This book sets out to document and analyse the Sami 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 Laestadianism. Sketching
Sami history and the cultural context of storytelling, Nergard 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.
