Abstract
Renzo, the protagonist of Manzoni's "I promessi sposi", travels twice to Milan and back home. Both journeys are important, but it is the investigation of the second homecoming in particular that seems to provide us with a telling allegory of the "juice of the whole story" : by showing the imperfect circle described by the character's journeys, as well as his reflection on the problematic relationship between happiness and memory.
