Aut Aut is an Italian-language critical philosophy and literary magazine published in Milan, Italy. Its name is of Latin origin and refers to existential choice and also, to Søren Kierkegaard's either/or conceptualization.[1]

History and profile

Subtitled Rivista di filosofia e di cultura,[2] Aut Aut was founded in 1951 by Enzo Paci.[3][4] Enzo Paci was also the editor-in-chief of the magazine until his death in 1976.[5] The magazine is based in Milan.[2][6]

Aut Aut has a phenomenological and existentialist orientation.[1][3] The magazine covers articles on philosophy, literature, sociology, linguistics and also, on architecture and urbanism.[4]

Gillo Dorfles is among the significant former contributors.[6] Roberto Sanesi started his career as a critic in the magazine in the 1950s.[7] Pierre Aldo Rovatti was on the editorial board of the magazine between 1974 and 1976.[3] During that period it became a significant forum for the discussions of Marxism and poststructuralism.[3] Afterwards it continued to be published as a critical magazine.[3]
