What a maritime history! The uses of maritime history in summer festivals in southern Norway
2009
This is a preprint of an article whose final and definitive form has been published in the Journal of Tourism History 2009 copyright Taylor & Francis. Article available at InformaWorld: http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/17551820902823259 This paper focuses on the growth of cultural heritage tourism in southern Norway, with a particular focus on maritime history presented at summer festivals during recent years. I will be using newly collected empirical data gathered from two festivals: Kjæmpestaden (Giant Town) in Arendal and Kapernatten (Privateer Night) in Farsund. In 2006 and 2007, both festivals included grand outdoor plays based on the history of the Napoleonic Wars (1807–1814). Since Tordensk…
The Sephardim of North Morocco, Zionism and Illegal Emigration to Israel Through the Spanish Cities of Ceuta and Melilla
2020
This text looks at the fluid intersection in the emergence and development of Zionism and the later Zionist-promoted emigration of Moroccan Jews to Israel from what was the Spanish Protectorate zone in Morocco and the Spanish enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla in the north of Sherifian state. This process has received less attention from scholars than similar events in the French zone. However, it has some particularities that merit specific attention. From the early years of contact between North Moroccan Jews and European Zionism, the strong cultural identity of the Sephardim in the region and the mobilization of a Spanish approach informed by philo-Sephardism marked an important difference wi…
Others among Others: Latvians’ View of Members of Ethnographic Shows
2020
Abstract In the second half of the nineteenth century, Latvians, like several other non-dominant nations that were part of large European empires, actively argued for their status as a nation and fought for the right to be equal partners in economy and politics and for the recognition of their culture. The process of constructing an ethnic identity involves not only inclusion, but also the formation of boundaries and exclusion, defining characteristics in the public space that separate the group Us from Others, that is, other members of society as well as complete strangers. Groups offering ethnographic and freak shows stopped by the Russian imperial city of Riga with guest performances, ar…
Reframing belonging : affective localism and the early fiction of Reino Rinne
2017
ABSTRACTThe early fiction of a novelist and journalist born in the north of Finland, Reino Rinne (1913–2002), is illustrative of the post-war interest in a redefinition of cultural belonging. The aim of this article is to offer a reading of Rinne’s works that throws light on the way they exemplify a post-war articulation of affective localism. What is especially characteristic of the affective localism produced in Rinne’s early fiction is the deployment of certain narrative elements, realism as an aesthetic regime, tropes of spatial belonging and historical myths that are endowed with affective charge. A comparison between Rinne's first novel Tunturit hymyilevat. Kuvaus Lapista 1900-luvun a…
‘Where the F… is Vuotso?’ : heritage of Second World War forced movement and destruction in a Sámi reindeer herding community in Finnish Lapland
2017
In this paper we discuss the heritage of the WWII evacuation and the so-called ‘burning of Lapland’ within a Sámi reindeer herding community, and assess how these wartime experiences have moulded, and continue to mould, the ways people memorialise and engage with the WWII material remains. Our focus is on the village of Vuotso, which is home to the southernmost Sámi community in Finland. The Nazi German troops established a large military base there in 1941, and the Germans and the villagers lived as close neighbours for several years. In 1944 the villagers were evacuated before the outbreak of the Finno-German ‘Lapland War’ of 1944–1945, in which the German troops annihilated their militar…
La revendication d'un terroir viticole : la Côte-de-Beaune à la fin du XVIIIe siècle
2011
International audience; L'habitude d'associer précisément le vin à son lieu de production, à son « climat », opération définissant à l'heure actuelle le terroir viticole bourguignon, apparut au cours du xviii e siècle. L'histoire de la règlementation commerciale du « vin de Beaune » depuis le Moyen Âge laisse entrevoir quelques raisons profondes de ce processus essentiel de formalisation d'un terroir, lequel traduit l'évolution des contraintes socio-économiques, entre droits collectifs et libéralisation du commerce. Le lieu en effet, inutile aux yeux des législateurs dans la définition du vin tant que les modalités de règlements purent se limiter au cadre strict dessiné par les privilèges d…

The influence of western culture in the care of the body relative to aesthetics, physical activity and food
2012
El cuerpo forma parte de la identidad personal de cada individuo, al igual que ella cambia a lo largo de la vida por lo que en cada etapa se percibe de diferente manera y con él se expresa la propia identidad. El cuerpo es algo más que un conjunto de células diferenciadas y en todas las sociedades se tiene en alta estima por lo que los cuidados corporales representan a cada cultura. Por lo tanto, nos planteamos cómo la cultura occidental condiciona los cuidados del cuerpo relativos a la estética, la actividad física y la alimentación. Dichos cuidados varían entre las poblaciones según los valores que en ellas se asocian con la imagen corporal, de la misma manera, también varían dentro de la…
