    2019 ACTA UNIVERSITATIS CAROLINAE PAG. 39–44 PHILOLOGICA 3 / GERMANISTICA PRAGENSIA SAMI TEXTS FROM KEMI SÁPMI RECORDED BY JENNY AND SAMULI PAULAHARJU MICHAL KOVÁŘ ABSTRACT Among the folklore texts collected by Jenny and Samuli Paulaharju in the 1920s and 1930s there are a few Sami texts from the area of Kittilä and Sodankylä. The texts are partly macaronic Finnish-Sami, only one or two might be considered authentic Sami. However, due to their small extent it is questionable whether it can be regarded as Kemi Sami, the language that has been believed to disappear about 200 years ago. Keywords: Kemi Sami; Jenny Paulaharju; Samuli Paulaharju; Sami folklore According to their grammatical and lexical features, the Sami languages are divided into two groups – the Western and the Eastern. Three Sami languages are nowadays spo- ken in Finland: North Sami, belonging to the Western group, Skolt Sami, and the endem- ic Sami language of Finland, Inari Sami, both belonging to the Eastern group. Another, namely the Kemi Sami language, belonging to the same group and nowadays extinct, used to be spoken in the territory of Finland between the Kittilä and Kuusamo localities. There is not much data available about Kemi Sami. The most significant represen- tatives are the authentic Sami songs written down by the Sami clergyman Olaus Sirma in the early 1670s.1 Sirma’s translation of Johannes Gezelius’s Catechism from Finnish (probably from 1716)2 and a short glossary compiled by Jacob Fellman during the 1820s3 show the differences between dialects from Nuortti/Nuortijärvi (Skolt Sami), Imandra (Skolt Sami), Kuolajärvi (Kemi Sami), Sompio (Kemi Sami), Inari (Inari Sami), Enon- tekiö (North Sami) and Utsjoki (North Sami), as well as the dialect continuum between Kemi Sami and the bordering Sami languages (Skolt, Inari, and perhaps North Sami as well).

  • Utsjoki: an Example of Implementing ICT in School Environment in Lapland Annikki LAUERMA University of Oulu Utsjoki-FINLAND
    Turkish Online Journal of Distance Education- TOJDE January 2000 ISSN 1302-6488 Volume: 1 Number: 1 Article No: 5 Utsjoki: An Example of Implementing ICT in School Environment in Lapland Annikki LAUERMA University of Oulu Utsjoki-FINLAND INTRODUCTION As to information and communication techology, Finland is in the front row in international comparison. The Finnish Parliament and the Ministry of Education emphasize lifelong learning and information society. Universities and institutions develop newlearning environments and a wide range of learning opportunities is available in our country. Schools are encouraged to exploit information and technology to the full. Within Finland Utsjoki is an Ultima Thule. It is the northernmost municipality on thetop of Finland and the whole EU. In the beginning of 1990s we had the opportunity of experimenting modern technology in education as a result of innovative experiments and projects which initiated first in the field of space physics and the study of atmosphere and later especially in observation of the northern ozone layer. We were lucky to be able to participate in the activities of association EURISY (The European Space Year) which offered our pupils challenging activities and international contacts including annual meetings abroad. Simultaneously information technology took long leaps and we could sense how the world shrinked: one of our very first international videoconferences was between Utsjoki and Noordwijk in the Netherlands where two students represented our school. We took part in the Forum by videoconferencing in Utsjoki, we could state questions to the speakers and interview our students there. All this gave us great expectations: ICT meant new opportunities, a way out to the world.

  • Debate Concerning the Early Transport Infrastructure in the Sámi Area of Finnish Lapland
    DEBATE CONCERNING THE EARLY TRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURE IN TEH SÁMI AREA OF FINNISH LAPLAND RITVA KYLLI AND JUHA SAUNAVAARA | Pages 85– 105 85 Debate concerning the early transport infrastructure in the Sámi area of Finnish Lapland RITVA KYLLI, University lecturer, History, Culture and Communication Studies, Faculty of Humanities, University of Oulu, Finland Corresponding author: email: [email protected] JUHA SAUNAVAARA, Assistant Professor, Arctic Research Center, Hokkaido University, Japan, ABSTRACT Tis article examines early Arctic transport infrastructure, especially roads, in the Sámi area of Finnish Lapland during the interwar period. Te modernisation process accelerated the utilisation of northern natural resources, and the frst roads in northernmost Finland also facilitated mining industry and logging sites. In the research concentrating on infrastructure, indigenous peoples have ofen been depic- ted one-dimensionally as victims and forces resisting development. While this study introduces the views of various stakeholders, it also emphasises the importance of understanding indigenous peoples as active agents, some of whom actively lobbied for plans to build roads. While the Sámi resistance to roads referred to, for example, their ability to damage and erode the traditional way of Sámi community life, the supporters underlined the economic possibilities and other benefts to be gained from the improved connectivity. Even though the vocabulary of the 1920s and 1930s difers from today’s language use, many of the ideas which have been discussed more recently – such as remoteness as a potential asset and the value of being disconnected – were already present in the debates of the beginning of the twentieth century.

In order to examine just how well the right to use one’s own language actually manifests in Finnish society, I examined the developments of language related rights internationally and in Europe and how those developments manifested in Finland. I also went over Finland’s linguistic history, seeing the developments that have lead us to today when Finland has three separate language act to deal with three different language situations. I analyzed the relevant legislations and by examining the latest language barometer studies, I wanted to find out what the real situation of these language and their identities are. I was also interested in the overall linguistic situation in Finland, which is affected by rising xenophobia and the issues surrounding the ILO 169.

  • Grensehandel I Sameland
    Prosjektnotat nr. 4-2003 Runar Døving Grensehandel i sameland Prosjektnotat nr.4-2003 Tittel Antall sider Dato Grensehandel i sameland 40 12.05.2003 Forfatter(e) Prosjektnummer Faglig ansvarlig sign. Runar Døving 11-2002-10 Oppdragsgiver Norges Forskningsråd Sammendrag Grensen mellom Norge og Finland går rett igjennom sameland. For samene er det derfor ingen grense. Når nordmenn krysser grensen drar de fra et eget norsk land til et svensk eller finsk land, med andre kulturer. For samer vaier det samme flagget, og grensen blir da bare en praktisk barriere, eller steder med billigere og andre varer eller tjenester. Kunnskapene om kvoter er minimal. Og man oppfatter ikke det man sørpå kaller smugling på samme måte. Den etniske og praktiske historiske erfaring gjør samenes forhold til grensehandelen meget avslappet. Moralske argumenter om at grensehandel er harry, eller at man bør støtte den norske stat er helt irrelevante problemstillinger i sameland. Heller ikke den strøm av ordet ”billig” hører man i Finnmark. Det kan synes som om både samer og finnmarkinger generelt har et mer avslappet og bevisst forhold til matens lave andel av husholdningsbudsjettet. Der nordmenn ser grensehandel som en politisk handling, er finsk sameland bare et sted der det selges billigere tobakk, øl eller kjøtt. Og det er ingen moralsk forskjell å dra til Lakselv for å handle møbler, enn det er til Karigasniemi for å handle tobakk. Finnmarkinger har en helt annet forhold til avstander enn man har sørpå. Man reiser mye og langt og veiene er gode. Man reiser gjerne gjennom Finland for å komme til andre steder i Norge.
