For the first time in more than a century and a half, the first prose translation of the Kalevala, prepared by the famous St. Petersburg publisher and writer Eduard Andreevich Granstrem in 1881, is returning to readers. The world-famous Karelian-Finnish epic Kalevala, based on ancient folk songs-runes, is on a par with the Scandinavian Edda, the German Song of the Nibelungs, and Homer's Iliad in terms of significance and beauty. Dozens of masterpieces were created under the influence of this epic, such as The Silmarillion, The Hobbit, and The Lord of the Rings by John Tolkien, who, when inventing the language of the elves, imitated the sound of the Kalevala chants. The distinctive feature of our publication is not only an excellent classical translation, but also the rarest illustrations created by classics of Finnish, European and Russian book graphics, collected for the first time in one edition.
