Three examples of cultural references that were included in Cenerentola are:

The stepsisters in Cenerentola which reflected the importance of family structure and the rough patches shown throughout households. The dynamic of the large family shoes the example of favoritism and the importance of hierarchy in a family.

Another example is the food shown in the story. The amount of food and quality of food shown at the grand feasts exemplify the Italian culture. The feasts bring the community together as it does in the Italian culture as well.

One more example is the fairy represented by a dove. The guidance and knowledge the fairy has is a good example and role model for Cenerentola. This was seen especially because she never really had a mother figure in her life and was on her own for majority of the time, so the fairy was the one true person guiding her.

The theme or moral of the story of Cenerentola is shown around the thought that kindness, patience, and hard work will, in time, be rewarded, even while being mistreated. She had stayed humble through all of her time cleaning ultimately led her to the chance to transform into something magnificent. This story highlights the negatives and the corruption of the power of jealousy and envy. The true beauty comes within and not on the outside, and hard work will pay off in time and for the better.
