Augusto Monti

Augusto Monti (29 August 1881 in Monastero Bormida – 11 July 1966 in Rome) was an Italian writer and professor.

Strenuous opposer of fascism since its beginning, he was imprisoned by the regime. During the 2nd post-war he became an important representative of the world of Italian literature and of the pedagogy.[1] He taught at Liceo Classico Massimo d'Azeglio in Turin.[2]
