Summary
|
"Lutezia" by Anton Giulio Barrili is a novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative unfolds through the reflections and observations of an unnamed protagonist as he embarks on a journey to Paris. The story captures not only the personal experiences of the main character but also provides insights into the social and cultural landscapes of both Italy and France during the time. The opening of "Lutezia" introduces us to the protagonist's experience while traveling from Turin to Paris, reflecting on the changes and experiences he encounters along the way. With observations of the landscapes, the train journey, and the vibrant city of Paris, he offers comedic and insightful commentary on the differences between Italian and French customs. The protagonist's reflections on his travel, the impressions of cities like Turin, and the cultural nuances he observes set the stage for a deeper exploration of life in Paris during the era of the Universal Exposition, highlighting themes of identity, society, and cultural exchange.
