| Summary | "Jeftan tytär: Yksinäytöksinen runoelma" by Johannes Linnankoski is a one-act poetic drama written in the early 20th century. This work explores themes of sacrifice, family, and societal expectations, revolving around the biblical character Jefta and his daughter, Hagar. The narrative is heavily influenced by the historical and cultural context of ancient Israel. The plot centers on Jefta, a heroic figure in Israel, who has vowed to sacrifice the first thing that greets him upon his victorious return from battle. This turns tragic when his only daughter, Hagar, comes out to greet him, leading to a poignant exploration of love, duty, and the horrors of sacrifice. Throughout the play, Hagar expresses her willingness to accept her fate in service of her father's honor and the well-being of Israel, evoking deep emotional responses from the audience. Ultimately, her character embodies both the pain of personal loss and the nobility of self-sacrifice, highlighting the conflict between individual desires and communal obligations.
