Summary "Ihmisten tähden : 3-näytöksinen näytelmä" by Martti Wuori is a play written in the late 19th century. The narrative seems to revolve around the lives of the Raunio family and their social interactions in Helsinki, focusing on themes of class, societal expectations, and the pressures of maintaining appearances. The main characters include the asessor Yrjö (Georges) Raunio, his wife Betty, their daughter Ella, and various acquaintances who impact their lives. The opening of the play sets the stage in the Raunio household, revealing a rich yet coldly decorated sala filled with incongruities typical of the late 19th-century bourgeois lifestyle. Ella, the daughter, is introduced along with her music teacher, Neiti Moilanen, as they discuss their lives, the pressures stemming from societal norms, and the family's financial struggles, particularly concerning their recent purchase of an expensive piano. The characters exhibit varying perspectives on life and social status, hinting at underlying tensions within the family regarding their financial predicament and the societal expectations that come with their social stature. This rich interplay of dialogue foreshadows deeper conflicts that will likely unfold throughout the play. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
