Järelhüüd

Järelhüüd is an Estonian term that translates to "epilogue" or "afterword" in English. It refers to a concluding section of a written work, such as a book, play, or essay, that provides additional information or reflection after the main narrative has ended. Unlike a simple conclusion, a järelhüüd often offers a perspective on the events that transpired, discusses the long-term consequences, or clarifies certain aspects of the story. It can also be used to address the reader directly, offer a final thought, or even hint at future developments. The purpose of a järelhüüd is to provide closure, deepen understanding, or extend the impact of the work beyond its immediate conclusion. In some contexts, it might also contain author's notes, acknowledgments, or historical background that enriches the reader's experience. It is a deliberate addition designed to enhance the overall engagement with the text.
