SUMMARY:SÁMI FOLKTALES FROM THE NEAR AND FAR WORLDS
DESCRIPTION:Join us on September 22 for a virtual discussion of Sámi Folktales From the Near and Far Worlds with translator Barbara Sjoholm! Barbara Sjoholm is an ASF Fellow and Translation Prize Winner whose lifelong work centers on Sámi culture and history. \nFrom the vast region of Northern Sápmi comes Sámi Folktales from the Near and Far Worlds\, the most extensive compilation of Sámi narratives recorded from Sámi storytellers ever published in English translation. Comprising more than 300 folktales and legends from Northern Norway\, including many from the coastal Sámi and the Skolt Sámi of Eastern Finnmark\, this volume illuminates an oral storytelling tradition and shares narratives told by fishers\, farmers\, reindeer herders\, lay preachers\, and teachers from the interior plateaus and valleys to the Arctic fjords. \nOriginally recorded in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries by the Norwegian philologist Just Knud Qvigstad and the Sámi politician and folklorist Isak Saba\, this collection spans centuries of storytelling in multiple genres\, from migratory fairytales with kings and princesses to legends of ghosts and the Devil to fables with talking animals. A young lad from a poor family embarks on a quest through the wilderness to find treasure\, receiving help from a wise female elder along his path. A Sámi boy falls in love with a háldi girl from another world\, and they find a way to marry. A man carries sickness out of a village and stops the plague from spreading. Cunning foxes outsmart bears and humans alike. The villainous Chudes are tricked\, foiled in their plans to steal from and kill the Sámi. People are turned into wolves\, able to turn back only if they don’t taste the blood of a reindeer or if they are given cooked food. The ogre Stállu appears again and again\, terrorizing the community until he’s outwitted or subdued. Rávgas\, undead creatures of the sea\, drag themselves out of the depths to lure others to their demise. \nREGISTER

DESCRIPTION:Create your own felted nesting bowls in this workshop series led by Scandinavia House’s veteran knitter Hilary Snell! \nIn this 4-part series\, participants will learn how to cast on and knit in the round on double pointed needles to make a small\, knitted bowl.

Once the knitting is done\, students will take the bowls home to wash and felt them into household art! \nMaterials needed: \n• 1-2 skeins of Cascade 220 yarn (2 skeins are necessary for a contrast stripe on the bowl; if not\, just 1 skein will do). Whatever yarn you buy\, it must be 100% wool\, worsted or thicker. \n• A set of No. 10 US double pointed needles (dpns) \nStudents must feel very comfortable knitting and be willing to stretch into a new skill using double pointed needles. Skills required: casting on\, knitting\, decreasing stitches\, casting off. Please note: this series cannot be taken as individual sessions and is best experienced as four progressive classes. \nPurchase Series Pass
