To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" During these Attic nights, " he writes, "one could become acquainted with Runeberg's quiet hu- mour, Snellman's merciless logic, Nervander's sar- casms, Nordstrom's sallies, sharp as needles, " He was thus brought up in the great traditions of the National movement, and himself handed on the torch received from his friends. He may indeed be re- garded as the great popularizer of the movement. With less original force than several of his prede- cessors, he had more power than they to bring the... meaning of it into the homes of unlearned and sim- ple men. And he did so through his genius for sym- pathizing and getting on with children. He showed the child what Finland meant, what it really was to be a child, and later, a citizen of his beloved country. This seed planted in the minds of children flowered in them when they came to years of maturity- flowered in a patriotism which aimed at being pre- pared not merely to die well but to live well for their country. He compiled a reader for the Elementary Schools entitled "The Book of Our Land, " which is LANDMARKS OF FINNISH LITERATURE 169 a model of what such a book should be, and both in- spires and instructs every child.
