Cavalleria Rusticana and Other Stories
Giovanni Verga, G. H. McWilliam
The
stories of Giovanni Verga (1840-1922) are wonderful evocations of
ordinary Italian life, focusing in particular on his native Sicily. In
an original and dynamic prose style, he portrays such eternal human
themes as love, honour and adultery with rich and colourful language.
The inspiration for Mascagni's opera, 'Cavalleria Rusticana' depicts a
young man's triumphal return home from the army, spoilt when he learns
that his beloved is engaged to another man. Verga's acute awareness of
the hardships and aspirations of peasant life can be seen in stories
such as 'Nedda', 'Picturesque Lives' and 'Black Bread', while others
such as 'The Reverend' and 'Don Licciu Papa' show the dominance of the
church and the law in the Sicilian communities he portrays so vividly.
