Interdisciplinary and Comparative Methodologies
The Retrospective Methods Network Newsletter Interdisciplinary and Comparative Methodologies № 14 Exploring Circum-Baltic Cultures and Beyond Guest Editors: Joonas Ahola and Kendra Willson Published by Folklore Studies / Department of Cultures University of Helsinki, Helsinki 1 RMN Newsletter is a medium of contact and communication for members of the Retrospective Methods Network (RMN). The RMN is an open network which can include anyone who wishes to share in its focus. It is united by an interest in the problems, approaches, strategies and limitations related to considering some aspect of culture in one period through evidence from another, later period. Such comparisons range from investigating historical relationships to the utility of analogical parallels, and from comparisons across centuries to developing working models for the more immediate traditions behind limited sources. RMN Newsletter sets out to provide a venue and emergent discourse space in which individual scholars can discuss and engage in vital cross- disciplinary dialogue, present reports and announcements of their own current activities, and where information about events, projects and institutions is made available. RMN Newsletter is edited by Frog, Helen F. Leslie-Jacobsen, Joseph S. Hopkins, Robert Guyker and Simon Nygaard, published by: Folklore Studies / Department of Cultures University of Helsinki PO Box 59 (Unioninkatu 38 C 217) 00014 University of Helsinki Finland The open-access electronic edition of this publication is available on-line at: https://www.helsinki.fi/en/networks/retrospective-methods-network Interdisciplinary and Comparative Methodologies: Exploring Circum-Baltic Cultures and Beyond is a special issue organized and edited by Frog, Joonas Ahola and Kendra Willson. © 2019 RMN Newsletter; authors retain rights to reproduce their own works and to grant permission for the reproductions of those works. -

A Study on the Artemis Fowl Series in the Context of Publishing Success
A Study on the Artemis Fowl Series in the Context of Publishing Success C Essay in English Katarina Lindve Department of Humanities Supervisor: Thorsten Schröter Mälardalen University VT 2007 ABSTRACT A close reading of a series of books by Eoin Colfer that enjoyed universal success showed a change in the language between the books especially with respect to minor linguistic features such as choice of location and abstract vs. concrete language. The books are about the boy Artemis Fowl, and were presumably conceived as children’s books. My original thesis was that the writer could not be sure of the success of the first book, but would definitely be aware of a worldwide audience for at least his third book, due to, for example, questions raised by the translators. If the original audience was expected to be Irish, or British, with very much the same cultural background as the author’s, the imagined subsequent audiences would change with success. My hope was to be able to show this by comparing linguistic features. And indeed, even though some changes could be due to coincidence there was a specific pattern evolving in the series, in that the originally Irish cultural background became less exclusive and more universal. The writer also used more details concerning locations, with added words to specify a place. What could thus be expected in the translated versions would be omissions and additions in especially the first book, but less need for that in later books. This, however, could not be proven in the Swedish translations. I thus conclude that the books became easier to follow for a wider, in this case Swedish, audience mostly because of efforts by the author and less because of the translator. -

The Fear of Little Men on the Prehistorical and Historical Treatment of Individuals with Dwarfism
The Fear of Little Men On the Prehistorical and Historical Treatment of Individuals with Dwarfism Großer Hund, Zwerg und Knabe. Jan Fyt. 1652. Högskolan på Gotland VT2013 Kandidatuppsats Författare: Josefin Åkerblom Instutionen för kultur, energi och miljö Handledare: Sabine Sten Bihandledare: Magdalena Fraser 1 The Fear of Little Men – On the Prehistorical and Historical Treatment of Individuals with Dwarfism 2 ABSTRACT The Fear of Little Men – On the Prehistorical and Historical Treatment of Individuals with Dwarfism Skräcken för små män – Om den förhistoriska och historiska behandlingen av individer med dvärgväxt Den här uppsatsens syfte har varit att kartlägga skillnader i representation av individer med dvärgväxt, från antikens Egypten fram till renässansen. Forskning har gjorts på detta utanför Sverige, men de fyra svenska människorna med dvärgväxt har inte tillfogats och jämförts med det utländska materialet innan denna uppsats. Metoden har varit en litterär jämförelse där andra författare har analyserats. De förhistoriska och historiska litterära verken som dessa författare undersökt har bland annat innefattat egyptiska papyrus, grekisk och romersk lagstiftning och medeltida dokument. Konst från dessa tider har också undersökts. Resultatet av uppsatsen har varit att uppfattningen av dvärgväxt har undergått stor variation genom förhistorien och historien. Ju längre tillbaka vi går desto högre tolerans finner vi. Dvärgar var populära i Egypten på ett sätt som återkommer i medeltidens och renässansens Europa, då hovdvärgar är på modet. Hur det har sett ut i Skandinavien är svårt att säga trots de mänskliga kvarlevorna som påträffats av individer med dvärgväxt. I uppsatsen tas även myter och folklore om dvärgar upp för att måla en djupare förståelsebild av acceptansen i samhället och hur legender kan antingen hjälpa eller stjälpa i sammanhanget. -
