Produced by Tapio Riikonen "Uudesta Maailmasta: Hajanaisia matkakuvia Amerikasta" by Alexandra Gripenberg is a travel narrative written in the late 19th century. The book serves as a collection of observations and reflections on various aspects of American society during a time of significant social change, particularly focusing on women's rights and the aftermath of slavery. Gripenberg recounts her experiences and encounters as she journeys through different American cities such as New York and Washington, highlighting social events, cultural contrasts, and political movements. At the start of the narrative, Gripenberg vividly describes her arrival in New York, where she feels both a sense of familiarity and difference from her native Finland. The bustling city, marked by diverse cultures and the iconic Statue of Liberty, presents a mix of excitement and disillusionment for her. She also details her observations on the vibrant street life, notable city landscapes, and the contrasting experiences of American women involved in the burgeoning movement for women’s rights. The opening sets the stage for Gripenberg’s broader exploration, capturing her initial impressions and framing the issues she plans to address throughout her travels in America.
