Myrkkyä
E-text prepared by Juhani Kärkkäinen and Tapio Riikonen
"Myrkkyä" by Alexander Lange Kielland is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story is likely centered around the experiences of young Marius, who shares a school environment filled with social dynamics, rivalries, and the pursuit of knowledge. The narrative hints at the challenges the students face, particularly regarding their education and personal growth, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of their interactions and internal struggles. The opening of "Myrkkyä" introduces us to a classroom scene where young Marius is depicted as shy and nervous, particularly in the company of his peers. Marius's large, expressive eyes reveal his apprehension as he attempts to navigate his schooling amidst an array of distractions and juvenile pranks. This chaotic classroom environment, led by the somewhat frustrated assistant teacher, serves as a backdrop for the boys’ interactions and highlights their varied attitudes toward education. We witness the tension between Marius's earnestness in learning, especially in Latin, and the indifference of his classmates, foreshadowing the broader themes of ambition, rivalry, and the struggle for acceptance in the competitive school setting.
