Negotiating Identities in Nordic Migrant Narratives

This edited volume takes an interdisciplinary approach to the question of how identities are negotiated and a sense of belonging established in a world of increasing migration and diversity. Transcending field-specific approaches and differences in foci, the authors investigate how identity is constructed and mediated in face-to-face interactions (in real time and fictional writing), how writers use narratives to express their reorientation and their identity negotiation in a new homeland, and how material objects convey layered meaning to identity and belonging. This engagement with spoken, written and material mediation of identity resonates with recent sociolinguistic investigations on how language is connected to and intersects with embodiment, materiality and time. The volume will be of interest to students and scholars of globalisation and migration studies, sociolinguistics and narrative analysis, anthropology and cultural studies.

Wilton

Throughout history, people of Wilton-Native Americans; early settlers of the hamlets of Wiltonville, Stiles Corner, and Gurn Spring; and current residents-all have shared a common love of this eastern New York State place, located just north of Saratoga Springs. Wilton captures the high points of the town's history, including the Battle of Wilton in February 1693, and Mount McGregor, famous for its grand hotel built in 1884 and for a cottage where, in 1885, President Ulysses S. Grant finished his memoirs shortly before his death. It also features the mineral spring water that was bottled and marketed in the early 1900s, and a farm with forty thousand turkeys.

Albert Sparks Jr. was born in 1929, the only child of Albert and Mamie Sparks. The Sparkses were good people, non-educated, and much influenced by the southern rural, fundamentalist Protestant Church. Two years later, in early Depression times, they built a small brick home in Bodenheimer, a community about 10 miles from Winston-Salem, NC. Albert Jr. was reared in that home-centered, church focused environment, and at age 10 he became a member of Royal Ambassadors, a boys organization at Bodenheimer Baptist. Still a member even now, his leader is a maudlin, highly emotional lady, a teary and true daughter of the Lord. And then, a fellow RA offered him the opportunity to become a paperboy. A ...
