Rethinking National Literatures and the Literary Canon in Scandinavia
Anthology exploring the concept of "The Nordic" and their literary canons, national self-understanding and identity
Valkeapää's Use of Photographs in Beaivi áhčážan
This article examines the photographic material of the Sámi cultural mobilizer Nils-Aslak Valkeapää's Beaivi áhčážan (The Sun, My Father), published in 1988, with theoretical perspectives from anti- and postcolonial studies. The analysis focuses on how Valkeapää's use of photographs involves that the colonial past is examined from the vantage point of the anti-colonial present of the 1980s. Valkeapää's re-contextualization of photographs from eth…
Ethnicity, Cultural Identity and Bordering
This article examines how experiences of internal colonialism may be expressed in literary writing, through an analysis of Bengt Pohjanen's poem Rttipt (Ragheads). The article discusses the poem and its embedding in a Menkieli (Tornedalian Finnish) grammar book, Menkielen kramatiikki The theme explored is the tensions arising between homogenising modernity in a Swedish nation-building context and the particular situation of the Tornedalian Finnis…
An Arctic Melting-Pot
This article examines changes in ideas about how to define European culture and the role of cultural legacies in contemporary ethnic mobilization and region-building in the Swedish Torne Valley. A major point made is that the notions of civilizational constellations and multiple trajectories to modernity are particularly useful in analysing Bengt Pohjanen's contribution. The conclusion presented is that Pohjanen consciously activates the Orthodox…
Särskiljandets logik i en kolonial och en antikolonial diskurs – Nils-Aslak Valkeapääs Beaivi áhčáan
Sarskiljandets logik i en kolonial och en antikolonial diskurs : Nils-Aslak Valkeapaas Beaivi ahcazan
Contemporary Tornedalian Fictions by Ester Cullblom and Annika Korpi
In recent years discussions concerning ethnicity have gained increased importance in projects which question the homogeneity of modernity. This development involves a critique of the effacement of the implications of gender, class, and ethnicity in the production of discourses about the nation and the people. From this theoretical vantage point the article examines the intertwinings of diverse identity factors in contemporary fictions about the S…

Enacting colonised space. Katarina Pirak Sikku and Anders Sunna
During 2014 the Swedish city of Umeå was a European Capital of Culture, with the signature Umeå2014. In Umeå’s application there was a strong focus upon the Sámi and the fact that Umeå is situated in Sápmi. Elements from Sámi culture were used in the programme and in the marketing of Umeå as a cultural capital. Bildmuseet, a museum for contemporary visual art and a part of Umeå University, was one of the institutions that contributed to the progr…
