Talk:Kalevipoeg

Untitled 1
"Son of Kalev" or "Pharaoh, son of the Day", (it is not allowed to mention his name!) is the epic national poem of Estonia.

An ancient hero of the people of the Ironforest (Landpeople, most terrifying nationality; ancient Vikings; Germans named them Estonians in the 13th century).

Censored? Why?
"The first version of Kalevipoeg (1853; 13,817 verses) could not be printed due to censorship." -- For those of us not familar with Estonian literary history, could we please add some clarification on just why the poem was censored? Thanks. -- 201.19.77.39 13:50, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
 * I don't know the details, off the top of my head, but the censor would have been Russian Empire's one, as Estonian territories were then part of Russian Empire. Main possible causes are that they might have been concerned about nationalism in it, or they might have considered certain passages of it too sexual. ΔιγυρενΕμπροσ! 14:17, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

Kalevipoeg or Kalevide
I think Klevipoeg must be Kalevipoeg and this name Kalevide is wrong! Why Kalevide?--85.253.60.8 (talk) 08:58, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
