Fabrizio Caramagna (born 23 September 1969) is an Italian writer and aphorist.
Career
Fabrizio Caramagna was born in Turin on 23 September 1969.[1]
Until the age of six he lived in the Turin countryside with his grandparents, where he spent a happy childhood, developing a particular sensitivity for nature and the world of animals.[2]
After graduating from high school, he graduated in 1994 in modern literature at the University of Turin with a thesis on the Turin poet Guido Gozzano. Since his university days, he has always dealt with short form literature.
After abandoning the idea of pursuing a career as a university researcher and having carried out the Italian civil service, he began to collaborate as an assistant for a politician.[2]
At the end of 2000, having abandoned all previous commitments, he founded Aforisticamente,[3] one of the main Italian websites dedicated to aphorisms.
Despite his great passion for writing, his first published book dates back to 2009. It was "Contagocce, 69 aforismi",[4][5] published by Genesi Editore. His second book, "Linee di seta",[6] was published by Lietocolle in 2012.
In 2018, Caramagna signed a contract with the Mondadori, with which he first published "Il numero più grande è due"[7][8] (2019) and then "Se mi guardi esisto"[9] (2020).
Since 2011, Caramagna has been involved in translating and editing works by foreign and Italian aphorists. Among the best known aphorists of which he edited some books are Antonio Porchia[10] and Carlo Gragnani.
He collaborates with many authors for the drafting of anthologies dedicated to aphorism and short forms. The best-known anthologies he has worked on are "Afocalypse, l'Antologia dell'aforisma contemporaneo rumeno",[11] "L'aforisma in Spagna"[12] and "The New Italian Aphorists"[13][14] (anthology to which Maria Luisa Spaziani, Alberto Casiraghi, Antonio Castronuovo and Maura Del Serra also contributed).
Fabrizio Caramagna is one of the founders of the Italian Association for Aphorism ("Associazione Italiana per l'Aforisma"),[15] in which he holds the role of general secretary.
In 2014, he participated in the short film "Il mondo in una frase" ("The world in a sentence"),[16] dedicated to the world of aphorisms with Allegra Nasi as director.
Fabrizio Caramagna's aphorisms have been translated into numerous languages including English, Serbian, Arabic, Romanian, French, Spanish and Polish.[1]
He is currently also a member of the jury of the International Prize for the Aphorism Torino in Sintesi.[17]
In 2020 he won the "Radoje Domanovic" prize - foreign section "Excellence of satire, Ekselencija satire".[18]
In 2022, he was a guest on the show Le Parole,[19] broadcast by Rai 3 and hosted by Massimo Gramellini.
