  • The Audience of Contemporary Dance in Finland
    Facts about the Arts Publication no 31 Arts Council of Finland Helsinki 2003 Timo Cantell The Audience of Contemporary Dance in Finland A study on the audience of the contemporary dance festival Dance Arena 2000 English Summary Dance Arena 2000 This report studies contemporary dance audiences in Finland based on the festival Dance Arena 2000, organised in February 2000. The Dance Arena festival presented key Finnish choreographers, performers and groups as part of the European City of Culture programme in the year 2000, when Helsinki celebrated this special nomination along with eight other Euro- pean cities. The aim of the Dance Arena was to highlight the current state of contemporary dance in Finland, enhance its image, market it abroad and widen the audience base of dance performances overall. The research material In all, the festival featured 30 performances, with an audience totalling close to 5,000. The venues used represented typical dance venues in Hel- sinki, ranging from the Finnish National Opera, the Helsinki City Theatre, and Kiasma – Museum of Contemporary Art, to the smaller venues of Stoa in the eastern part of the city and Zodiak – the Center for New Dance, located at the Cable Factory in the southwestern part of Helsinki. The fes- tival budget was some 250,000 euros, part of which was used for an extraordinarily visible marketing campaign in Helsinki. This research is based on an audience survey conducted in eight events representing a variety of the festival programming. In all, 805 question- 83 naires were filled in. The audience was very motivated as 91 per cent of the respondents returned the questionnaires, a high but not uncommon figure in similar kinds of audience studies in Finland.

  • The Transformation of an Oral Poem in Elias Lönnrot's Kalevala
    Oral Tradition, 8/2 (1993): 247-288 From Maria to Marjatta: The Transformation of an Oral Poem in Elias Lönnrot’s Kalevala1 Thomas DuBois The question of Elias Lönnrot’s role in shaping the texts that became his Kalevala has stirred such frequent and vehement debate in international folkloristic circles that even persons with only a passing interest in the subject of Finnish folklore have been drawn to the question. Perhaps the notion of academic fraud in particular intrigues those of us engaged in the profession of scholarship.2 And although anyone who studies Lönnrot’s life and endeavors will discover a man of utmost integrity, it remains difficult to reconcile the extensiveness of Lönnrot’s textual emendations with his stated desire to recover and present the ancient epic traditions of the Finnish people. In part, the enormity of Lönnrot’s project contributes to the failure of scholars writing for an international audience to pursue any analysis beyond broad generalizations about the author’s methods of compilation, 1 Research for this study was funded in part by a grant from the Graduate School Research Fund of the University of Washington, Seattle. 2 Comparetti (1898) made it clear in this early study of Finnish folk poetry that the Kalevala bore only partial resemblance to its source poems, a fact that had become widely acknowledged within Finnish folkoristic circles by that time. The nationalist interests of Lönnrot were examined by a number of international scholars during the following century, although Lönnrot’s fairly conservative views on Finnish nationalism became equated at times with the more strident tone of the turn of the century, when the Kalevala was made an inspiration and catalyst for political change (Mead 1962; Wilson 1976; Cocchiara 1981:268-70; Turunen 1982).

  • The Role of the Kalevala in Finnish Culture and Politics URPO VENTO Finnish Literature Society, Finland
    Nordic Journal of African Studies 1(2): 82–93 (1992) The Role of the Kalevala in Finnish Culture and Politics URPO VENTO Finnish Literature Society, Finland The question has frequently been asked: would Finland exist as a nation state without Lönnrot's Kalevala? There is no need to answer this, but perhaps we may assume that sooner or later someone would have written the books which would have formed the necessary building material for the national identity of the Finns. During the mid 1980s, when the 150th anniversary of the Kalevala was being celebrated in Finland, several international seminars were held and thousands of pages of research and articles were published. At that time some studies appeared in which the birth of the nation state was examined from a pan-European perspective. SMALL NATION STATES "The nation state - an independent political unit whose people share a common language and believe they have a common cultural heritage - is essentially a nineteenth-century invention, based on eighteenth-century philosophy, and which became a reality for the most part in either the late nineteenth or early twentieth century. The circumstances in which this process took place were for the most part marked by the decline of great empires whose centralised sources of power and antiquated methods of administrations prevented an effective response to economic and social change, and better education, with all the aspirations for freedom of thought and political action that accompany such changes." Thus said Professor Michael Branch (University of London) at a conference on the literatures of the Uralic peoples held in Finland in the summer of 1991.

    METALLIMUSIIKKI PAPERILLA Diskurssianalyysi Juho Juntusen artikkelista ”Raskas metalli” Ilppo Lukkarinen musiikkikasvatuksen pro gradu Musiikin laitos kevät 2006 JYVÄSKYLÄN YLIOPISTO Tiedekunta Laitos Humanistinen Musiikin laitos Tekijä Lukkarinen Ilppo Antero Työn nimi Metallimusiikki paperilla – Diskurssianalyysi Juho Juntusen artikkelista ”Raskas metalli” Oppiaine Työn laji Musiikkikasvatus Pro gradu -tutkielma Aika Sivumäärä Helmikuu 2006 73 + liite (2s) Tiivistelmä Metallimusiikki eli hevi ja metalli on ollut Suomessa johtava rockin tyylilaji vähintään 2000-luvun alkuvuodet. Kotimaiset bändit, kuten HIM, Stratovarius ja Nightwish, ovat nauttineet myös merkittävää kansainvälistä suosiota, mikä oli aikaisemmin harvinaista. Bändien taustalta on löydettävissä kulttuurinen keskittymä: Suomessa soitetaan metallia paljon, sinnikkäästi ja hyvällä tasolla. Musiikki on sosiokulttuurinen ilmiö, ja sen käytännöt rakennetaan pitkälti kielenkäytön avulla. Soivan todellisuuden rinnalla on tarina, joka syntyy niistä dokumenteista – esimerkiksi uutisista, artikkeleista ja internet-sivustoista – joita musiikista tuotetaan. Tutkin metallimusiikin ilmenemistä kirjoitetussa tekstissä. Analysoitavana aineistona on Juho Juntusen artikkeli Raskas metalli (2004), yleisesitys metallimusiikin vaiheista Suomessa 1970-luvulta alkaen. Juntusella on takanaan liki 30 vuoden työ rocklehti Soundissa, ja artikkelissa saavat puheenvuoron useat metalli- muusikot, joten tekstin voi olettaa uusintavan suomalaisen metallimusiikin keskeisiä käytäntöjä.
