Summary | "Suomalaisen kirjallisuuden historia I: Kalevala" by Julius Krohn is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work delves into the significance of the Finnish national epic, the Kalevala, exploring its artistic value, thematic unity, and relationship to both Finnish culture and the broader context of world literature. It examines notable characters from the epic, such as Väinämöinen, Ilmarinen, and Lemminkäinen, while also analyzing the poem's origins and its impact on Finnish identity. The opening of the book sets the stage for a comprehensive study of the Kalevala, highlighting Krohn's intended exploration of its literary and cultural importance. He reflects on his academic lectures regarding Finnish literature and its historical backdrop, inspiring him to undertake this significant work. The author provides insights into the complexity and richness of the Kalevala, posing critical questions about its unity as a narrative and its role within the broader scope of epic poetry across cultures. This introductory portion not only lays the foundation for a scholarly analysis but also expresses a deep appreciation for the Finnish national heritage encapsulated within the Kalevala.
