Summary "Capitan Riccardo: romanzo" by Nicola Misasi is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative unfolds within a backdrop of conflict, centering around the character of Captain Riccardo, a rebel leader known for his honor and valor amidst the chaos of war. As the story opens, Riccardo is depicted as a seasoned yet weary warrior, grappling with the futility of his efforts in a seemingly endless struggle, indicating themes of obligation, ambition, and unrequited love. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Captain Riccardo, who commands a respected band of rebels, distinguished from others for their ethical conduct during warfare. Despite his victories, Riccardo is plagued by a sense of melancholy and dissatisfaction with the violent path his life has taken. Following a day of skirmishes with French forces, he grapples with feelings of disillusionment and loss, particularly concerning a mysterious woman from his past. The opening reveals tension among his companions regarding troop strength and potential alliance with a band led by a fierce woman named Vittoria. As events unfold, Captain Riccardo receives urgent news that both the ducal castle and possibly an old flame are in danger, setting the stage for rising stakes and emotional complexity in the narrative.
