SocialistStories حكايات اشتراكية

This story was written by the Sicilian writer Giovanni Verga (1840-1922), about a small rural town's revolt during the time the Italian nationalist Giusepped Garibaldi was in Sicily. Not only does this work depict a minor revolution of the peasants and the poor, it also shows how empty bourgeois nationalism is for the lower class, for freedom from foreign domination may improve the lot of the lower classes, but in the end bourgeois nationalism still perpetuates a subjugation of the lower classes, and works against genuine class struggle in every way possible.
