The Biscounted Viscount is a novel by Italo Calvino published in 1952. It is the first part of the Our Ancestors trilogy, which also includes the short novels The Baron in the Trees from 1957 and The Nonexistent Knight from 1959.
The novel is an important representative of verismo, Italian realism, and depicts the lives of people from the south of Italy, especially the conflicts between the poor peasantry and the decaying aristocracy.
In Florence 1925–1926, in the poor Via del Corno, the residents live in love, poverty and fear. The arrival of fascism destroys the community: lovers fight, some die from violence, but popular solidarity survives.
In "Masquerade," Moravia satirically depicts fascist Italy through absurd political intrigue and disguise. "Marital Love" intimately explores erotic tension, possessiveness, and emotional alienation in everyday life.
Through these stories, Moravia explores themes of social inequality, the struggle for survival, and human frailty, portraying them with a mix of humor, irony, and realistic observation.
