Summary "Dedica - Scarabocchio" by Valentino Carrera is a theatrical work written in the late 19th century. This piece likely focuses on the intersection of personal struggles and societal perceptions through the lens of its main character, Gaspare, who has been ridiculed for his disability, dubbed "Scarabocchio." The narrative explores themes of identity, compassion, and the power of friendship, suggesting a commentary on how society treats those who are different. The opening of "Dedica - Scarabocchio" sets the stage in a village where Gaspare, a disabled man, reflects on his past while being mocked by children in the square. Caterina, a compassionate character, tends to her flowers, expressing concern for Gaspare's well-being. The interaction between Caterina and Bernardetto reveals the dynamics of their relationship and their feelings for Gaspare, whose talent and potential remain obscured by his physical limitations. As Gaspare arrives, the scene fills with humor and warmth, highlighting his determination to define his own identity, ultimately setting up a narrative that promises both comedic and heartfelt moments in his journey toward self-acceptance.
