   Abstract : Throughout the history of archaeology, the Sámi (the indigenous people in northern Norway, Sweden, Finland and the Kola Peninsula in the Russian Federation) have been conceptualized as the “Others” in relation to the national identity and (pre)history of the modern states. It is only in the last decades that a field of Sámi archaeology that studies Sámi (pre)history in its own right has emerged, parallel with an ethnic and cultural revival among Sámi groups. READ MORE

4. 2. Revoicing Sámi narratives : north Sámi storytelling at the turn of the 20th century

   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; storytelling; folklore; folk narratives; oral tradition; Sámi culture; muitalus; critical discourse analysis; polyphony; Sami language; Samiska;

   Abstract : Revoicing Sámi narratives investigates the relationship between storytellers, contexts and collective tradition, based on an analysis of North Sámi narratives published in the early 1900s. This dissertation “revoices” narratives by highlighting the coexistence of different voices or socio-ideological languages in repertoires and by considering Sámi narratives as utterances by storytellers rather than autonomous products of tradition.

5. 3. Improving Tröger's Base Chemistry : Developing the Chemistry of Tröger's base

   Author : Sami Dawaigher; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Tröger’s base; Host Guest Chemistry; Metalation; Computational Chemistry; Supramolecular Chemistry;

   Abstract : The Tröger’s base framework has been implemented in two different receptors. The first of these receptors, incorporating two 18-crown-6 moities, was used as a host in a binding study together with a sieries of bisammonium salts that yielded different binding constants that were then used as a benchmark to compare different computational methods (Molecular Mechanics (MM) and Density Functional Theory (DFT)) in predicting the correct results where the MM methods proved more effective.
