QR code
"Lapin muisteluksia" by Samuli Paulaharju is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the traditions, stories, and experiences of the Sami people and other inhabitants of Lapland, delving into their rich cultural heritage and the impact of migrations from southern Finland. The narrative provides insights into the lives of Lapland's indigenous communities and their interactions with newcomers over time. At the start of the book, Paulaharju introduces
the reader to his collection of stories gathered from his extensive travels through Lapland during the years 1920-1922. He recounts his interactions with the elderly Sami and other locals, who share their memories of ancient customs, beliefs, and historical events that shaped their lives amidst the vast, unspoiled wilderness. The opening emphasizes the urgency of preserving these narratives, as many of the storytellers are approaching the end of their lives. Paulaharju's intent is to compile these oral histories into a cohesive account that not only honors the past but also informs future generations about the significance of the people and culture of Lapland.
