Summary "Muistelmia matkoilta Venäjällä vuosina 1854-1858" by August Ahlqvist is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The book serves as a collection of travel memoirs detailing the author’s explorations in Russia, particularly focusing on the collection of Finnish folklore and the study of various Finnish dialects within the region. Ahlqvist’s firsthand observations provide insights into the cultural and linguistic diversity of the areas he visited. At the start of the memoir, the author introduces his purpose for traveling to Inkeri, emphasizing the significance of collecting traditional songs from the Finnish populace. He reflects on the challenges of documenting these experiences amidst the chaos of war, as the political climate has infiltrated the lives of ordinary people.
