The essay proposes a critical and descriptive introduction to Fausta Cialente’s «Fronte unito», an Italian political and cultural magazine published weekly in Egypt from 1943 to 1946. The paper assesses the historical and political context in which Cialente conceived the project of an antifascist journal opened to all Italian prisoners and civilians in Egypt and North Africa. Through the study of Cialente’s private diaries, the note traces the lines of «Fronte unito» publishing history and puts attention to the contents and the significant changes in the internal arrangement of the magazine.
