Summary "Orazioni" by Ada Negri is a collection of speeches written in the early 20th century. The book reflects on the life and legacy of Alessandrina Ravizza, a woman who dedicated herself to social justice and the upliftment of the marginalized in society. Through her impactful actions, including founding schools and providing assistance to the impoverished, Ravizza symbolizes human resilience and compassion. The opening of "Orazioni" introduces Alessandrina Ravizza's profound influence on her community as it describes her somber encounter with a funeral procession in Milan. The narrative captures her enduring spirit and dedication as she silently follows the cart of a nameless deceased, connecting her sense of loss to the collective sorrow of the people. Negri sets the tone for Ravizza's portrait as a figure of grace and strength, blending her humanity with a deep understanding of societal suffering, as well as the importance of addressing and alleviating the pain of others. This powerful imagery establishes the theme of compassion and social responsibility that runs throughout the work. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
