Synopsis

Italy observed and recounted with irony and affection, but without indulgence, in its most evident features and its most hidden depths: the rituals, the festivities, pastimes, food, passions, and great historical defects. It is a satirical or semi-serious gallery of characters (the politician, the teacher, the doctor, the "Moroccan," the notary, the cabineer, the big eater . . .) that make the social and human climate of a country unmistakable.
