La Civiltà Cattolica (Italian for The Catholic Civilization) is an Italian Jesuit monthly magazine founded 1854 in Naples.

It's first director was Carlo Maria Curci, who obtained the approval of Pope Pius IX.

During the 1880s, after moving to Rome, it was brought under the direct control of the Vatican, with its editors appointed by Cardinal Secretary of State or Pope, and many key articles written by the Pope himself.[1]
