in the magazine.[1][16]
