History and profile

Parnasso was established in 1951.[3][4] It was modeled on Bonniers Litterära Magasin, a Swedish literary magazine.[5] The headquarters of Parnasso is in Helsinki.[6] The magazine is part of Yhtyneet Kuvalehdet Oy,[6] and its publisher is Otavamedia Oy.[7]

Parnasso is published seven times per year and covers original writings on poetry, short fiction, essays, literary journalism, and reviews of both belles-lettres and nonfiction work.[3] In 1959 Parnasso published a special edition on Japanese literature which included tankas, Japanese poetry genre, translated by Tuomas Anhava, its editor-in-chief.[2] This edition also featured a Finnish translation of the short story by Fumiko Hayashi.[2] In the 1960s one of the regular contributors was Pentti Saarikoski.[8] The magazine published Finnish translations of the poems by the Spanish poet Federico García Lorca and by the Chilean poet Pablo Neruda in 1950.[9] These poems were translated into Finnish by Jarno Pennanen, a Finnish poet.[9] Finnish translations of the poems by the Russian Vladimir Mayakovsky were also published by the magazine in its eighth issue dated 1963.[8]

During the editorship of Kai Laitinen the Congress for Cultural Freedom, an anti-communist American organization, attempted to develop an affiliation with Parnasso, but it did not work.[10]
