 Simultaneously Elsewhere. Imagining Migrancy in Early 20th Century Finnish Literature
 The article discusses the functions of early 20th century Finnish language fiction on Finnish­American migrancy. The author suggests that fiction depicting migrant life served its contemporary readership as a utopic ”elsewhere” where mobility, gender and agency could be articulated differently from what could be done in literature depicting life in Finland. The argument is developed through readings of three reoccurring tropes articulating migrant subjectivity in fiction: the family

Abstract:
This study explores cross-linguistically, in English, Czech and Finnish, eye-behaviour that occurs in children’s fiction in the vicinity of character speech. We explore how authentic eye behaviour, as an important part of non-verbal communication, is rendered in fictional worlds. While there are more similarities than differences across the languages in the characteristics and narrative functions of fictional eye-behaviour, the linguistic encoding differs substantially due to typological differences between the languages. The same semantic roles are often expressed by divergent syntactic means

Abstract:
When the Finnish Winter War erupted at the end of November 1939, it caused consternation beyond the borders of Finland; after all, mighty U.S.S.R had just attacked a small independent neighbouring country, justifying the aggression with securing its own domestic interests. I will be examining two contemporary Winter War plays and their genesis: Hagar Olsson’s Lumisota (Snowball War, 1939) depicts the threat of a fictitious war and the conflicting reactions to that threat – reactions that were put to the test during rehearsals when the prospect of war became imminent, mirroring events in the pl

Abstract This article outlines the aims and methodology of a new study in the field of children's literature. The research makes use of a composite corpus representing original English, original Finnish and translated Finnish from English. The initial focus of this investigation is the analysis of nonfinite constructions, taken as a measure of readability of children's books. Ultimately its aim is to infer, through the interpretation of the lexico-grammatical patterns emerging in the corpus, the ideological norms prevailing in the literary systems of English and Finnish children's fiction.

Abstract The article analyzes the ideologically motivated representations of noble poverty in nineteenth-century Finnish print publications that were used to justify a takeover of society by commoners.

Abstract:
Future enlargement of the European Union is destined to accentuate the problems of its translation services. Some lessons for likely scenarios can be gleaned from the addition of Finnish to the list of official languages in 1995, especially with respect to juridical syntax, new terminology, the status of a relatively ‘opaque’ language, and the social factors influencing acceptance of change. These issues are linked to the special theoretical problems ensuing from translational equivalence as an EU ‘legal fiction’ and the subsequent non-directionality of translated texts. Official equality also

This article discusses reading circles of adult Finnish as a second language (L2) readers. The books that were read and discussed in the circles were easy-to-read fiction. The study focuses on how the readers interpret what they read and what kind of support they need for their interpretations. The analysis utilizes the concept of scaffolding, used in socio-cultural learning theory. The readers’ reading stances vary from what is literally said in the text to creating their own interpretations of the hidden meanings of the text. The latter are not very common in the reading circles, although ma

Abstract:
Simplification is one of the hypothesised universals of translation. It has been investigated, firstly, through the comparison of source and target texts, and secondly, by comparing translated and non-translated texts. In this paper, the focus is on the latter type of comparison. One aspect of simplification concerns the range of lexical items used in translations as opposed to non-translations. Corpus-based investigations conducted to this day suggest that the variety of lexicon is not narrower in translated texts than in non-translated texts.
