| Summary | "Miekka ja sana I: Historiallisia kertomuksia" by Kyösti Wilkuna is a historical narrative written in the early 20th century. The book likely consists of various intertwined stories that explore the lives of individuals in a past era, likely during times of conflict and cultural transformation in Finnish history. Through its characters, it likely tackles themes of identity, struggle, and the clash between different cultures, perhaps with a focus on violence and peace. The opening portion introduces a young boy named Korri, who grows up in a world filled with uncertainty and fear driven by the arrival of powerful, unfamiliar people. As he navigates his childhood memories, he witnesses the tension between his family—who belong to a native, likely pagan, tribe—and the encroaching influence of outsiders. The narrative paints a vivid picture of Korri's internal struggle as he becomes captivated by these outsiders, referred to in the text as "the white men," which signifies a broader conflict between his tribal heritage and the impending changes brought by external forces. This section effectively sets up Korri's eventual complexities and challenges as he interacts with both his own culture and the new influences encroaching upon it.
