Prins Otto af Danmark og hans samtid. Finnish

"Tanskan prinssi Otto" by Bernhard Severin Ingemann is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The book is set in a tumultuous period during the 14th century and revolves around the themes of loyalty, national identity, and the struggles of the Danish people amidst external threats and political turmoil. The main characters include a young squire and an elderly servant, who navigate the complexities of their times while grappling with issues of allegiance and integrity. At the start of the novel, a calm summer evening follows a significant religious celebration in 1333, where a group of poor townsfolk kneel in prayer before a statue of Saint Knut, seeking divine protection from the looming threat of German invaders. The scene shifts to the arrival of two travelers: a young squire and an older servant, who find themselves in an ominous situation as they confront a band of raucous German soldiers. Tension escalates as skirmishes break out, revealing the challenges the characters face—not just from external forces but also within their own ranks as they discuss issues of loyalty and betrayal, reflecting on the political landscape of Denmark and the implications it has on their identities.
