Summary "Raatimiehen tytär" by Evald Ferdinand Jahnsson is a historical-romantic drama written in the late 19th century. This play unfolds through three acts and is set in the early 16th century, exploring themes of love, honor, and conflict amid the historical backdrop of war between Danes and Swedes. The central characters include Ebba, the daughter of a town councilor, her suitor Sven, and the rival Rolf Jute, whose complex relationships are shadowed by political tensions. The opening of the play introduces a pastoral setting near Turku during a peaceful summer day, where Antero Suurpää, a council member, and other townsfolk discuss the possibility of peace with the Danes. Amid their jovial preparations for a meal, the atmosphere shifts dramatically when news of the Danes' renewed aggressions reaches them, stirring tensions and fears of violence. As Ebba navigates her own feelings and relationships, especially amid the possibility of conflict involving Rolf Jute, the dynamics between love, loyalty, and betrayal begin to take shape, setting the stage for the ensuing drama.
