La Ronda ( Italian: The Round) was a literary magazine which existed in Rome, Kingdom of Italy, between April 1919 and November 1922. In December 1923 a special issue was also published.

History and profile

La Ronda was first published on 23 April 1919. [1] It was founded by the poet and writer Lorenzo Montano. [2] The magazine came out monthly and was headquartered in Rome. [3] It was modeled on the Bologna-based magazine La Raccolta. [4]

Vincenzo Cardarelli, Aurelio E. Saffi, Riccardo Bacchelli, Antonio Baldini, Bruno Barilli, Emilio Cecchi and Lorenzo Montano were the members of its editorial board in the first year. [5] From the second year only Cardarelli and Saffi continued to serve in the post. [1] In addition, Cardarelli was the editor-in-chief of La Ronda. [1] Following the closure of La Raccolta in February 1919 its editor Giuseppe Raimondi joined La Ronda as its secretary which he held for a while. [6]

The aim of La Ronda was to reinforce a modernist literary approach supporting the values of literature understood as a style. [1] [3] In the first editorial Cardarelli argued that it was time to focus on the Italian modernism which had delayed due to World War I. [7] The magazine managed to develop a literary movement which was called rondismo [3] which harshly criticized the futurism movement calling its adherents as literary destroyers. [8] La Ronda avoided taking part in political discussions. [9] Instead, it attempted to develop connections with international literary circles to make the Italian literary work much more known. [7] The magazine had an elitist approach and was not read by the masses. [1]

La Ronda had three major sections: discussion of literary and cultural affairs, major literary work and theories and review section which included both letters and reports on other magazines. [10] Notable contributors of the magazine included Guglielmo Ferrero, Vilfredo Pareto, Filippo Burzio, Giuseppe Raimondi, Alberto Savinio, Ardengo Soffici and Carlo Carrà. [8] Of them Ardengo Soffici left the magazine soon due to its apolitical stance and its insistence on returning to formal literary style. [9] La Ronda also featured translations of the work by Robert Louis Stevenson, Herman Melville, Gilbert Keith Chesterton, Hilaire Belloc, George Bernard Shaw, Edgar Lee Masters and Thomas Hardy. [8]

La Ronda ceased publication in November 1922 after producing a total of 34 issues. [5] In December 1923 a special issue was released. [5]

Solaria, a literary magazine started in 1926, was influenced from La Ronda. [11]

All issues of La Ronda were archived under the project Circe at the University of Trento. [5]
