Päivitettyä perinnettä : saamelaisen nykyrunouden saamelaiskuvastoja

2017

This doctoral dissertation investigates the imagery of Sáminess in contemporary Sámi poetry. The research material of the study consists of poetry collections published in North Sámi and Norwegian by eight Sámi authors: Inger-Mari Aikio (previously Aikio-Arianaick), Inga Ravna Eira, Rawdna Carita Eira, Irene Larsen, Rauni Magga Lukkari, Hege Siri, Nils- Aslak Valkeapää, and Ellen Marie Vars. The emphasis is on poetry published at the turn of the 2010s. The study examines how Sáminess has been depicted and constructed in poetry from the 1980s onwards. The four original research articles ask how images traditionally connected to Sáminess and indigenousness are used in contemporary poems and h…

Ses racines et son développement de 1820 à 1920

2017

The aim of the study is to examine the Saami book history in the context of Finland in order to understand its evolution from 1820 to 1920. The study focuses on books and other printed materials in Saami language(s) (or idioms) and it looks into archival documents to throw light on their intellectual history. The Saami book history has unfolded slowly, and occasionally, it has appeared to fall into decline. The present study follows the French school of book history that uses multidisciplinary methods to examine books as a reflection of ideology in the context of a given culture at a given time. Such an approach allows us to see how a minority can express itself, what possibilities there ar…

Uudelleen kolonisoitu pohjoinen : jälkikoloniaalinen luenta saamelaisista Hannele Pokan romaanissa Piritta

2010

Tutkielmassani tarkastelen saamelaiskuvaa ja jälkikoloniaalisia oireita Hannele Pokan romaanissa Piritta. Tarkoituksenani on selvittää millaisen kuvan teos muodostaa saamelaisista, heidän kulttuuristaan sekä asuinalueestaan ja millaisin keinoin. Tutkielman teoreettinen tausta pohjautuu jälkikoloniaaliseen tutkimukseen sekä toiseuden ja erilaisuuden käsitteisiin saamelaistutkimuksessa. Tutkielman keskeisin ajatus on selkeästi nähtävien ja ”luonnollistuneiden” kolonialismin jälkeisten oireiden esiin nostaminen ja tarkastelu sekä mahdollistaa myös muutos. Edward W. Saidin orientalismilla on tutkielmassani keskeinen asema, mutta sovellan käsitettä Suomen sisäisesti tapahtuvaan eriarvoistamiseen…

Suomen ortodoksisen kirkon jäsenistön alkuperäiskansa: kolttasaamelaiset

2018

Suomessa on noin 9 000 saamelaista, joiden kotiseutualue kattaa Enontekiön, Inarin ja Utsjoen kunnat sekä Sodankylän pohjoisosan. Yli puolet saamelaisista asuu kotiseutualueensa ulkopuolella. Noin kolmasosa saamelaisista puhuu jotakin saamen kieltä.1 Kolttasaamelaiset ovat yksi kolmesta Suomen saamelaisryhmästä, joiden asema alkuperäiskansana tunnustetaan Suomen perustuslaissa. Tuoreen arvion mukaan kolttasaamelaisia on noin 600.2 Kolttien historia, kulttuuri ja uskonto poikkeavat muista Suomen saamelaisista. Saamelaisina ja ortodokseina he ovat myös vähemmistö vähemmistön sisällä. Tarkastelen tässä katsauksessa kolttasaamelaisten asemaa suomalaisena alkuperäiskansana ja vähemmistöryhmänä S…

The Saami languages and Finnish language legislation : a short historical overview

2017

Finland’s political, social and cultural conditions were transformed after its handover from Sweden to Russia in 1809. Emperor Alexander 1st strongly supported the majority language, Finnish, which had not previously enjoyed official status. The official language had long been Swedish, although some authorities did try from time to time to support the use of the vernacular, such as in elementary education and in the translation of some legislation. The 19th century was marked by increasing nationalism in Finland, with the country seeking to strengthen its autonomous status despite several clampdowns. As has often been observed, the Finnish nation, which can be characterised as an “imagined …

Saamelaislapset kirjailijoina : multimodaaliset tekstikäytänteet monikielisissä saamen luokissa

2012

This article examines children’s multimodal literacy practices in an indigenous Sámi language classroom in Northern Finland, with a speci$ c focus on multimodal picture books designed by the pupils. The position of the Sámi languages in people’s linguistic repertoires has changed dramatically during the past 60 years as they have turned into endangered languages with only few speakers. Consequently, there is very little printed material available and therefore few established literacy practices. By using the term literacy practices we mean here both the text that is produced as well as the values and attitudes rooted in the culture and histories of communities. The data consist of picture b…

Places of Belonging, Places of Detachment:

2022

This chapter contributes to the ongoing discussion about rural belonging by considering the role of historical consciousness (Rüsen, 2004) in the process of belonging in a place. The chapter suggests that young people’s temporal orientation in relation to local culture and history plays a significant role in their commitment to rural communities. The analysis draws on qualitative longitudinal data from Finnish girls, aged 16–19, from two sparsely populated regions (Central Finland and the Northern Finnish Sámi homeland). The chapter shows how multiple strands of commitment tie rural young people to their local surroundings, where the past is present in the landscape and everyday life in a m…
