Une nature arctique qui protége et nourrit: le contre-récit des Kvènes récrit la relation au monde naturel / Arctic nature as the great reconciler and rescuer – The Kvens' counter-narrative rewrites the relationship between man and nature
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2019)The Kvens are a national minority in Norway long subject to a policy of assimilation. This article examines the Kven-language novels of Alf Nilsen-Børsskog as counter-narratives and descriptions of Arctic nature and the Kvens' living environment. Norwegian fiction has depicted the Kvens since the 1870s, but Nilsen-Børsskog’s series <i>Elämän jatko 1-4 (Life Goes On, 2004-2015)</i> is the first to ... -
Female Aliens in (Post-)Soviet Sci-Fi Cinema: Technology, Sacrifice and Morality Feminism
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019)In this article I will discuss a number of (post-) Soviet sci-fi films, stretching over a hundred years or so, to look into what function (post-) Soviet female superhuman characters have, and what they might tell us about fundamental discussions of humanity and its relation to technology, identity and gender. By looking into the traditional function of women in Russian and Soviet culture, the Marxist ... -
"I will teach you differences": A meta-theoretical approach to narrative theory
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-07-02)The article seeks to explore sameness and difference in narrative theory by way of shifting the emphasis from the narratives themselves to the research acts we perform on narratives. It proposes a model for analyzing research acts. Applying this model to various research acts in narrative theory it shows that what it implies to look for sameness and difference within narratives will vary with the ... -
The Political Economy of Memory Production in the Videogames Industry
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-11-29)Following the materialist approaches to contemporary digital memory- making, this article explores how unequal access to memory production in videogames is determined along economic and cultural lines.

Qué hacen las preposiciones en las perífrasis
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-12)En este artículo nos ocupamos de la naturaleza del llamado nexo de las perífrasis, y específicamente de los casos que son aparentemente preposiciones (<i>ir a</i> + <i>infinitivo</i>, <i>dejar de</i> + <i>infinitivo</i>). Mostraremos a través de una serie de pruebas que no cabe considerarlos formas fosilizadas que aparecen por un motivo de idiosincrasia léxica; antes bien, es posible establecer una ... -
Perífrasis e inductores negativos: un análisis en términos de dominios
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019)En este trabajo nos ocupamos de las estructuras perifrásticas que contienen negación en su interior, siguiendo el esquema <auxiliar + no + auxiliado>, y concretamente de las condiciones bajo las cuales una perífrasis admite la interposición de este adverbio. Argumentamos, mediante un examen detallado de las perífrasis de gerundio e infinitivo, que la interposición de la negación produce una lectura ... -
Construal vs. redundancy: Russian aspect in context
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-07-10)The relationship between construal and redundancy has not been previously explored empirically. Russian aspect allows speakers to construe situations as either Perfective or Imperfective, but it is not clear to what extent aspect is determined by context and therefore redundant. We investigate the relationship between redundancy and open construal by surveying 501 native Russian speakers who rated ... -

Prezidentskie vybory vs. vybory prezidenta: how to choose?
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-10-24)We present three case studies of the distribution of adjective + head noun (‘adjective’) vs. head noun + noun-genitive (‘genitive’) constructions based on datasets extracted from the Russian National Corpus. Each case study focuses on a different set of non-head referents: case study 1 examines non-heads that are country names (like ‘Norway’ as in <i>norvežskij</i> N vs. N <i>Norvegii</i>), case ... -
Overgeneralization and change: The role of acquisition in diachrony
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-11-30)Cournane (this volume) argues that child language acquisition is not only responsible for innovation in language change processes but that young learners are also responsible for the incrementation of the change in a language community. She sketches an inverted U-shaped model of incrementation (p. 143), where children’s initial overgeneralization of a linguistic phenomenon (input-divergence) is ... -
Overalls - Complex Document(s): a Never-ending Artistic Research Process
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2019)<p>I want to show that a pair of overalls can be a document in many senses, and thus demonstrate that the complementary relationship between materiality, sociality and conceptuality is a very complex relationship. <p>I will use an artistic approach to show the complex relationship and make an exposition of verbal text and images, consisting of 4 parts: <p>1.

Sámi (re)presentation in a differentiating museumscape: Revisiting the art-culture system
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2020-01-28)The article addresses how Sámi culture is presented by museums in Oslo. One of the findings is that the old binary of “art” and “ethnographica” is still common in this museumscape. This reflects the historical divide between the art museum showing “European” and “Norwegian” art, and the ethnographic museum showing the arts of “the rest”. It is argued that Sámi artists, works, themes, and practices ... -

Seeing from without, seeing from within: Aspectual differences between Spanish and Russian
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-07-10)Linguistic categories such as aspect are not identical across languages, and cross-linguistic differences can reveal differences in construal and conceptual categorization, which are key concepts in cognitive linguistics. SpanishRussian parallel data diverge in situations where Spanish uses a Perfective Past tense form, while the Russian translation equivalent is an Imperfective Past tense form. ... -
3rd person clitic combinations across Catalan varieties: Consequences of the nature of the dative clitic
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-04-12)This article argues that variation in how 3rd person clitic combinations are solved across Catalan varieties depends on the internal morphosyntactic shape of the dative clitic in each variety. We argue that the dative clitic in Valencian Catalan is an inherently case-marked pronominal form (KP), while non Valencian Catalan varieties, that contain a locative clitic, build the dative as a definite ... -
A comparison of Norwegian and Spanish L1 acquisition of possessive constructions
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-07-04)In language acquisition studies, there is a recurring debate regarding how to account for non-target-consistent utterances produced by young children. Anderssen and Westergaard (Lingua 120:2569–2588, 2010) study the acquisition of Norwegian possessives, which may be pre- or postnominal, and find that children overuse prenominal possessives, even though they are considerably less frequent than ... -
The Journalist as a Detective: The Media Insights and Critique in Post-1991 American, Russian and Swedish Crime Novels
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-09-26)Today it often happens that the protagonist in crime fiction is a journalist—for instance, in the globally spread sub-genre of Nordic noir. This article examines what readers can learn about journalism by comparing crime fiction (a widely popular genre fostering society critique) from Russia, Sweden, and USA. These countries with significantly different press traditions have in the post-1991 era ... -
The Bottleneck Hypothesis in L2 acquisition: L1 Norwegian learners’ knowledge of syntax and morphology in L2 English
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-02-28)The Bottleneck Hypothesis (Slabakova, 2008, 2013) proposes that acquiring properties of the functional morphology is the most challenging part of learning a second language. In the experiment presented here, the predictions of this hypothesis are tested in the second language (L2) English of Norwegian native speakers. Two constructions are investigated that do not match in English and Norwegian: One ... -
Forfatterens gjerninger. Upålitelig narrasjon i T. S. Eliots «Journey of the Magi»?
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-01-15)The article adresses the literary theoretical issue of unreliable narration in first-person fictional narratives. The theoretical discussion is prefaced by an interpretation of T.S. Eliot’s narrative poem “Journey of the Magi”. The interpretation concludes that the narrator, contrary to critical consensus, qualifies as unreliable according to Wayne Booth’s original definition. Having thus opened ...
