Summary: "Uuden runomittaopin alkeita" by Onni E. Helkiö is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book focuses on the theory and practice of Finnish poetry meter, examining the rhythmic structure and providing insights into the various aspects of Finnish prosody. Helkiö aims to address the shortcomings in the understanding and use of poetic meter, encouraging improvements in the field. In this work, Helkiö meticulously discusses the components of rhythmic structure in Finnish poetry, highlighting issues such as the lack of proper rhythm and the misapplication of poetic feet from foreign languages. He categorizes different types of poetic feet, including trochees, dactyls, and peons, and stresses the importance of aligning them with the natural sound and stress patterns of the Finnish language. Moreover, he argues for a re-evaluation of meter in order to create more harmonious and theoretically sound poetry, ultimately advocating for a deeper understanding of Finnish poetic forms to better reflect the nuances of the language and its lyrical traditions.
