Pubblicata dall'editore Treves nel 1883, la raccolta di novelle "Per le vie" ha per protagonisti gli emarginati. Lo scenario questa volta però non è la Sicilia e la vita contadina. Verga infatti ci presenta la dura lotta per la sopravvivenza per gli ultimi in una grande città come la Milano ottocentesca.

Story0
In a picturesque Sicilian fishing village of the nineteenth century, the Malavoglia family stakes everything on a cargo of lupin nuts, hoping for a prosperous outcome. When disaster strikes and the cargo is lost at sea, a cascade of misfortunes befalls the family, leading to heart-wrenching tragedies. Revered as a masterpiece of social commentary within Italy yet overlooked by the broader world, The House by the Medlar Tree stands shoulder to shoulder with the works of Zola, Dickens, and Balzac among the greats of European literature. This poignant tale also inspired Luchino Viscontis 1948 ...

Story2
Le "Novelle rusticane" rappresentano uno dei momenti più alti e fortemente originali dello sperimentalismo narrativo del tardo Ottocento italiano. Pubblicate per la prima volta a Torino dall'editore Casanova nel 1883, rappresentano il secondo scritto verista di Verga. L'autore siciliano non solo affronta il tema della "roba", tema a lui carissimo e centrale nella sua poetica, ma introduce anche una serie di tematiche sociali ed economiche della Sicilia di fine '800.

Story0
Il romanzo narra la storia di una famiglia di pescatori che vive e lavora ad Aci Trezza, un piccolo paese siciliano nei pressi di Catania. Ha un'impostazione corale e rappresenta personaggi uniti dalla stessa cultura ma divisi dalle loro diverse scelte di vita, soverchiate comunque da un destino tragico ed inevitabile. L'autore adotta la tecnica dell'impersonalità, riproducendo alcune caratteristiche del dialetto e adattandosi quanto più possibile al punto di vista dei differenti personaggi, rinunciando così all'abituale mediazione del narratore.

Pubblicata per la prima volta nel 1878 nella pagine de Il Fanfulla, "Rosso Malpelo" è diventata nel corso degli anni un classico della letteratura italiana. Una novella che rappresenta ancora oggi una testimonianza vivida delle durissime condizioni dei lavoratori delle cave siciliane dell'800, costretti a una "non vita" fatta di fatiche e sofferenze estreme.

Story1
Ad Aci Trezza, nel catanese, vive la laboriosa famiglia Toscano, soprannominata Malavoglia. "I Malavoglia" è il primo romanzo dell'Italia unita, che con le sue nuove prospettive di vita preme sulle società tradizionali, determinando tensioni e disfacimento. Così nel finale del romanzo, nelle colpe di un progresso che travolge e di una modernità che sradica, non va letta una saga popolare, ma una tragedia contemporanea.

Protagonista del romanzo è Maria, una diciannovenne rimasta orfana di madre in tenera età e rinchiusa all'età di sette anni in un convento di Catania, costretta a diventare monaca di clausura per motivi di indigenza economica famigliare (il padre è un "modestissimo impiegato"). A causa dell'epidemia di colera che nel 1854 colpì la città siciliana Maria ha l'occasione di trasferirsi nella casetta del padre a Monte Ilice e vivere così con la famiglia per il periodo dal 3 settembre 1854 al 7 gennaio 1855.

"I Malavoglia," il romanzo più conosciuto ed apprezzato di Giovanni Verga, è la storia di una famiglia di pescatori di umili origini nel contesto della Sicilia rurale di fine '800. È l'affresco grandioso di una società meridionale aggrappata alle antiche usanze ma scossa dagli echi del progresso europeo, in cui i personaggi del romanzo subiscono sulla loro pelle le lacerazioni di un mondo che va inesorabilmente cambiando.

Sie war groß und mager, aber ihr Busen war voll und üppig, trotzdem sie nicht mehr jung war. Sie hatte ein bleiches Gesicht, als ob sie stets die Malaria gehabt hätte, ihre großen Augen waren stets pechschwarz und ihre Lippen gar frisch und rot. Im Dorfe nannte man sie die Lupa, die Wölfin, denn sie war unersättlich in allem. Die Weiber bekreuzigten sich, wenn sie sie allein und in sich gekehrt vorbeigehen sahen, mit dem schleppenden und lauernden Gang einer hungernden Wölfin, denn im Handumdrehen behexte sie die jungen Burschen und Ehemänner.

Pentolaccia war ein Sonderling, einer von jenen närrischen Leuten, die das gerade Gegenteil von dem machen, was alle guten Christenmenschen tun, die gewohnt sind, ihr Brot in Ruh und Frieden zu verzehren. Wenn man von allen gerne im Dorfe sprechen will, die irgendetwas Besonderes an sich hatten, so kann man Pentolaccia nicht beiseitelassen, denn über ihn ist gar vieles zu sagen und durchaus nichts Schönes, was man schon aus dem hässlichen Spitznamen ersehen kann, den ihm die Gevatter beigelegt (Kochtopf).

War die Welt nicht groß genug zum Kriegführen? Mussten sie gerade hierher kommen, um einander tot zu schießen? Gerade hierher auf dieses kleine Fleckchen Erde?! Zehn Meilen im Umkreise nichts als Schmerz und Elend, Trübsal und Trauer. Auf der Straße, zwischen den Hecken, hinter den Mauern wurden Menschen und Tiere dahingeschlachtet und der Humus auf den Feldern und in den Gärten bestand zum größten Teil aus Menschenknochen. Noch Monate nachher stieß man oftmals mit der Schaufel auf Schädel und Gebeine von ehrlichen Christenmenschen.

Don Candeloro war wirklich ein Künstler in seiner Art. Sein Vater war Marionettentheaterbesitzer, sein Großvater auch, und er war ebenfalls ein geborener Marionettenmann. Die Puppen waren sein Brot, seine Liebe, sein Ruhm, sein Leben, sein Alles. Alle diese Eigenschaften trugen dazu bei, dass sich die Tochter eines Gastwirtes, dessen Schenke neben seiner Bühne war, in ihn verliebte. Das Mädchen war ziemlich hässlich, aber sie hatte eine schöne, volle Stimme und sie musste sich auch ein hübsches Stückchen Geld erspart haben.

Er war vorsichtig geworden, seitdem er die Fäuste Don Candeloros verspürt hatte; und er sah sich überall um und spitzte die Ohren, ehe er die Arme nach ihr ausstreckte. Dadurch wurde das Mädchen noch mehr gereizt. Sie steckte ihm heimlich die besten Bissen zu und brachte ihm Wein. Die geringfügigsten, alltäglichsten Dinge sagte sie ihm mit bebender Stimme und mit einem schwärmerischen Blick.

Vito Scardo stand gleichfalls fluchend auf der Scheunentenne des Landwirtes Nasca. Der ließ seinen Zorn an seinen Kindern aus, die er mit Püffen und Stößen bedacht, während seine Frau mit rot geweinten Augen über den mageren Ähren brütete, den Säugling an der Brust, der furchtbar kreischte, weil er keine genügende Nahrung fand! Kurz, es gab Verzweiflung, Elend und Not überall, wohin man blickte; denn die Felder waren trostlos öde und dürr. Keine frohen Lieder ertönten, kein Mandolinenspiel, kein Tamburellenschlag!
