| Summary |
"Il Principe della Marsiliana" by Emma Perodi is a Roman novel written in the late 19th century. The story introduces us to Don Pio, the Prince della Marsiliana, who is embroiled in the complexities of political elections in Rome. Alongside him is the intelligent yet ambitious Fabio Rosati, who navigates this politically charged environment in his pursuit of influence and connection with the upper class. At the start of the novel, the scene is set during a vibrant Saturday evening at an osteria in Trastevere, where conversations revolve around the upcoming elections and the public’s opinion of the prince. The main character, Fabio Rosati, is seen interacting with various figures in the local community, highlighting the political tensions and the pressures surrounding Don Pio's candidacy. Throughout the opening portion, there is a focus on the contrasts between the prince’s aristocratic background and the expectations placed upon him by the working class, as well as his relationship with his wife, Princess Camilla, whose actions influence public perception. This rich tapestry of characters and their ambitions sets the stage for a story that intertwines themes of political maneuvering, personal loyalty, and social dynamics.
