Its historic background is the misty age of feud and foray between the people of Kaleva and their more ancient neighbours of Pohjola, possibly the Lapps. Poetically it recounts the long quest of that singular and prolific talisman, the Sampo, and ends upon the first note of Christianity, the introduction of which was completed in the fourteenth century. Heroic but human, its men and women march boldly through the fifty cantos, raiding, drinking, abducting, outwitting, weeping, but always active and always at odds with the very perils that confront their countrymen today: the forest, with its savage animals, its myriad lakes and rocks and torrents; wind, fire, and darkness; and the cold.' From the Introduction by J. B. C. Grundy. The picture on the front of this jacket by Akseli Gallen~Kallela illustrates the famous passage in the 'Kalevala' where the young poet Joukahainen, whose sister Vainamoinen had seduced, lies in wait for him. The old lady's arguments so disturb his aim that he fires three bolts and misses every time. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 4152202
