Giulio Savelli

Giulio Savelli (27 September 1941 – 12 May 2020) was an Italian politician and publisher.

Born in Rome on 27 September 1941,[1] Savelli co-founded the publishing house Samonà e Savelli alongside Giuseppe Paolo Samonà in 1963.[2][3] Samonà left the business in 1968, and Savelli ran Samonà e Savelli on his own.[3] The publishing house released 1,200 titles, among them La strage di Stato (1970), about the Piazza Fontana bombing, and Porci con le ali (1976), co-authored by Marco Lombardo Radice and Lidia Ravera.[4][5] Savelli retired from publishing in 1976, leaving Samonà e Savelli to an editorial collective.[3] The publishing company closed in 1982.[3]

Savelli was elected to the Chamber of Deputies as a member of Forza Italia.[4][6] He sat on the Legislature XIII, which met between 1996 and 2001.[1]

Savelli was married to the journalist Pialuisa Bianco.[4] He died in Rome on 12 May 2020.[4][7]
