 Kalevala - A Finland Epic கலேவலா - ...
Lo*nnrot seems to have favoured the latter at the expense of mythological characteristics.
Lo*nnrot's work, particularly the publication of Kalevala, had an immerse effect on the self-awareness and national feeling of the Finns, who had been dominated by the Swedes from 1155 to 1809 and then (after a war between Sweden and Russia, which Sweden lost) by the Russians from 1809 to 1917, when Finland finally obtained independence.
Lo*nnrot's service to world literature in salvaging the ancient heritage from the destruction can be compared with that rendered by the famous resurrector of the Old Tamil Cankam literature, Uu.

 Severské listy − Elias Lönnrot a Kalevala
Elias Lonnrot (1802-1884) se narodil v typické starofinské venkovské rodině, kde píseň patřila k všednímu dni jako rosa ke květu.
Elias se od mládí naučil vážit si darů země a tato úcta k základním pozemským hodnotám se stala později jedním z vůdčích motivů Kalevaly.
K radě přátel, aby studoval raději něco užitečného, přidává Lonnrot další praktickou rozvahu: služba praktického lékaře někde v terénu mu zajistí stálý styk s lidmi a neporušenou přírodou a navíc mu umožní pokračovat v poutích za folklórem.

Fortunately, Elias Lonnrot, the main collector, and the man responsible for this literary version, was also engaged in laying the foundations of the scientific study of folk traditions, and the collections he made or sponsored formed the basis of a major archive, the publication of which was only recently completed.
Lonnrot's prose summaries of each *runo* (for this purpose, canto) are not translated; Magoun used them as "arguments" (in the manner of Milton's prose summaries for each book of "Paradise Lost").
Bosley's Introduction is excellent, and establishes the literary and cultural background of Lonnrot's work and the nature of the folk-poetry he collected, and makes useful observations about the structure of the completed epic.

He could not read or write music, but notated the runos he heard by numbering the strings of his kantele, the five-stringed zither that is the national musical instrument of Finland.
Lonnrot then organized the material into a unified body of poetry, as Homer had with the "Iliad" and the "Odyssey." Lonnrot selected the best variants of each story and assembled them into a coherent whole, writing his own connective passages where necessary and imposing his own timeline to create a logically flowing chain of events.
Lonnrot published an expanded "New Kalevala" in 1849, but it would be years before any of it was set to music.

It was the Kalevala that initiated the process leading to the foundation of Finnish identity during the nineteenth century and was, therefore, one of the crucial factors in the formation of Finland as a new nation in the twentieth century.
Consideration is given to the singers who were Lonnrot's sources and of how the work evolved from Lonnrot's notes to the Old Kalevala to the final form of the epic.
This leads to an analysis of the songs, looking at the three main characters and what they can be thought to represent along with inclusions such as the Kullervo story and Runo 50 concerning Marjatta and her son.

he Kalevala, the national epic of Karelia and Finland, was compiled by the physician, folklorist, and philologist Elias Lonnrot (1802-1884) in the course of twelve research trips in to Karelia (1828- 1844).
ifted with a remarkable memory, Lonnrot collected the songs of unlettered folk singers and wove them into a long narrative poem, centered around the three 'cultural heroes' of Karelian mythology, the sage-and-singer Vainamoinen, the smith Ilmarinen, and the brash eroticist and adventurer Lemminkainen.
he first fruit of Lonnrot's labors, the Old Kalevala, in 32 runos, was issued in 1835; a second, reordered, and expanded version of 50 runos, including the tale of the tragic outsider Kullervo, was brought out in 1849.
