Meahcci: The Place We Live
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024)How can we investigate relational connections to the land? How can we do so within relational contexts from a Sámi perspective? In this chapter I focus on relational contexts that refer to the interaction between humans and the land itself, as a mutual interaction. Meahcci, the place that forms part of my title, has many meanings. In this chapter, I present a short investigation of stories connected ... -
Art Write Cope and Sámi Birgengoansttat
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024)“You should not be a person of only one occupation.” The Sámi scholar in pedagogy, Aimo Aikio, explains this phrase in his book Olmmoš han gal birge (2010, 20-30). The phrase says a lot about the Sámi traditional way of thinking and living, and about Sámi birgengoansta, coping skills. In the Northern Sámi language we have the terms birget, and ceavzit: birget means coping and managing practically ... -
Sensing Polar Ice Bodies
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024-02-23)This chapter investigates how the long-term project we are opposite like that (2017–2022) by contemporary artist Himali Singh Soin engages with posthuman feminist concepts within an Arctic discourse, here in particular in relation to the climatic changes that lead to the melting of the Polar caps, and what the gradual disappearance and transformation of what has dominated its landscape and mythologies ... -
Learning and unlearning Verb Second word order
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024)The topic of this chapter is Verb Second (V2) word order, which is primarily found in main clauses in most of the Germanic languages. The chapter first describes the standard theoretical analyses of this syntactic phenomenon and then goes on to provide an overview of what we know about the acquisition of V2 by monolingual children as well as simultaneously and successively bilingual children. This ... -
Phrasal Vowel Harmony
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024)Vowel harmony is usually claimed to be word bound, and the ‘word’ is usually taken to refer to the phonological word, not the grammatical word, since compounds are often disharmonic. Indeed, vowel harmony is said to rarely cross lexical word boundaries, either within compounds or within phrases. (See, e.g., Archangeli & Pulleyblank 2007; Hyman 2002; Kaisse 2019; Kiparsky, this volume; Krämer 2003; ... -
Non-alternating, non-participating, and idiosyncratic vowels
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024)Vowel harmony usually results in a domain, such as the prosodic word, containing only vowels 8 of the same type, e.g., only front or only back vowels, to the exclusion of back or front vowels, 9 respectively. Such sequences of like vowels are often disrupted or do not span over the whole 10 domain because of vowels in the string that do not participate (van der Hulst & van de Weijer 11 1995; Baković ... -
Introduction
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024)Literature is an institution per se, as is justice, and these two institutions enact each other in complex ways. Justice appears in many forms from divine right and religious ordainment to metaphysical imperative and natural law, to national jurisdiction, social order, human rights, and civil disobedience. What is just and right has varied in time and place, in war and peace. A sense of justice ... -
The Legacy of Semaus Heaney's North
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024)“What is history? What is love? What is justice? Sanity? Reason? Do the gods really exist, and does it matter?” Professor of law Yxta Maya Murray (2015, 137) certainly asks the grand questions in “Punishment and the Costs of Knowledge,” many of which will be recognized in Shakespeare’s drama, in French philosophy, and by people who appreciate the “good literature” that “summons powerful emotions” ... -

Utilising this ... -
Russland: ord om krig og krig om ord
(Chronicle; Kronikk, 2025-03-05)Ord speiler virkeligheten, også krigens virkelighet i dagens Russland. Samtidig pågår det en «krig» om ordenes betydning. Er det regimet i Kreml eller folk flest som bestemmer hva ordene skal bety? -

What goes around, comes around: Cases that keep me going
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024)I am fascinated by the treasure trove of meanings tucked away in the grammatical morphemes that many people think of as mere functional fillers. As a student, the Slavic case endings baffled me, then later delighted me with their complex stories about trajectories, time, benefit and harm, labels, and so much more. Some twenty years ago I was satisfied that I had cracked that code, and after writing ... -

„Denken in einer schlechten Welt“: Von der Notwendigkeit einer kritischen Videospielforschung
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024)Das diesem Text vorgestellte Zitat von Judith Butler erinnert uns an etwas, das man im heutigen (Universitäts-) Alltag schnell vergessen kann: Kritik erfordert Sorgfalt – Sorgfalt im Lesen, Sorgfalt im Denken, Sorgfalt im Schreiben undSorgfalt im Handeln. Damit sind wir bereits mittendrin in einer kritischen Verortung forschender Praxis zu Videospielen, wie wir sie in diesem Band an-streben. Denn: ... -
Kyläpeli og iscenesettelse av kvensk kultur i landsbyspill og på museum
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024-11-04)Hvordan iscenesettes kulturarv i et kvensk «kyläpeli»? Med utgangspunkt i den kvenske innvandringen til Raisi rettes fremstillingen mot fortid og kvensk kulturarv. Men dette knyttes til relasjoner mellom ulike etniske og sosiale grupper, mellom naturlige omgivelser og det overnaturlige og mellom steder og mennesker. Iscenesettelsen av kulturarv, fortelling og etnisk identitet åpner for dynamiske ... -
Future constructions in English and Norwegian: A contrastive corpus study.
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-10-11)The choice between the future constructions will/shall and BE going to is among the most well-investigated topics in English linguistics.

Recent research has taken a contrastive perspective and investigated whether similar factors also apply to Norwegian, which shows a very ...
