Participation in the “Narrativa Giovane” (young fiction writers) contest

The purpose of the “Narrativa Giovane” contest, sponsored by the Fondazione Spadolini foundation together with the Regional School Directorate, the City of Florence and the Fondazione ChiantiBanca foundation that is funding the project, is to promote the circulation of the ‘Nuova Antologia’ magazine among young secondary school students. 

The project involves fourth year Liceo students of several upper secondary schools in Florence and in Tuscany in general, freely selected by the teachers.

Participating students and teachers receive a one-year subscription to the “Nuova Antologia” magazine, ten for each school. The contents of the articles can therefore be read individually or collectively discussed in class.

The contest rules require students to individually write a short fiction story (3-4 pages of the “Nuova Antologia” magazine – maximum 11,000 characters spaces included) that talks about contemporary society issues (non-fiction is not allowed).

The juries on the prize awarding panel are: 

• Cosimo Ceccuti, president of Fondazione Spadolini Nuova Antologia,
• Milva Segato, member of the regional school directorate,
• Cristina Giachi, Deputy Mayor and alderman for Education of the City of Florence,
• Stefano Mecocci, president of Fondazione ChiantiBanca,
• Francesco Carrassi, director of La Nazione, 
• Rodolfo Cigliana and Paola Maresca representing Italian Schools, 
• Paola Lucarini, poet, 
• Roberto Marcori, editor
• Caterina Ceccuti, journalist, award secretary. 

The winner will receive the publication of his/her article while all of the student authors of the articles selected will receive a certification of participation.
