Il calendario del popolo

Il Calendario del Popolo is a cultural and political magazine published in Italy since 1945.

[1] Il calendario del popolo was founded in March 1945 in Rome by the intellectual and theatre critic Giulio Trevisani.

Issued monthly during 65 years, it is a quarterly publication since 2010.

The editors in chief have been prominent personalities of Italian culture like Carlo Salinari - literary critic and partisan in Rome - and Franco Della Peruta, historian.

The magazine, supported by very active subscribers, acculturated the proletarian masses of the Italian post-war society, promoting several cultural initiatives and events like the Prize for dialect poetry "Premio Cattolica - Il Calendario del Popolo" which in 1950 - at its first edition - awarded the still unknown young writers and poets Pier Paolo Pasolini and Tonino Guerra.
