description | Abstract
In this article, I show how South Saami people and Saami matters
are represented in Mid-Norwegian regional newspapers from the 1880s
to 1990. My focus is on the South Saami as most previous research
on media representation has had a North Saami focus. The questions
asked are: To what extent and how are Saami matters
represented in the newspapers? How do the papers represent South
Saami identity, and to what extent and how are South Saami voices
represented?
The texts fall into four main categories: reindeer herding; Saami
politics; school and language; history and culture. Social Darwinist
or racial biological views are virtually non-existent in my material,
although quite common in late 19th and early 20th century topographical
literature about the Saami. There are examples of stereotyping and
othering, mostly before the 1960s, but in general, the regional
newspapers of my study take a respectful interest in Saami matters,
although Saami matters do not make up a substantial part of the
newspaper content until the 1970s. |
