    Sibelius in the Context of the Finnish-German History Veijo Murtomäki Introduction The life and career of a composer cannot be considered as an isolated case without taking into account the wider context. The history of ideas and ideologies is always part of any serious enquiry into an artist’s personal history. Therefore we must bear in mind at least four points when considering the actions of artist and his or her country. Firstly, as the eminent Finnish historian Matti Klinge has observed, "the biggest challenge for understanding history is trying to situate oneself in the preconditions of the time-period under scrutiny while remembering that it did not know what the posterity knows."[1] Writing history is not primarily a task whereby the historian provides lines for actors to speak, but rather is an attempt to understand and explain why something happened, and to construct a context including all of the possible factors involved in a certain historical process. Secondly, supporting (or not opposing) an ideology prevailing at a certain time does not mean that the supporter (or non-opponent) is committing a crime. We could easily condemn half of the European intellectuals for supporting Fascism, Nazism, Communism or Maoism, or just for having become too easily attracted by these – in their mind – fascinating, visionary ideologies to shape European or world history. Thirdly, history has always been written by the winners – and thus, historiography tends to be distorted by exaggerating the evil of the enemy and the goodness of the victor. A moral verdict must be reached when we are dealing with absolute evil, but it is rare to find exclusively good or bad persons or civilizations; therefore history is rarely an issue of black and white.

  • From Silence to Historical Consciousness the Holocaust and WWII in Finnish History Politics
    From Silence to Historical Consciousness The Holocaust and WWII in Finnish History Politics ANTERO HOLMILA JOUNI TILLI ABSTRACT: Despite the fact that there are similar trajectories and turning points between Finland’s and other European countries’ responses to the Holocaust, it is still the case that trends in Holocaust studies and key debates within the field have had less impact on Finnish understanding of the Holocaust than one might suspect. Instead, as this article examines, the way in which Finland’s Holocaust awareness has been developing since the end of the war in general, and in the 2000s in particular, has been intimately linked with the Finnish understanding of its own role in WWII. This tendency was most clearly illustrated in the controversy that took place during 2003 and 2004 with the publication of Elina Sana’s book Luovutetut [The Extradited]. RÉSUMÉ : Malgré le fait qu’il existe des trajectoires et points-clés similaires entre la réponse de la Finlande et les réponses des autres pays européens à l’Holocauste, elle demeure le cas en vogue dans les études de l’Holocauste, et les débats-clés au sein de ce champ d’études ont eu moins d’impact sur la compréhension finlandaise de l’Holocauste que l’on pourrait le soupçonner. À la place, tel que l’examine cet article, la façon dont s’est développée la conscience finlandaise de l’Holocauste depuis la fin de la guerre en général, et dans les années 2000, en particulier, a été intimement liée à la compréhension finlandaise de son propre rôle dans la Seconde Guerre mondiale.

  • FINLAND's RELATIONS with the SOVIET UNION, 1940-1952 By
    FINLAND'S RELATIONS WITH THE SOVIET UNION, 1940-1952 by HANS PETER KROSBY B.A., University of British Columbia, 1955 A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS in INTERNATIONAL STUDIES We accept this Thesis as conforming to the required standard: UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA April, 1958 ABSTRACT In March 194-0, Finland had just completed another life and death struggle with the Soviet Union, the second such struggle since Bolshevik autocracy- replaced Tsarist autocracy in Russia in 1917. During the following fifteen months, Soviet diplomacy endeavoured to complete the job which the Red Army had "begun. By a unilateral and extremely liberal interpretation of the Peace Treaty of March 12, 1940, the Soviet Union tried to isolate Finland from her other neighbours and to establish a favourable basis for a complete annexation of Finland in the manner of the three Baltic States. Surrounded by Soviet and German military might, and noticing the increasing friction in the Nazi-Soviet alliance, Finland, in order to save herself from an imminent Soviet invasion, grasped the only straw which seemed to offer some hope: a transit agreement for German troops from Finland's Bothnian coast to Kirkenes in oc• cupied Norway. The resulting presence of German troops in the country did save Finland from becoming the seventeenth Soviet Socialist Republic in 1940 or 194-1* but it also involved her deeply in the Nazi-Soviet conflict which followed. When Germany attacked the Soviet Union in June 194-1, Finland tried in vain to have her neutrality respected, and she was attacked by Soviet forces three days after the German aggression.

It has become customary to publish their work in this series, the preceding one being the HB vol. 7 from the year 1996. Since the position of Hungarian Studies has now stabilized in Jyväskylä University, it is to be expected that we will be publishing more regularly in the future. This can be said also because the ‘Kádár- Kekkonen’ topic is still very timely and has not by any means been exhausted yet. We set ourselves to work with the convic- tion that these two statesmen and the conditions in their coun- tries deserve to be studied concomitantly and that their situa- tions under the shadow – dark in Finland, darker in Hungary – of the USSR and in the context of politics of the Cold War and détente resemble each other considerably. Of course, as sociolo- gists use to say, the search for similarities presupposes search for differences.

It examines the practices of knowledge production on Russia and the Soviet Union during the Finnish interwar period. Th e point of departure for this endeavour is the recognition that knowledge production is not an act of one’s subjectivity. It involves placing oneself within a tradition of interpreta- tion. In the study at hand, I examine how the Finnish ways of making sense of Russia unfold against the background of previous knowledge and experience which is wider than that of an individual interpreter. Similarly, this piece of research should not be read as an act of my subjectivity only.

Abstrakt Finsko se po druhé sv ětové válce nestalo sov ětským satelitem, a čkoliv k tomu mělo mnohé p ředpoklady – bylo poraženým státem a muselo plnit tvrdé podmínky přím ěř í v četn ě územních ztrát a vysokých reparací ve prosp ěch Sov ětského svazu. Práce na komparativním základ ě p řibližuje vnitropolitické ko řeny, které vedly k jedine čnému mezinárodn ěpolitickému postavení Finska v rámci prvních let studené války. Hlavním úkolem je pomocí sekundárních i primárních zdroj ů postihnout, jakou roli pro p řekvapující "finskou cestu" hrála osobnost premiéra a pozd ějšího prezidenta Juho Kusti Paasikiviho. Z jakých názorových bod ů vycházel? Byla jeho pozice srovnatelná s Edvardem Benešem v Československu? Podle záv ěrů práce se Paasikivi významn ě zasloužil o udržení finské demokracie. Úloha, jakou m ěly v krizové první polovin ě osma čty řicátého roku zprávy o komunistickém p řevratu v Československu, není opomenuta. Strach ze zm ěny režimu prostupoval finskou spole čnost a dotvá řel pozadí k jednání o Smlouv ě o p řátelství, spolupráci a vzájemné pomoci mezi Finskem a Sov ětským svazem ( YYA-sopimus ).
