Zacharias Topelius |
 | | Zacharias Topelius was born in a modest house at Kuddnäs, in the province of Ostrobothnia - also Johan Vilhelm Snellman and J.L. Runeberg. |
| | Its only noteworthy rival in the public debate of contemporary topics was J.V. Snellman's Saima (1844-1846), which often attacked Topelius's views. |
| | Especially Topelius's vision of one nation with two languages led him to a collision course with Snellman (1806-1881), a Hegelian philosopher and statesman, who was a central figure in the national awakening. |
