Summary "Capitale e mano d'opera" by Valentino Carrera is a theatrical comedy written in the late 19th century. The play explores the dramatic and contemporary struggle between intellectual capital and the working class, intending to foster a necessary harmony among all interests without inciting hatred or violence. The central character, Carlo Valori, confronts the challenges of running a factory amidst the complexities of economics and labor relations, reflecting a broader conversation about social responsibility and the importance of uplifting the working class. The opening of the play introduces the domestic setting of Carlo Valori’s household in Florence, establishing a tense atmosphere concerning financial obligations and personal relationships. Various characters, including Carlo's wife Agnese and his mother Anna, engage in conversations that hint at underlying tensions related to Carlo's ambitions in the industrial world. As Carlo navigates discussions around capital and labor, themes of societal expectations, financial struggles, and familial pressures come to the forefront, setting the stage for the central conflicts that will unfold throughout the story. This initial act depicts not just domestic life, but the socio-economic realities of Italy during this period, blending personal drama with broader societal critiques.
