Summary "Marocco" by Edmondo De Amicis is a travel narrative written in the late 19th century. This work offers a vivid and descriptive account of the author's experiences and observations while journeying through Morocco, particularly the city of Tangier. De Amicis immerses readers in the cultural contrasts between European civilization and the intricate, mysterious life of Morocco, highlighting the rich tapestry of its inhabitants, customs, and landscapes. The opening of the book sets the stage for De Amicis’ exploration of Tangier, as he reflects on the striking differences between European and Moroccan life. Upon arriving, he is struck by the diversity of the local population, the vivid imagery of the market, and the distinct customs he encounters. He narrates his feelings of both intrigue and apprehension, as well as the peculiarities of Moroccan society, such as the symbolic gestures of the people and the struggle for power over their own lives amidst a complex cultural landscape. Each observation sheds light on the nuances of life in Morocco, making it an engaging read for those interested in travel, culture, or historical accounts of the region.
