World Book Day, also known as World Book and Copyright Day or International Day of the Book, is an annual event organized by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) to promote reading, publishing, and copyright. The first World Book Day was celebrated on April 22, 1995, and is recognized on that day. A related event is celebrated in March in the United Kingdom and Ireland.
The original idea was that of Spanish writer Vincent Clevel Andrees, a way of honoring author Miguel de Sarwantes, first on October 7, his date of birth, then his death date on April 23. In 1995, UNESCO decided that World Book and Copyright Day would be celebrated on April 23, as the date dates date as well as the birth anniversary of Miguel de Servants, William Shakespeare and Inca Garcilaso de la Vega or the death of many other leading writers (in a historical coincidence, Shakespeare and death on the same day - 23 April 1616 - but not on the same day, as if at that time, Spain used the Gregorian calendar and England used the Julian calendar; The cervix actually died 10 days after Cervantes.
Book Day in Spain began to be celebrated every October 7 from 1926, the date on which Miguel Day Servants were born. However, it was considered more appropriate to celebrate this day in a more pleasant season to roam and browse books in the open air. Spring was much better than autumn. So in 1930, King Alphonso XIII approved the change of book day celebration on April 23, the likely date of Greaves' death.
