| Summary | "I Moncalvo" by Enrico Castelnuovo is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative begins with the protagonist, Giorgio Moncalvo, returning to Italy after a long period abroad in Berlin. The story explores his reflections on life, family, and the contrasts between his past and present, set against the backdrop of Italy's evolving identity. The opening of "I Moncalvo" introduces Giorgio Moncalvo as he strolls through Villa Borghese, where he is flooded with memories of his youth. He grapples with feelings of nostalgia and the loss of his mother, reflecting on his family's journey from modest beginnings to a more complex, prosperous existence. As he navigates his emotions about returning home and encounters his relatives, particularly his cousin Mariannina, the dynamics of family relationships, personal aspirations, and societal changes begin to unfold, setting the stage for further explorations of identity and ambition.
