Elias Lönnrot published the Old Kalevalas in 1835. As he says in his foreword, he wanted to get the runes in print although he felt "they were still lacking a great deal" because he was worried they might remain incomplete forever. As soon as it was published, the book became emblem for Finnish literature that was still in its infancy. Near Fine. Item #3203
