Content Summary:

The KALEVALA is the national epic of Finland and its historical significance in national awareness has been immense. The KALEVALA is virtually the only Finnish work that has made its way to become a classic of the world literature. Dr. Chapman Chen is now presenting a part of his Mandarin Chinese and Cantonese version of the story of KULLERVO, a hero but also one of the most controversial persons in the epic, written in a play version by Aleksis Kivi, the Finnish writer best loved by his countrymen and the first classic Finnish novelist.
