In finnish Moose is Hirvi (alces alces), which has natural habitat in the northern europe. Elk is "canadian moose" in finnish (Cervus canadensis) which is not part of the flora and fauna expect on supermarket's frozen section.

-It is plain peasant clothing for women. Married women used to cover their hair after marriage. -Lemminkäinen is a finnish hero/anti-hero in old pagan oral tales that were gathered in 19th century and turned into epic of Kalevala. You can't tell it from english version but they are quite complex poems that were basically sung. Some are creation myths, some are character driven, others are just plain spells. Their age varies and some oldest aspects must be from neolithic, while others are clearly from late middle ages. -I think catholic church was more internested to stop eastern orthodox gaining foothold in the baltic region than teaching the common people. Most of education about catechisms came from travelling monks rather than priests. There is quite clear division line in the 19th century when these poems were finally gathered in written form. The lutheran (reformed) Finland had lost most of their tales, while from orthodox church region still had many poem singers practising their craft in the open. -Urbanism, the hierarchical class structure (realms of the estate), state religion, etc. are quite variable pheonomena that influence each others. Cities were formed by kings and nobles estates (if they had that right from the king), peasants had only certain days of year to sell their products in these cities that were licensed by the upper class. It is a great act of balance to make things work or fall apart. -The most fascinating art work from Babylon is the two-headed eagle that many noble familys took as their crests. It is very internesting symbol of power since eagle hatchlings cannibalize each other, so double-headed eagle would kill itself from natural instinct. Ancient people observed nature constantly, so they must have known that there is only one hatchling in the eagles nest even though they lay many eggs. Did they know that empires are built to self-destruct?

@@Finnishpeasant I've thought that empires were doing that . Almost to carry forth their intentions from the past when they couldn't continue it in their original home land. I hadn't thought of the double headed eagle that way but it makes sense. Have you seen the Lion with the bee in his mouth?

Poland was a medieval kingdom with native nobles that had saturated itself in europen culture for centuries. It makes a huge difference for nation building. Basically, all finnish nobility was foreign born or they adopted the swedish language if they rose to the top echelon of society. It is kind of like in czech where german speaking nobles ended up falling from windows very easily.

You insult me with names like Tate/Trump/Libertarian and you claim you respectfully disagree? Metal music does not have life spirit, it is excactly infertile lite-nihilisms of Nietzsche. That is literally a fairy tale to see it having some sort of harbour of new conservative life.

OK, but you did good work, Joe.

@@Finnishpeasant The public at large can not define the right and the actors prefer that the worlds view of the right remain distorted. Create art? Art is at the root of the problem. The right can not inspire war? The right does not inspire or conspire.

@@Finnishpeasant Finland's reaction to the USSR in 1939 was the left?

​@@joemccarthy4270 You lost me

@@Finnishpeasant I asked a question , you seem easily lost.

Glory is one thing, struggle is another. It is the glorification of the common mans struggle that builds nationhood and preserves them. War can be very minor detail for a peasant compared to the nature but necessary... Without this spiritual nationhood, my culture would be defenseless and wiped out under the soviet dictatorship.

For painters, art school is quite "new" concept in history. It is only high skilled craft work. Technically, it does not need any institution. Same goes for sculpting. It is quite amazing how retired men from trade jobs and with working class background, can do with their free time when they put their time in it. I saw quite amazing chainsaw sculpting from wood during this summer. It was not made by some art school kids who barely have strenght to lift a chainsaw.

@@Finnishpeasant so so, most of painters in that time were educated in art schools in some prestige places. I know Croatian top artists like Vlaho Bukovac, Čikoš Sesija, Otton Iveković, Ferdo Quiquerez etc were all prodigies of top fine arts schools of time like Vienna, Paris, Munchen, Venice, other schools in Italy and such. Lower level artists were all educated by Church. I dont think you can do fine art without education. But i agree about sculpting it is bit different from painting at that time kt was done in trade schools.

When you dont have education you will end up with something like naive art where art looks like it is made by grade schooler.

​@@Finnishpeasant chainsaw sculptures -_- are you serious? You yap on about right wing art and then go and say "yeah the chainsaw sculptures are cool" implying they are sufficient "art" for you. To have the high art you have to study for a decade in school or under a master, or two decades alone. Because the craftwork has a skill cap or skill usefulness bell curve, craftsmen can create great working art, kitsch art but high art from a craftsmen is once in a blue moon. You want great high art but are ignorant of how, how long, how costly, at what skill point and in what environment it has to be made. "Make me fine right wing art now! I don't care about any factors that make it hard, system is evil and future bleak? To make fine right wing art you don't need skill and hope, just make it" And the condescending assumption that there's non, it just doesn't go mainstream, artist painting photorealistic soliders might be skilled and spirtually motivated but it doesn't sell, porn sells, abstraction sells, fantasy sells when was the last time you purchased right wing artist's painting, or at least liked it on Facebook? If you are like the rest of us don't complain. Left wing art is getting shadowy cabbal of sweet baby inc like companies, Soroses and Schwabes funding, government and corporate support while right wing is left alone in the gutter. There are no king paying for paintings to the glory of the nation, or at least greek institutions or millionaires making financially sure that Cleopatra has right skin color. You're a goofball.

@@engineer1941 But most of the golden age artist in Finland received their education through apprenticeship training especially the ones from peasant class. The painters like Edelfeldt studied history and languages in university instead of "art". I have met many of these "liberal" students in my lifetime and even after receiving their degree. They have never read a single philosophical book or have even rudementary knowledge about history. I would say today, it is even easier to study these "humanistic" studies without institution.

Good court politics can carry a long way. The painter (Edelfeldt) was also in good terms with Romanov family but at the same time pulled Finland away from their hands.

Defeatist attitude

@@SwedishEmpire1700 Do you really think complaining ruins art?

Oppression can't erase creativity. Keep painting and maybe some generation will see your lost works in the future.

@@Finnishpeasant literally the entire bronze age, and Egyptian art works disagree, hell Byzantine works of art are still looked up to, to this day. commissioned by what today's historians would call "Tyrants"

@@Finnishpeasant the best works of art, the longest lasting ones is the art commissioned by a single person with a vision, it's not always good and it's definitely not the artist doing the hard labor with the vision and want, but regardless, I got more meaning looking at god damn Sumerian clay figures than modern neo liberial art.

@@SU_Plata OK, as a tyrant. I command you to work. Make something nice and don't expect to be paid.

@@Finnishpeasant you have no army, no will, and no vision, to command anything of me, worst, you have no ideas to win me over with, we live in a neoliberal world, right? that's why art has taken a steep decline after the world wars

@@jimbomcbob7849 The title is ironic. It is the same social media text that woke people use to make their silly arguments. Like the word dawg, which is also not a correct way to spell dog but it conveys a different message to the word.

@@Finnishpeasant I'm trying to not be a nihilist about it. I was trying to say that the art that will be needed might need to be more abstract and higher to counter the current situation of the world.

@@CptTexas1 I made that comment about the last statement, where soldiers aren't fighting for the people. That is not true, at least in the case of my cultural sphere.

I don't understand what you are referring to? You seem to reply to an argument that I did not make.

@Finnishpeasant I mean that right wing artist do exist and they make art, that's all, that art may be not explicitly right wing, but it is still art

@@Hog_enjoyer My argument is more about that there is no "high" art anymore and how nationalists created the whole golden age of art at the turn of 19th century.

I would make an argument that post-modernity has already soaked the pillars of right wing ideology and it is just as uselles in creating art as the modern left. There is desire for money, video games and pornography from young males that seem to carry the flags of right currently.

It seems ike youtube automatically made you comment hidden because of a curse word?

You are one of the few apperantly

FInally, someone who got the point. I would label all those terms under the index of spirituality.

most persons would agree that most every progressive movement and ideal are considered "leftism" ... and most persons would agree that most every conservative movement is considered "rightism" ... most persons would agree that progressive is the desire to "change the order of things" while conservative is the desire "to maintain the order of things"... and thus the two movement will clash... thus the right will tend to glorify the past and the left will glorify the future... (and thus it creates conflicts between the older generation against the younger generation)... the solution is to create forums and rational discussion for collaborations to define the problem, devise and implement a solution to the problem and reflect on the result of the solution... in my opinion, the overall "core" issue is the transfer of power/authority/ leadership/culture from one generation to the next generation ... this issue is not new and is part of human nature... a culture/people/nation and a person can rise above their animal primal nature with the gifts which God has given us to examine, analyze, with intellect and reason to make proper decisions and actions... but alas, there are so many variables to the problem/issues that conflict continually occurs and pain and suffering occurs because any solution can not encompass every problem and thus some person will be harmed by implementing change or by not implementing change... in the end there will always be "winners" and "losers"... a good society tries to eliminate/minimize the losses but that means minimizing the gains as well and thus society loses the potential for greatness and will die... each new generation will face this issue as eventually they become the old generation... it is the "clash of the gods"... and "turtles all the way down"

Even worse, theyve become the last man. Heroism? No thats bad, no more brother wars Exploration? But the worlds already explored best stay home Sacrifice? He hasnt sacrificed a moment of his life. Organize? Youre a fed There exist the lowest form of life

@@jaycee1111111 And what am I supposed to see from the other side of the cavity?

I am not a dictionary

"right" and "left" are basically very modern class systems.

I punched up a whole less-intelligent version of what you said here before I saw this. Agreed, chuds would kill any good artistic expression with their angry purity spirals and intolerance for anything different. The stuff they like is very derivative; stray from the norm, and you are a gay liberal. Watching them completely fail to get over a single social issue stumbling block to get to something good at the heart of a work is always comical.

​​​​​@@Finnishpeasant because in the past technology and progress didn't seem to lead to hellish abominations so everyone was progressive, yet not formally defined left was for detachment from the past while right for synergy between past and progress. Now progress is in 90% of cases evil, so to be right wing is to be anti-progress or for heavily restricted one, and that's good. Going to space might end up being the good progress and the imaginative right is more interested in it than the earthly left, and we will see a lot of right wing space art, just hope it won't be AI crypto NFT techbro art.

@@Finnishpeasant Right = formerly yeomen, today homeowners and petit bourgeoisie Left = formerly serfs and crofters, today apartment rentees and proletariat?

@@AttilaKattila Someways yes, but artisans and merchants had huge differences in wealth in their own estate. Peasants who consisted 98% of feudal society had also very different paths in their own class because patrilineality could clash with land laws at some point or the land could be all together seized by kings donation to the nobles.

Thank you for leaving a comment. I never know if anyone gets anything from these videos in the end.

There are basically only two other pages completed and rest of them are only illustrations: fi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suur-Kalevala

And specifically, to buy reproductions

Thank you for your comment. I don't like Tolkien that much, so it would be dishonest for me to use him to lure people in.

@@Finnishpeasant You must remain true to yourself. Do you have any insight why the Kalavela is so very different (at least in English translation) from Norse or Germanic sagas?

@@4outof5dentistsagree Good question. The main difference is the baltic origin for the tales that have mixed with many eastern hunter gatherer beliefs. Baltic was the last bastions of paganism in europe. The oral story telling has had time "cook" little bit longer. It is also almost impossible to translate Kalevalian poetry to english. I like the english version of Kalevala but it id very different to the original work. Kalevalian poems can only rhyme in strict rules so that they can be memorized. The words can have multiple meanings that can be translated to english. It is a very hard read for even a native finnish speaker.
