Beschreibung

6 1/2 x 10", 410 pages. The national folk epic of Finland is here presented in an English translation that is both scholarly and eminently readable. To avoid the imprecision and the metrical monotony of earlier verse translations, he uses prose, which he prints line for line as in the original, so that the use of repetition and parallelism and variation is readily apparent.
