13th National “Salva la tua lingua locale” Award

Two volumes from the Zimme de braxa series, published by Editrice Zona under the auspices of the Conseggio pe-o patrimònio linguistico ligure, were honored at the thirteenth edition of the National “Salva la tua lingua locale” (Save your local language) Award, organized by the Italian National Pro Loco Union and the Eugenio Montale International Center. Gh’é o vento ch’o mescia by Paolo Besagno won joint first place in the Published Poetry category, while Ei foe déi ferguò by Roberto Benso was a finalist in the same category.

The award ceremony will take place on December 5, 2025 in Rome, in the Protomoteca Hall on the Capitoline Hill.

With these recognitions, the series confirms its role as a key reference point for the promotion of the Ligurian language and literature.
