The real and the fantastic in Calvino's prose are very often intertwined. to the fullest extent this was manifested in the fairy tale and parable trilogy "Our Ancestors". including novels. the titles of which speak for themselves. In "The Double Viscount" the protagonist Medardo di Terralba is torn in two by a cannonball. and he is left with two halves. which begin an independent life. In "The Baron in the Tree" the young Cosimo Piovasco di Rondo decides to live in a tree. which is quite feasible in terms of the laws of nature. but impossible and fantastic socially. In "The Nonexistent Knight" the protagonist Agilulf. one of the paladins of Charlemagne's army. exists only in his armor. without it he does not exist.
