The Lie Deception E Forgiveness: Love Without Boundaries

By: Cusimano, Mauro

FOREWORD
The roots of time: traditions
and patriarchy in the Misilmeri
of the past in Misilmeri, time was not measured by the passing of months or years, but by the immutable rhythm of the seasons and cycles of the earth. It was a community governed by a code as old as the mountains that surrounded it, a system of traditions and unwritten rules that permeated every single aspect of daily life, transforming the town into an armored microcosm.
Patriarchy as an absolute law
The supporting pillar of that society was a granite and indisputable patriarchy. Within the families - whether it was the noble palace of the La Rosa or the dusty hut of the Gallo family - the figure of the father was invested with an almost divine and fearsome authority. His word was law, his decision did not admit of reply. It was the man who decided the fate of the house, who managed the work, who established the boundaries of permission and prohibition. Women - mothers, daughters, sisters - guarded the domestic hearth and external decency, but they lived confined in a role of silent submission, subordinate to male honor. For a woman, the main virtue was silence; her reputation was a fragile crystal vase that a single false step could shatter, dragging the entire family into shame.
