Record #156452:

Changing narratives about Sami folklore / Stein R. Mathisen.

Title: Changing narratives about Sami folklore / Stein R. Mathisen.
Author(s): Mathisen, Stein R.
Date: 2000.
Publisher: Turku, Finland: Nordic Network of Folklore
In: Sami Folkloristics. (2000.),
Abstract: Reviews research in Norway, starting with Friis, Qvigstad (who both felt Saami was evolutionarily doomed) and Sandberg. Even if Saami culture was not seen as dying, these scholars tended to assume that Saami were pupils of Norwegians or Kven. Even Moe believed this. Others believed in devolution - Saami culture as lingering relic of better days. Paine in 1980s saw narratives as dealing with current problems. New views continue from Paine's idea or see Saami copying Norwegians' or Finns' use of folklore material to form national identity, particularly since Saami Parliament was founded. Gaski takes mixed line. Research history is used by Minde to re-order understanding of Saami folklore's content and present role.
