Sa laurera (Peasant's labour in Sardinia) is an anthropological essay by Giulio Angioni, published by Edes in 1976 and by Il Mestrale in 2003.
Sa laurera (from Catalan "arar", "cultivar") is an accurate record of operations, seasonal fases, ways of working and vocabulary (with original illustrations) carried out by peasants in traditional Sardinia, before the great transformation in the second half of the twentieth century.
Sa laurera is to be considered along with other books by Giulio Angioni: Rapporti di produzione e cultura subalterna: contadini in Sardegna, Edes 1974; I pascoli erranti: antropologia del pastore in Sardegna, Liguori 1989; L'architettura popolare in Italia: Sardegna (with A. Sanna), Laterza 1988; Pane e formaggio e altre cose di Sardegna, Zonza 2002. [1]
Grazia Maria Cosima Damiana Deledda, also known in Sardinian language as Gràssia or Gràtzia Deledda, was an Italian writer who received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1926 "for her idealistically inspired writings which with plastic clarity picture the life on her native island [i.e. Sardinia] and with depth and sympathy deal with human problems in general". She was the first Italian woman to receive the prize, and only the second woman in general after Selma Lagerlöf was awarded hers in 1909.
Pecorino Romano is a hard, salty Italian cheese, often used for grating, made with sheep's milk. The name "pecorino" simply means "ovine" or "of sheep" in Italian; the name of the cheese, although protected, is a simple description rather than a brand: "[formaggio] pecorino romano" is simply "sheep's [cheese] of Rome".

It is scored for voice, flute, clarinet, harp, viola, cello, and percussion. The composer arranged it for a large orchestra in 1973.
