| Summary | "Vittoria — Volume 3" by George Meredith is a novel written during the late 19th century. The narrative unfolds against a backdrop of political intrigue and personal passion in Italy, with a focus on the titular character, Vittoria, and her companion Carlo Ammiani, who traverse their intertwined fates in a time of unrest. The story contemplates themes of nationalism, love, and the struggles of the individual against societal pressures, particularly through the lens of art and personal sacrifice. At the start of the narrative, Carlo Ammiani escorts Vittoria to the Maestro's door, establishing a tense atmosphere that hints at the conflicts and intense emotions that will unfold. Their conversation reveals both their personal histories and a sense of impending turmoil as they navigate their patriotism and aspirations for Italy's future. Vittoria expresses a fervent desire to contribute to the cause of Italian freedom, yet struggles with the weight of her duty and the reality of the challenges ahead. The opening also introduces other characters, including Luigi, a spy, and Antonio-Pericles, who represent different facets of the societal and political landscape, setting the stage for the tensions and conflicts that will develop throughout the story. Overall, the beginning captures the essence of a dramatic journey towards self-realization and national identity amidst the throes of societal upheaval.
