Manara Valgimigli Explained

Manara Valgimigli (9 July 1876, in San Piero in Bagno – 28 August 1965, in Vilminore di Scalve) was an Italian classical philologist and Greek scholar, best remembered for his book Poeti e filosofi di Grecia (1965), which won a Viareggio Prize in non-fiction.

A member of the Italian Socialist Party, he was one of several prominent signatories of the Manifesto of the Anti-Fascist Intellectuals in 1925.^{[1] [2] [3] [4] [5]}

Legacy

In 1975, a psycho-pedagogical lyceum in Rimini was dedicated to Valgimigli. In 1998, it was merged with city's classical lyceum to become the multidisciplinary Julius Caesar–Manara Valgimigli Lyceum,^[6] the largest secondary school in the Province of Rimini.^[7]
