Abstract "This book sets out to document and analyse the S©Łmi narrative tradition. It considers the worldviews inherent in the narratives and links them to traditional cosmology and other cultural expressions (such as joik and duodji). The chapters address a variety of issues including care for children, the perception of nature, disputes over land and natural resources, local justice, the spiritual world of everyday life, and L©Œstadianism. Sketching S©Łmi history and the cultural context of storytelling, Nerg©Ærd also considers the modern challenge for the narrative tradition. Drawing on long-term fieldwork and research, the volume is valuable reading for Indigenous studies and disciplines such as anthropology"-- Provided by publisher.
