Antonio Cufaro

Claudio is married to Cesarina, a frivolous and unfaithful woman. After the death of their only son their marriage is cold. While his wife lives her free life, Claudio is dedicated to the development of sophisticated weapons, elaborating the project of a new cannon; but smitten by the virtuous Jew Rebecca he can not surrender to his feelings because his religion prevents him from getting a divorce.

Un noble, para defender a su esposa del acoso de un maníaco, mata a éste durante la lucha, pero sufre una herida en la cabeza. Los médicos, al advertir que una parte del cerebro del noble se ha dañado, la sustituyen por idéntica parte del cerebro de la víctima.

Guglielmo Oberdan, the martyr of Trieste, already exemplary figure of fervent irredentist, then anti-Austrian conspirator executed for attempting to assassinate Emperor Franz Joseph after the disillusionment that followed the death of Garibaldi (1882), became, in 1915, the symbol of a civil case of patriotism.
