Tere, armas õekene!“ Tervis kirjade teemana
This article examines private letters as sources for understanding vernacular conceptions of health and illness from a folkloristic perspective. Drawing on 268 Estonian family letters written between 1912–1935, 1955–1960, and 1964–1979, the study focuses on how health is written about rather than on identifying diseases or treatments. The analysis situates letter writing within broader cultural practices, considering formulaic expressions, everyd…
Esimene teade eestlaste laulmisest – kas ainult
Eesti rahvaluuleteaduse ajaloo üks aabitsatõde on, et esimene seni teadaolev kirjeldus eestlaste laulmisest pärineb Saxo Grammaticuse (ca 1150–1220) teosest „Gesta Danorum”, kus on juttu taanlaste ja rootslaste lahingust eestlaste vastu Ölandi saare juures 1170. aastal (Laugaste 1963: 15–16, 287).1 Anu Saluääre taani keelest tõlgitud versioonis leiab selle lahingupildi järgmises sõnastuses: [Ölandi] saare elanikelt said nad [...]
Success Story or Traumatic Experience? An Attempt to Integrate Trauma Theory with Oral History Research for the Interpretation of First-Person Stories
This article focuses on the following issues: (1) how a narrator describes life under political repression in a retrospective first-person story; (2) the extent to which such a story can be analysed from the perspective of trauma theory; (3) what the use of trauma theory in combination with the methods of folk narrative and oral history research can offer for a more diverse interpretation of such a story. The story selected for observation was wr…
Emad ja tütred eluloos. Kas põlvkondlik konflikt või lepitav läbirääkimine
Ema ja lapse suhe kätkeb pere- ja lähisuhte võimu, mis on aegade ja rahvaste ülene ning eksisteerib nii sõja- kui ka rahuajal. Kultuuritekstidesse on kinnistunud stereotüübid, mis muu hulgas peegeldavad laste ootusi emale. Meenutatagu kas või muinasjuttude kurja võõrasema või regilaulude murevärsse ema surmast: „Eite viidi uksest väĺla, / armud läksid aknast väĺla.”1 Kuid regilauludes [...]
Folkloristika Tartu ülikoolis 1941–1944
The article looks at the teaching of folklore at the University of Tartu during World War II and the German occupation. It covers three academic years, from the autumn of 1941 to the spring of 1944. In previous studies, the period under review has been presented as a disruption: these years were either ignored altogether or described as an aberration in the development of the Soviet university. Yet it is noticeable that, when discussing the contr…

Oskar Looritsa portree Tartu Ülikoolile esitatud aruannete valguses
Oskar Loorits (1900–1961) is an Estonian folklore researcher, who is primarily known as the researcher of the folk tradition and religion of the Livonians, and as the founder and the first director of the Estonian Folklore Archives, founded in 1927. His connections with the University of Tartu have been discussed to a lesser extent. The article is based on the materials of the University of Tartu, mainly personnel records, stored in the National …
Journey in a Life Story and Pilgrimage
This paper will explore the relationship between humans and place mediated in first-person narratives. By focusing on episodes that reveal the change in the ordinary role of the person, we examine how they describe the place and how they perceive the environment in their changed role. Drawing on interviews with a man who has walked a pilgrimage/hiking trail as well as a written life story from the collections of the Estonian Cultural History Arch…
Üks jälg Eesti folkloristikas. Elmar Daniel Päss 120
Folklorist Elmar Daniel Päss (1901–1970) was one of the first researchers who was educated in folklore at the University of Tartu: the Chair of Folklore started work in the autumn of 1919, and Elmar Päss entered university in the autumn of 1922. Already as a student, he attracted the attention of folklore professor Walter Anderson with his study about drinking in Estonian proverbs and folk songs, submitted for a students’ competition in 1924. The…
After the War and Repressions
This article looks at how contemporary life stories reflect the historical-political events that took place in the 1940s, and their impact on the development of family relationships. The focus is on the expression of traumatic experiences caused by these events. Observable events, such as the Second World War, living under a foreign power, political repressions, escape to the West, etc., and their impact on Estonian society have been analysed by …
Jaan Jõgeveri rahvaluuleloengud Tartu ülikoolis aastatel 1909–1911
Jaan Jõgever (1860–1924) oli ajavahemikus 1909–1918 Tartu ülikooli eesti keele lektor. Selles ametis peetud rahvaluuleloengute ligi 1100 lehekülge hõlmavad käsikirjaköited asuvad Tartu ülikooli raamatukogus (TÜR, f 34, s 28, 29, 30, 31, 33). Käsikirjade esimene köide algab loengukursuse sissejuhatusega ja see omakorda pöördumisega „Auustatud herrad!”. Selline algus pakkus kahte üllatusmomenti. Esiteks, tegemist ei ole konspektide [...]
Laulik tekstikesksetes regilaulu-uurimustes
Sügisel aastal 1927 astusid Tartu ülikooli filosoofiateaduskonda kaks noormeest, kes XX sajandi keskel hakkasid olulisel määral kujundama regilaulu-uuringute peateid: üks neist oli Eduard Laugaste, teine Herbert Tampere (RA, EAA.2100.1.7185; RA, EAA.2100.1.15989). Kui senimaani valitses regilaulu-uurimises tekstist lähtuv vaateviis, siis 1930. aastatel lisandunud esitust käsitlev vaade muutis hilisema regilaulu-uurimise sootuks mitmetahulisemaks.…
Rahvaluule õpetamise alguskümnendid Tartu Riiklikus Ülikoolis. Eduard Laugaste 110
The professorship of Estonian and Comparative Folklore was established at the University of Tartu in 1919. Among others, Eduard Laugaste (1909–1994) studied folkloristics here. His first research studies, including his master’s thesis titled “The Song of the Nightingale”, which he defended in 1937, mainly dealt with bird sounds. This topic guided the researcher to use the historic-geographic method, a widespread method in folkloristics at the tim…

Multi-Dimensional Borders in Narration
The article analyses the story of two Estonian soldiers (so-called Finnish Boys, a volunteer Estonian unit in the Finnish army), who escaped the Finnish army during the Continuation War. The reason for their desertion was the fact that the Estonians who were serving in the Finnish army were to be sent back to Estonia, where they would have had to serve in the Nazi German Army. They crossed the Finnish-Swedish border at Tornio/Haaparanta in the au…

Punane regilaulus
In this article the occurrence of the colour term ‘red’ is studied comparatively in the regilaul of two Estonian counties. Earlier studies on colour terms in the Estonian regilaul have shown that colour terms are rarely found in songs. At the same time, they are conspicuous in set phrases, forming formulae, fixed lexical combinations characteristic of the regilaul tradition. The analysis of the songs studied in this article is based on the formul…

Rahvaluule, ajalugu ja "pärimuslik ajalugu"
Folkloristika tekkeajal XIX sajandi keskel ja teisel poolel oli rahvaluule valdavalt seotud kahe aruteluvaldkonnaga: rahvaluule kui r a h v a s i l m e l ä b i nähtud ajalugu ja rahvaluule kui eestikeelne kirjandus. Tänapäeva folkloristikas on esil küsimused folkloori kujunemise dünaamikast muutuvas ühiskonnas, kus märksõnadeks on globaalsus, mitmekultuurilisus, infotehnoloogia, sotsiaalmeedia (vt [...]
Nõukogude aeg elulugudes – ‘katkestus’ või ‘järjepidevus’
The article springs from the discussion on the depiction of Estonian history in autobiographical writing, in which researchers have pointed out either the cultural continuity or cultural rupture. The author deals with ‘rupture’ and ‘continuity’ as interrelated, mutually conditioning phenomena, asking how this relation is disclosed in life writing. For research the author selected autobiographies narrated in the period from 1989 to 1998 from the l…
Pärimuslik ajalugu – arengusuunad ja paralleelid
Narrated history (pärimuslik ajalugu) as an independent research approach started to emerge in Estonian folkloristics in the 1990s. On the one hand, it was expectable, as narrating the past was significantly in the foreground in the 1980s–90s, due to the changes that society was undergoing. On the other hand, it was connected with the general development pattern in the 1970s-80s folkloristics, for example, in the emergence of context-centred folk…

Critical events of the 1940s in Estonian life histories
The article observes how critical times, conditioned by events concurrent with Soviet power and World War II, are currently reflected in life histories of newly independent Estonia. Oral history analysis comprises texts from southern Läänemaa: oral life history interview (2005), written responses to the Estonian National Museum’s questionnaire “The 1949 Deportation, Life as a Deportee” (1999) and a written life history sent to the Estonian Litera…

Discontinuity and Continuity in Representations of 20th Century Estonian History
The theme of this article is how Estonians have described political changes in their autobiographical narratives. The discussion is based on the observation that the establishment of Soviet rule in Estonia in the 1940s is construed in the studies of life stories, on the one hand, as a discontinuity of 'normal life', and on the other hand, as continuity. It is remarkable that irrespective of the demarcation of state borders by political decisions,…
Cultural Borders in an Autobiographical Narrative
This article examines the life story of a woman born in a village in southern Estonia in 1918. It is based on two life stories told in Estonian and one told in Russian, as well as a story about her home. The stories were written at the initiative of the researcher between 1996 and 2004 and are stored in public archives. These texts have been chosen in that they are characteristic of the multifaceted phenomenon of inter-cultural contact: the narra…

In Estonia narrative history [pärimuslik ajalugu] as a field of study and research trend is internationally associated with concepts and trends known by keywords `oral history' and `ethnohistory'. Oral history deals mostly with popular interpretations of the near history and has sprung out of historical studies following the World War II. Ethnohistory is a folkloric approach to interpretations of the past, where the focus of study is narratives o…
Conflict, experience and nostalgia in family narratives. On the Example of Estonia and Finland
Mis sealt tõuseb, soost sinine, soost sinine, maast punane
The usage of color words in runo songs depends on: the possibilities of the existing language; the poetics of the runo song, the regional style, the world concept at the time of the runo song's creation.The frequency of using color words depends on the song's plot (they are mostly connected with marring fantasies and puzzle songs) and inside that, on its turn, on the song type. Colors are connected with not a certain song but rather with historic…
Rahvaluule mõiste kujunemine Eestis
The 1990s was a tumultuous decade in the Estonian society - the crisis in Estonian folkloristic studies was reflected in the following phenomena: theory lagged behind practice, the research priorities hitherto (Kalevala-song, folklore's poetics) were substituted for newer ones (folk religion, heritage group folklore), modern folklore arose as equal next to the folklore of the past. Among other things the new situation demanded the modernisation o…
Konflikt, kogemus ja nostalgia perepärimuses Eesti ja Soome näitel
The need to know one's ancestry has been justified by mythical, legal, as well as scientific explanations. But why do we discuss it and write about it in the modern society?We must search for the reasons for our interest in family heritage in the common elements of the earlier tradition and new forms of culture. Therefore, there is no need to study merely oral narratives, or separate them strictly from heritage in written form.The current article…

Complementarity of Sources in Studying Adaptation
The purpose of this article is to elucidate the complementary nature of two types of sources: First, an autobiographical narrative about the Soviet period written in 2005, 14 years after the period described. Second, a court file created by the representatives of Soviet authority from their point of view and containing material from the period 1945-1994. Both documents represent very different genres, are temporally different, have different purp…

The article discusses a development tendency in narrative research, focuses on the situation analysis worked out by Aino Laagus in the early 1970s, and introduces the boundaries of structuralism and constructivism in the study of true life stories during the past forty years. Leaving aside the distribution of themes and motifs and genre research methods, the article poses two main questions: (i) what is the situation analysis method and (ii) how …

Event Time and Interpretation Time
This research paper will study the phenomenon of time through folklore. The focus is on the educational film created in the 1950s about folk traditions that is analysed on three levels: the response of todayâ s students, the role of context in interpreting the film, and changes in the concept of folklore in the second half of the 20th century. The author argues that the shift of the main focus from the folk traditions of the time to the 1950s can…

Linnateema vanemas rahvalaulus
Vanem rahvalaul ei seostu eelduspäraselt linna või linnaelu kujutamisega. Esmalt tingib selle regilaulustiili vanus, mida hinnatakse mitme aastatuhandega (Tedre 2008 [1998]: 425; Sarv 2000: 13–14). Linnad hakkasid aga Eestis kujunema XIII–XIV sajandil (EA 2012: 123). Teiseks – meile tuntud regilaulude teemasid ning esitusviise seostatakse põlluharijate elustiiliga (Peegel 1997: 119). Ühtlasi oli Eestis XIX sajandi [...]
