Kulttuurihistorian tutkimus

Kulttuurihistoriallisesti suuntautunutta tutkimusta tehdään monilla humanistisen tutkimuksen aloilla. Tieteenalasta riippumatta humanistit etsivät vastauksia kysymyksiin, mitä on ihmisyys, kulttuuri, historia, yhteiskunta, ja miten tämä kaikki ilmenee ihmisten toiminnassa ja siitä syntyvissä lähteissä. Tässä teoksessa monitieteisyys ja tieteenalojen välinen vuorovaikutus toteutuvat monisyisesti. Kulttuurihistorian tutkimus: Lähteistä menetelmiin ja tulkintaan pureutuu tutkimusprosessiin. Sen artikkelit esittävät havainnollisesti menetelmien yhteyden ja soveltamisen lähdeaineistoihin sekä osoittavat, miten menetelmän ohjaama lähdeanalyysi tekee mahdolliseksi tutkimuskysymyksiin vastaamisen. Kirjassa kootaan monipuolisesti yhteen tämänhetkistä kulttuurihistoriallista tutkimusta ja pohditaan, millaisia ovat humanistisen tutkimuksen ajankohtaiset kysymykset 2020-luvulla.

Grammatical Replication and Borrowability in Language Contact

The volume presents new insights into two basic theoretical issues hotly debated in recent work on grammaticalization and language contact: grammatical replication and grammatical borrowability. The key issues are: How can grammatical replication be distinguished from other, superficially similar processes of contact-induced linguistic change, and under what conditions does it take place? Are there grammatical morphemes or constructions that are more easily borrowed than others, and how can language contact account for areal biases in the borrowing (vs. calquing) of grammatical formatives? The book is a major contribution to the ongoing theoretical discussion concerning the relationship between grammaticalization and language contact on a broad empirical basis.

Postcolonial Film: History, Empire, Resistance examines films of the later twentieth and early twenty-first centuries from postcolonial countries around the globe. In the mid twentieth century, the political reality of resistance and decolonization lead to the creation of dozens of new states, forming a backdrop to films of that period. Towards the century’s end and at the dawn of the new millennium, film continues to form a site for interrogating colonization and decolonization, though against a backdrop that is now more neo-colonial than colonial and more culturally imperial than imperial. This volume explores how individual films emerged from and commented on postcolonial spaces and the building and breaking down of the European empire. Each chapter is a case study examining how a particular film from a postcolonial nation emerges from and reflects that nation’s unique postcolonial situation. This analysis of one nation’s struggle with its coloniality allows each essay to investigate just what it means to be postcolonial.
