Sommerfeber Hammerfest, Norway 17-21 August 2015 SommerFeber Hammerfest, Norway 17-21 August 2015 SommerFeber (en. SummerFever) is a youth festival that has been held annually in Hammerfest, Norway, since 2007. The festival focuses on culture and music, with several workshops and concerts culminating in a stage performance by the participants. The idea behind SommerFeber is that of a festival that brings together the youth of Hammerfest and Finnmark, and that heightens their knowledge about and experience with culture. SommerFeber is for youth between 13-22 from Hammerfest and all over the county of Finnmark. It is completely free to participate. Workshops are a major part of the festival. Participants get to explore their interests and learn from professionals. At the end of the festival there’s a stage show where the participants show what they’ve learned. This year’s workshops are: band, dance, film, theatre, costume design, scenography, styling, DJing, cooking and Dissimilis (a band workshop aimed at participants with special needs). We invite both national and local bands to SommerFeber. The popular Norwegian bands Sirkus Eliassen and Violet Road were the festival’s headliners in 2014. SommerFeber is for youth and by youth. There is a main project group consisting of youth workers from :bootleg and assisted by a group of young people with different backgrounds and experiences. Volunteering youth help with everything from PR to cooking food – or even booking the bands. :bootleg is the youth service centre in Hammerfest. It was established in 2003 by the municipality and aims to ensure that the youth of Hammerfest have a variety of cultural activities to choose from. :bootleg has a café with a pool table, air hockey, a portable stage and necessary technical equipment and a cinema with optional 3D. There’s also a media room (computers, photography equipments etc.), a practice room for musicians and a dance studio. In addition there’s a separate practice location called :bootleg BACKSTAGE with three practice rooms, full sets of instruments and a sound studio for recording. :bootleg provides youth in Hammerfest with the opportunity to explore and take charge of their own interests – with everything from starting their own lego leagues or participating in politics. Bootleg Tel.: +47 784 02 960 Hammerfest kommune E-mail: post@bootleg Pb. 1224/k www.bootleg.no N-9616 Hammerfest www.sommerfeber.no Norway With its 10287 people Hammerfest (70°39′45″N) is the northernmost settlement in the world with a population above 5000. Hammerfest was declared a city by royal decree in 1789 and has since then been historically known as “the northernmost town in the world”. The natural phenomenons of northern lights and midnight sun are easily experienced in this Arctic town. Hammerfest is located well above the Arctic Circle and has two months of night time during the winter and two months of day light during the summer. Today Hammerfest is a modern town enjoying the benefits of being the northernmost source for LNG (liquid natural gas). In 2008 the Arctic Cultural Centre was opened – a stunning building with all the facilities needed for concerts and other stage performances. .

  • Getting Food During the German Occupation of Western Finnmark (1940–1944)
    Getting food during the German occupation of Western Finnmark (1940–1944) Yaroslav Bogomolov In this article the author describes the food supply in the western part of Finnmark County. Despite the fact that the authorities tried to control the food supplies and secure equal access to food for all inhabitants, food distribution was never equal and civilians had to work hard and use their imagination in order to get some food to eat. 1 Introduction Nutrition as a topic was absent in historical studies for a long time. Food as a part of our daily routine is an almost invisible thing for historians. The changes have started to happen about two decades ago. As Clarkson and Crawford write “...nutritional history is moving out of the cellar”1. Today quite a lot of books have been published about human nutrition during various historical periods, but this work is still far from being finished. Aside from historical reports on Norwegians’ diet during the war2, nutrition on its own was very seldom a subject of interest for Norwegian authors3. This seems to me to be a bit strange. As we can see in articles by Mølmann et al. (2015) and Khatanzeiskaya (2015), insufficient nutrition was a cause of various health problems, so it is very important to study nutrition during the times of crisis. The topic of nutrition seems to me to be very comprehensive. It includes people’s daily diet, cuisine, ways of getting food, scientific approach to food (what kind of food is supposed to be healthy and how much of it is needed for each individual and so on) and much more.

Edited by { SERGIJ VILFAN in collaboration with 1 GUDMUND SANDVIK and LODE WILS 1. f' 1 ~... ,' Non-existent Sami Language Rights in Norway, 1850--1940 GUDMUND SANDVIK European Science Foundation NEW YORK UNIVERSITY PRESS DARTMOUTH 128 .., 13 Non-existent Sami Language Rights in Norway, 1850-1940 GUDMUND SANDVIK Background The Samis are an ethnic minority in the Nordic countries and in Russia. According to more or less reliable censuses, they number today about 40 000 in Norway (1 per cent of the total population), 20000 in Sweden (0.25 per cent), 4500 in Finland (0.1 per cent) and 2000 on the Kola peninsula in Russia. Only Finland has had a regular ethnic census. The Samis call themselves sapmi or sabmi. It is only recently (after 1950) that this name has been generally accepted in the Nordic countries (singular same, plural samer). Tacitus wrote about fenni;1 Old English had finnas;2 Historia NorvegitE (History of Norway) written about P80 had finni,3 and the Norse word was {imzar. 4 In medieval Icelandic and Norwegian literature, Finnmork was the region in northern Scandinavia where the Samis lived. The northern­ most Norwegian fylke (county) of today, Finnmark, takes jts name from the huge medieval Finnmork. But Samis of today still use the name S4pnzi for the entire region where they live (See Map 13.1, ;].. which "shows S4pmiwith state frontiers and some Sami centres). 'Finner' is accordingly an authentic Norwegian name.
