Summary "Vanha koti: Kolminäytöksinen näytelmä" by Maria Jotuni is a three-act play written in the early 20th century. The narrative unfolds within the walls of the Jynkkä manor, centering around the complex dynamics of the Jynkkä family and their relationships, particularly as they confront the arrival of Teresia, a daughter returning to her childhood home. The play seems to delve into themes of familial duty, generational conflict, and the challenges posed by changing societal values. The opening of this play introduces us to several characters in the Jynkkä household, including Ukko Jynkkä, a merchant with a strong hold on tradition, and his son Iisakki, who is struggling with personal demons. The conversation reveals family tensions, particularly regarding Iisakki’s drinking habits and their expectations for the next generation. Teresia’s imminent return sets off discussions about marriage prospects for Iisakki’s children and the future of their family, contrasting old values with modern realities. As relationships develop and secrets emerge, the characters face the struggle between fulfilling family obligations and pursuing individual desires amidst societal changes.
