Summary: "L'antica madre" by Antonio Beltramelli is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book reflects on themes of identity, life, and death through the eyes of its main character, who grapples with profound emotional experiences, especially related to his familial ties and the natural world. Through poetic language and rich imagery, it explores a nostalgic connection to the past and the landscape that shaped the protagonist's formative years. At the start of the novel, the narrator reminisces about his childhood and the influences of his ancestors and the land that nourished him. The first striking memory that stands out is a dramatic sunset witnessed with his grandfather, which becomes a metaphor for the interplay of beauty and terror in life. This memory sparks a deep realization of life's transitory nature and ignites feelings of wonder and skepticism. As the narrator continues to reflect on his upbringing, he recognizes the nagging presence of doubt about human existence, ultimately leading to a search for meaning and connection amidst nature's majesty and the cyclical nature of life and death.
