Ei ole aikaa: Komedia kolmessa näytöksessä by Ludvig Holberg

"Ei ole aikaa: Komedia kolmessa näytöksessä" by Ludvig Holberg is a comedic play written in the late 17th century. The play revolves around the chaotic life of Bielgeschrey, a character overwhelmed with tasks who struggles to find time for both his professional duties and his daughter's romantic entanglements. It humorously explores themes of procrastination, social obligations, and romantic misunderstandings. At the start of the play, we are introduced to Bielgeschrey and his bustling household, filled with busy servants who are often more of a hindrance than a help. The opening scenes establish Bielgeschrey’s character as a harried man constantly interrupted by various tasks, while the subplots involve his daughter Leonora's romantic interest in Leander and the tension created by Bielgeschrey’s plans to marry her off to another suitor, the less desirable puukhollari. The atmosphere is lively as the multiple characters express their grievances about time and duties, setting the stage for comedic misunderstandings and convoluted plans that are likely to unfold throughout the play.
