Produktinformationen zu „Kalevala : the Epic Poem of Finland - Complete (ePub)“
The 'Kalevala: the Epic Poem of Finland - Complete' presented by DigiCat Publishing, is a profound embodiment of Finnish mythology and folklore. This epic poem, rooted in oral tradition, was meticulously compiled from Karelian and Finnish oral history and folk poetry. Its narrative style is distinguished by alliteration and parallelism, adhering to the traditional Kalevala meter that is integral to its rhythmic scripture. It provides a rich literary context, reflecting both the cultural and societal paradigms of 19th century Finland and subsequently influencing the national identity and literature of the Finnish people. The work, in its entirety, is not only a window into the mythic past but also serves as a cornerstone for the study of Finno-Ugric languages and mythology.
The authorship of 'Kalevala' is attributed to the collective memory of the Finnish people, crystallized by the efforts of folklorists and scholars such as Elias Lönnrot who curated the verses into a cohesive narrative. The anonymous nature of its composition underscores the collective effort in preserving a cultural heritage, wherein the individual merges with the voices of the past. The historical and philological importance of the epic is enhanced by its role as an instrument fostering Finnish nationalism during the country's movements toward independence.
For those immersed in the study of epic literature, mythology, and cultural studies, 'Kalevala: the Epic Poem of Finland - Complete' is an indispensable treasure. It offers not only a journey through the mythical landscapes of ancient Finland but also provides a deep understanding of how a nation's folklore can weave the very fabric of its cultural identity. This edition by DigiCat Publishing, meticulously preserved and thoughtfully presented, ensures that both the scholarly audience and the passionate reader can experience the enduring legacy and rich tradition encapsulated within its verses.
