description "When Aleksis Kivi’s (1834–1872) Finnish tragedy Karkurit (‘The Escapees’) was originally published in 1867 it was considered better than his two former plays, the Kalevalaic tragedy Kullervo (1864) and the comedy Nummisuutarit (‘Heath Cobblers’, 1864). Soon these encouraging views, however, turned completely opposite. Dismissing attitudes towards Kivi’s play were dominant until the 1960s when new theatre productions made its artistic merits worthy of consideration again. The critical edition of Karkurit gives a new and more versatile image of Aleksis Kivi as a playwright and helps to understand his tragedy in the light of the changing artistic ideals of different periods and generations. The edition contains a scholarly edited and richly annotated text of the tragedy’s first edition. Expert introductions by leading authorities illuminate the multidimensional dramaturgy of the play and reflect its relation to the European drama traditions and the socio-historical context of 19th-century Finland. In addition, the introductory articles analyse Kivi’s pioneering blank verse dialogues and discuss how Karkurit was published and performed from the 19th century up to the present day. The appendices include, among others, versatile text-critical apparatuses, an overview of the first Swedish dramatization of the tragedy (1872) and an earlier version of the play, an excerpt that was originally published in a magazine one year prior to the first edition of the drama. Edith – Critical Editions of Finnish Literature Edith editions are based on scholarly analysis of manuscripts, first editions and other historical sources. They reflect and clarify Finnish literary culture for scholars, teachers and other readers interested in literature. "

" "Aleksis Kiven (1834 1872) viisinäytöksistä murhenäytelmää Karkurit (1867) pidettiin sen ilmestymisen aikoihin onnistuneempana kuin kirjailijan edeltäviä näytelmiä Nummisuutarit ja Kullervo. Myöhemmin arviot näytelmästä muuttuivat jyrkän päinvastaisiksi ja teosta kutsuttiin muun muassa literääriseksi aivokummitukseksi . Vasta 1960- ja 1970-lukujen onnistuneet teatteritoteutukset avasivat näytelmän ansioita uudelleen. Näytelmätekstin ja kommentaarien lisäksi Karkurien kriittinen editio tarjoaa uutta tietoa näytelmän monitasoisesta dramaturgiasta sekä teoksen julkaisu- ja teatterihistoriasta. Lisäksi editiossa valaistaan näytelmän suhteita eurooppalaiseen draamaperinteeseen, taustoitetaan sääty-yhteiskunnan murrosta 1800-luvun Suomessa sekä analysoidaan Kiven tapoja käyttää silosäemittaa näytelmässään. Editioon sisältyy Kirjallisessa Kuukauslehdessä 1866 julkaistu Karkurien katkelma sekä katsaukset teoksen ensimmäisiin ruotsin- ja suomenkielisiin näyttämösovituksiin." 2021-02-10T12:58:18Z 2018-01-08 23:55 2017-12-01 23:55:55 2018-01-08 00:00:00 2020-04-01T13:16:57Z 2017 book 641486 OCN: 1030821724 0355-1768 http://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/30887 9789522228611;9789522228710 https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/39155 fin Suomalaisen Kirjallisuuden Seuran Toimituksia open access image/jpeg image/jpeg image/jpeg image/jpeg Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/30887/1/641486.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/30887/1/641486.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/30887/1/641486.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/30887/1/641486.pdf Finnish Literature Society / SKS 10.21435/skst.1428 10.21435/skst.1428 8ceefe60-b6e9-4502-8498-ff110bb0f062 Kirjastokonsortio Aleksandria and SKS 9789522228611;9789522228710 326 Helsinki open access
