Carlo Betocchi (23 January 1899 – 25 May 1986) was an Italian writer. Among the Hermetic poets he is considered a sort of moral guide. However, unlike them, he based his poems on direct language, realism and moral tension.

Betocchi has been compared to Giovanni Pascoli, Umberto Saba, the crepusculars, Clemente Rebora; but in the twentieth century his path was original.
