Papin Perhe; Hän on Sysmästä; Spiritistinen Istunto is a four-act play by Finnish author Minna Canth, first published in 1891. Set in the Valtari household, the play examines familial relationships, societal expectations, and personal aspirations, particularly through the character of Maiju, who dreams of becoming an actress. The narrative highlights the tension between the younger generation's desires and the traditional values upheld by their parents, reflecting the struggles for autonomy and self-expression in late 19th-century Finland.
