Translated by Antti Räty
A historical novel written in the mid-19th century. The book centers on the legendary figure Wilhelm Tell and his role in the struggle for Swiss independence from oppressive rulers. Through themes of liberty, resistance, and heroism, it encapsulates the spirit of a nation fighting for its freedom. The opening of the text establishes the historical context of the story, set in the late 13th century during a time when the Austrian Habsburgs exerted oppressive control over Switzerland. We are introduced to key characters such as Werner Stauffacher and Melhtal, who begin to plot their rebellion against their tyrannical rulers. The narrative portrays their conversations emphasizing their desire for freedom and the awakening of their revolutionary spirit, culminating in alliances among the Swiss communities. As conflict arises with powerful figures like Hermann Gessler, the motivations for resistance against authority are powerfully set in motion, foreshadowing significant events that will unfold in the quest for liberation.
