| Summary | "'A vilanza (la bilancia); Cappiddazzu paga tuttu" by Martoglio and Pirandello is a dramatic work written in the early 20th century. This text falls within the genre of dialectal theater and explores the intricacies of social and personal relationships in a Sicilian context. The title suggests themes of balance and justice, hinting at conflicts that challenge moral and ethical boundaries. The play unfolds in three acts, featuring characters caught in a web of love, betrayal, and societal expectations. Saru Mazza, an agronomist, faces challenges with his wife Anna, who is ensnared in a tumultuous relationship with Oraziu Pardu, an aggressive and manipulative figure. The action escalates as tensions rise between Saru and Oraziu, culminating in a tragic confrontation driven by jealousy and desperation. The interplay between personal desires and societal norms drives the characters toward a fateful climax, revealing the complexities of love and honor within a tightly-knit community. The work poignantly captures the emotional turmoil of its characters while challenging the audience to reflect on the nature of justice and retribution.
