| Summary |
"Itsenäinen Suomi, unelmasta todellisuuteen" by Edv. Hjelt is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work discusses the evolution of Finland's independence movement, focusing on the profound struggles and experiences that shaped the desire for self-governance. Hjelt intertwines his personal journey with the broader narrative of the Finnish people's aspirations, portraying their transition from a vague dream of autonomy to the harsh realities of warfare and political turmoil that ultimately led to independence. The opening of the work sets the stage by reflecting on the longstanding heart of the independence idea within the Finnish people, initially viewed as an elusive dream. It highlights significant historical milestones, such as the periods of oppression under foreign rule and the fierce battles that characterized the fight for national sovereignty. Hjelt expresses not just the collective aspirations of the nation but also his own pivotal role in advocating for Finland's autonomy. The introduction conveys a deep sense of commitment to the cause and emphasizes that the eventual realization of independence was a culmination of enduring sacrifices and relentless perseverance.
