Author(s): | Ryd, Yngve. |
Date: | 2002. |
Publisher: | Stockholm: Ordfront förlag |
Language: | Swedish. |
Abstract: | "Snö" is first fundamental documentation of Saami knowledge of snow. Over 300 words on snow and ice are listed, with explanations and photographs. They describe conditions for moving with family and possessions over snow and ice and going on skis. Here are revealed old reindeer herder's amazing eye for detail in snow, his place of work. Book is based on single person's exceptional knowledge: Johan Rassa from Jokkmokk. He lived and worked all his life as reindeer herder around Sarek and Padjelanta, now Lapland National Parks. Ryd interviewed him over many years, writing down and systematising his knowledge, to make solid handbook of snow's nature and culture. Lists are: Saami-Swedish and Swedish-Saami snow vocabularies and themes of chapters - seasons, thickness of snow cover, snowfall, snow's bearing quality, going for skis, snow and wind, winter grazing, melt, ice in running water, etc. - all with page numbers. |
