Origins and operations

It was established in 1969 in France by Simone Del Duca (1912 2004) to continue th
e work of her husband, publishing magnate Cino Del Duca (1899 1967).
Designed to recognize and reward an author whose work constitutes, in a scientif
ic or literary form, a message of modern humanism, the award currently[clarifica
tion needed] carries 300,000 prize.[1] [2]
In 1975, Madame Del Luca established the Simone and Cino Del Duca Foundation for
a variety of philanthropic purposes and it assumed responsibility for the award
. Following her death in 2004, the foundation was placed under the auspices of t
he Institut de France.
