  • Stadnamn I Luster Kommune I Indre Sogn
    Universitetet i Bergen Institutt for lingvistiske, litterære og estetiske studiar Stadnamn i Luster kommune i Indre Sogn Ein prototypebasert analyse av namnelandskapet i eit vestlandsk jordbruksdistrikt Samuele Mascetti NOLISP350 Mastergradsoppgåve i nordisk Vår 2017 Føreord Å skriva denne masteravhandlinga har vore for meg fyrst og fremst ei personleg fordjuping i tankegangen og levemåten typiske for både staden eg kjem frå og staden eg har valt å bu på: Alpane og Vestlandet. Eg er fødd og oppvaksen i ei lita fjellbygd ved Comosjøen i nordlege Lombardia fylke i Nord-Italia, ved grensa mot Sveits. Det alpine innsjølandskapet har mykje til felles med fjordlandskapet på Vestlandet: Høge, bratte fjell som stuper i vatnet, djupe og grisgrendte dalar, dårlege vegar og mykje, mykje regn. Kulturlandskapet er òg nokso likt: Jordbruket var lenge hovudnæringa i det alpine området, og stølinga spelte ei sentral rolle i den tradisjonelle gardsordninga. Det norditalienske setersystemet er nesten identisk med det vestlandske og dei fleste bruka har to setrar: Heimesetra (kalla munt, ‘fjell’ på lombardisk), som ligg om lag mellom 600 og 1400 moh. og er nytta vår og haust, og langsetra (kalla alp, ‘høgfjell’ på lombardisk), som ligg om lag mellom 1500 og 2500 moh. og er nytta om sumaren. Dei fleste bygdene ligg mellom 200 og 600 moh., so begge setrar er utstyrde med stølshus, sidan dei ligg fleire timar gonge frå heimehusa. Som gutunge var eg mang ein sumar på selet hans bestefar og fekk oppleva den gamle stølstradisjonen, som diverre alt då var døyande: Dei fleste gardsbrukarane la driftene ned pga. den uoverkomelege økonomiske sentraliseringa i jordbrukspolitikken til EU-landa, som trengte dei småe produsentane ut til fordel for dei store industrialiserte bruka i låglandet kring storbyane.

Bacheloroppgaven er et resultat av at Luster kommune stilte analysen som et forslag til en bachelor- oppgave, og bakgrunnen for at vi valgte oppgaven er fordi vi alle hadde erfaring med landskapsanalyse fra tidligere fag. Dermed hadde vi sett hvordan denne kan brukes som et verktøy for å kartlegge og ivareta et landskap, og for oss var landskapsanalysens evne til å beskrive hvordan utbygging av ulike områder vil kunne påvirke stedsidentiteten til områdene, viktig for valget.
