about

The tradition of the Kalevala can be heard in the selection of texts. Eino Leino (1878–1926) is the most important poet, who got inspiration from the national epos, and he is the most remarkable developer of this legacy. He wrote about these thematics in several poems and plays. He also renovated the slow and tautological Kalevala meter. He showed, that with this meter it is possible to express all kinds of modern themes in philosophy, religion and politics. In this entity is included a fragment of the legend "Blue Cross" taken from the latter edition of the two collections of poems called Helkavirsiä (1916; hard to translate). It comes from Leino's theosophic period. He is escaping to a transcendental spirit during the deep social and political depression of WWI, before the revolutions in 1917–19. In this context the whole transforms into a magical chant, a miracle of word which is here performed by the Helsinki based rapper and spoken word artist Matti P.
