"Comedia do Campo volume III (Scenas do Minho)" by Bento Moreno is a dramatic narrative likely written in the late 19th century. This work appears to capture the lives and struggles of rural characters in the Minho region of Portugal, exploring themes of hardship, orphanhood, and the complex dynamics within families and communities. The opening focuses on the plight of two orphaned children, Tone and Quina, highlighting their emotional turmoil and interactions with various adult figures. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Tone, who is taken in by different adults after the death of both his parents. The kind Father Carvalhosa brings the children to safety, but after the initial acceptance, they are forcibly separated, each going to live with different relatives. Tone's journey unfolds as he is reluctantly adopted by a family that seems well-off but is unfamiliar to him. The description captures his nostalgia for his past life, the emotional struggle of adjustment, and initial resistance to new circumstances, all set against a backdrop of austere, melancholic landscapes that accentuate the children's loss and longing.
