Filippo Aliquò Taverriti (Reggio Calabria, 19 July 1902 – Reggio Calabria, 29 March 1976 ) was an Italian journalist, essayist and lexicographer.
Biography[edit]
Taverriti was the son of the writer and librarian Luigi Aliquò Lenzi.[1][2] He began his journalistic activity at a very young age: at just twenty he collaborated with Orazio Cipriani's Corriere di Calabria. From 1937, he directed the monthly Reggio Emilia Agricoltura e Commercio (which was founded in 1936 as the continuation of the periodical L'agricoltura Calabrese).[3]
Taverriti was a correspondent for numerous national newspapers such as Il Messaggero, and a co-director of the newspaper La Voce di Calabria after the Second World War. In 1953, he founded the weekly newspaper Corriere di Reggio, which lasted until the mid-1990s.[4]
Taverriti was also active in the regional political life, having been among the founders of the Christian Democracy in Calabria.[5]
With his father Luigi, he was the co-founder of the second edition of the bio-bibliographic dictionary of Calabrian writers,[6] as well as the author of historical essays including those covering the 1908 Messina earthquake,[7][8] and the monograph on the contribution of the Calabrieni to Garibaldi's undertaking.[9]
He was the father of Luigi Aliquò, an Italian lawyer, politician, journalist, and historian.

After the daily newspaper he founded the weekly [the "Corriere di Reggio"], without ever taking his eyes off the books."
