The content delves into the nature of literature and journalism, discussing the ephemeral nature of newspapers compared to the lasting impact of literary works. The opening presents a reflection on the rapid changes and frenetic pace of contemporary life, questioning the quality of intellectual output in a society that demands quick consumption and adaptability. At the start of the work, the author contrasts the fleeting existence of newspapers with the enduring essence of books, suggesting that literary compilations of diverse articles can capture the "color of time." He reflects on the transformation in literary styles due to societal changes and technological advancements, pondering if modern authors lack the ambition to create cohesive masterpieces. De Roberto touches upon the impact of democratic ideals on writing, hinting at a deep-seated tension between rapid societal progress and the profound longing for meaningful expression in both literature and life.
