Le corricolo by Alexandre Dumas
"Le corricolo" by Alexandre Dumas is a travel work published between 1841 and 1843, recounting his 1835 journey from Rome to Naples. Traveling clandestinely under a false name after being banned as a suspected republican agitator, Dumas explores southern Italy and Sicily. The work blends personal experiences with popular tales and traditions, offering vivid sketches of Neapolitan life—from the lazzaroni to the evil eye. It includes one of literature's first descriptions of
pizza and concludes Dumas's Italian travel trilogy. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
