Olviretki Schleusingenissä; Leo ja Liina; Alma

"Olviretki Schleusingenissä; Leo ja Liina; Alma" by Aleksis Kivi is a play written in the summer and fall of 1866. Originally titled "Bavaria's Beer Trip," this comedy follows an 8,000-strong Bavarian military unit engaged in wild drinking, woven together with Timoteus's attempts to court the servant girl Mariana. Though now considered an essential part of Kivi's work, the play faced rejection during his lifetime and wasn't published until 1916, over forty years after his death.
