Broadwell and Timothy R. Tangherlini Abstract We describe the challenges of devising a federated multilingual search engine for a series of otherwise unconnected tradition archives. The international project, Intelligent Search Engine for Belief Legends (ISEBEL), solves several challenges from this broader problem. First, the collections are made searchable through a single interface by implementing an Open Archive Initiative-Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH) system for three target collections (Netherlands, Germany and Denmark). To address the problems of searching across multi- lingual collections, we devise a hybrid system that relies on Neural Machine Translation using a Transformer architecture, and expert created tables of domain specific terms. By integrating these approaches, users can search from a single portal over a corpus of nearly seventy thou- sand legends in English. Results are returned from all of the language groups in the collection, while places are projected on a map. Keywords: Legend, multilingual search engine, language, computational folkloristics, archives Introduction If legends collected in the late nineteenth century are any indication, rural Danish farming communities were the sites of fairly consistent – and alarm ­­­­ ing – supernatural intrusions. Witches threatened the production of milk and the churning of butter; ghosts and revenants rampaged through cemeteries and barns; the fields, dotted with boulders thrown by long vanished giants, were filled with hidden folk who, when angered, threatened to tear the roofs off farmhouses; basilisks banged about in old beer kegs; serpents slept in the stone walls separating fields; the local church, surrounded by even big- ger serpents, was also the stomping grounds of Satan; and brownies made life indoors unpredictable at best (Kristensen 1980). People venturing out- side the village could be waylaid by robbers in the woods, drowned by river spirits, seduced by elves, or lured to their deaths in the ocean by merfolk. Standing between villagers and these threats were Lutheran ministers, cun- ning folk, wandering Norwegians, brave farmhands or a person’s own quick wits or dumb luck. Late nineteenth century Denmark’s belief landscape, in 8 Peter M. Broadwell and Timothy R. Tangherlini short, was just as filled with dangers and disruptions as were the political, physical and economic landscapes of the time (Gunnell 2005; Tangherlini 2005). Indeed, it is this interdependence between belief and the lived world that undergirds interpretive perspectives on legends that reveal their crucial role in the ongoing negotiation of cultural ideology in times of considerable change (Gunnell 2009; Taussig 2010; Tangherlini 2013a). Of course, these observations about Denmark also lead to a question: while all this was going on in Denmark, what was happening in neighboring coun tries? Certainly, nineteenth century southern Sweden seemed to be in the grip of similar, yet subtly different, supernatural threats, while Norway’s tall mountains and deep fjords played host to a distinctive set of violently threatening beings (Klintberg 2010; Christiansen 1977). Northern Germany and the Nether lands again shared some overlap in the belief landscape, but the particular characteristics of their versions of these supernatural threats, along with other unheard-of threats (at least from the perspective of Danish farmers) ensured slight differences in the belief topography (Bächtold- Staubli et al. 1927–42; Saatkamp & Schlüter 1995). Iceland, perhaps because of its island status, had a divergent set of beliefs, although aspects of its witchcraft and wizardry had some commonalities with earlier, poten- tially pan-Nordic, beliefs (Mitchell 1997; Mitchell 2011; Gunnell 2012). Understanding the areas of overlap, commonality, and potential influence between and across not only national but also linguistic borders, provides greater nuance to interpretations of the impact of beliefs on worldview in local communities (Dundes 1971; Dégh 2001). Yet developing research col- lections from disparate archival and print resources that can help answer these questions is a considerable challenge. The nineteenth and early twentieth centuries mark the heyday of broad national folklore collecting and archiving, at least in Northern Europe (Estonian Folklore Archives 2017). Although most national archival col- lections were initially envisioned in the context of emergent Romantic nation alist ideals and, as such, to support the imaginings of the “nation” as a coherent culturally homogeneous entity, the linguistic diversity of “nations” necessarily also meant that many of these archives included records in all of the languages of the nation in question, whether those languages were con- ceived of as dialects or as wholly independent (Bendix 1997; Hult 2003). Searching even in a fairly narrow “national” archive, thus, could tax the linguistic abilities of many researchers (Gunnell 2010). The Danish folk- lore archive, for instance, includes stories recorded not only

  • Ilmari Krohn and the Early French Contacts of Finnish Musicology: Mobility, Networking and Interaction1 Helena Tyrväinen
    Ilmari Krohn and the Early French Contacts of Finnish Musicology: Mobility, Networking and Interaction1 Helena Tyrväinen Abstract Conceived in memory of the late Professor of Musicology of the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre Urve Lippus (1950–2015) and to honour her contribution to music history research, the article analyses transcultural relations and the role of cultural capitals in the discipline during its early phase in the uni- versity context. The focus is on the early French contacts of the founder of institutional Finnish musicology, the Uni- versity of Helsinki Professor Ilmari Krohn (1867–1960) and his pupils. The analysis of Krohn’s mobility, networking and interaction is based on his correspondence and documentation concerning his early congress journeys to London (1891) and to Paris (1900). Two French correspondents stand out in this early phase of his career as a musicologist: Julien Tiersot in the area of comparative research on traditional music, and Georges Houdard in the field of Gregorian chant and neume notation. By World War I Krohn was quite well-read in French-language musicology. Paris served him also as a base for international networking more generally. Accomplished musicians, Krohn and his musicology students Armas Launis, Leevi Madetoja and Toivo Haapanen even had an artistic bond with French repertoires. My results contradict the claim that early Finnish musicology was exclusively the domain of German influences. In an article dedicated to the memory of Urve Lip- Academy of Music and Theatre, Urve considered pus, who was for many years Professor of Musicol- that a knowledge of the music history of Finland, ogy and director of the discipline at the Estonian as well as of the origins of music history writing Academy of Music and Theatre, it is appropriate in this neighbouring country, would be useful to to discuss international cooperation, mobility of Estonians.

Degree awarded June 2014 ii © 2014 Yvonne Toepfer iii DISSERTATION ABSTRACT Yvonne Toepfer Doctor of Philosophy Department of Comparative Literature June 2014 Title: Afterlives of the Sandman: Re-Figuring the Fantastic-Sublime This comparative project investigates different representations of the sandman between the 19th century and the 20th century. My discussion focuses on Romantic texts, in particular E.T.A. Hoffmann’s 1816 literary tale “Der Sandmann.” While the traditional scholarship on Hoffmann uses both psychoanalytical and feminist approaches, I show how Friedrich Schlegel’s concept of chaos and Jean-François Lyotard’s concept of the postmodern sublime help us to understand Hoffmann’s complex narrative structure. I argue that in Hoffmann’s tale there is no unified sandman figure. However, different storytellers in the tale shape the sandman’s various depictions. In a way, the sandman figure becomes a fluid character whose enigma the narrative’s structure sustains.

  • Som Folklorist Ämneshistoria
    Carl Wilhelm von Sydow von Wilhelm Carl Etnologer och antropologer studerar människan som kultur­ varelse i gången tid och nutid. Själva träder de vanligen tillbaka och fokuserar helt på »de andra». Men sedan humanistisk forskning mer och mer presenteras som ett samtal eller en be­ rättelse med olika parter måste ljuset också falla på forskarna själva. Biografisk forskning har glädjande nog på nytt fått in­ tresse inte bara bland allmänheten utan också i forskarvärlden. I denna bok gör författaren en ingående analys av folkmin­ nesforskningens grundare i Sverige Carl Wilhelm von Sydow (1878–1952). Vi får möta en fascinerande personlighet och följa hans kamp för sitt ämne i olika nätverk med såväl vänner som motståndare. Hans livsöde är nära sammanflätat med hans forskning. Boken är därför på en gång en biografi och ett stycke folklorist som ämneshistoria. Nils­Arvid Bringéus var under åren 1967–1991 innehavare av lärostolen i etnologi, särskilt europeisk, vid Lunds universitet. Boken avslutas med ett kåseri av Max von Sydow om sin far hållet i Lund 1988 och med en bibliografi av Jan­Öjvind Swahn, en av von Sydows sista lärjungar. Nils-ArvidBringéus Carl Wilhelm Kungl.
