5. 9. Röster från ingenmansland : En identitetsarkeologi i ett maritimt mellanrum

   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Maritime landscape archaeology; coastal societies; archipelago; maritime culture; fishing; hunting; trade; fisher-farmer; maritime interspace; contested space; interculturality; cultural identities; social history; actor geographies; cultural niche construction; maritime history; medieval history; Viking Age; Archaeology; Arkeologi; Historical Studies; Historiska studier;

   Sammanfattning : Archaeological investigations into late iron age and medieval coastal soci­eties in Sweden have been focusing on a maritime culture, a traditional coastal and island-dwelling fisher-farmer and activities centered on fishing in a long maritime tradition as well as a specific maritime identity and ha­bi­tus. By deconstructing commonly used concepts and by using primarily written sources, it is here shown that there is a need for putting this culture and its agents into perspective by opening up the history of the maritime interspace and let in previously overlooked or disregarded historical actors in the narrative field dominated by men and landed farmers, such as landless, powerless, strangers, foreig­ners and women.

   Författare :Myrto Veikou; Ingela Nilsson; Stephanos Efthyniadis; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Byzantine studies; spatial studies; Grekiska; Greek;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis explores literary spatialities, that is the notion of space and its agency in comprehending the deeper plot and meaning of two eleventh-century Byzantine hagiographical texts: the Life of St Lazaros from Mount Galesion, written by Gregory the Cellarer (Γρηγορίου του κελλαρίτη Βίος Λαζάρου τοῦ ἐν τῷ  Γαλησίῳ), and the Life of St Symeon the New Theologian, written by Niketas Stethatos (Νικήτα Στηθάτου Βίος Ἁγίου Συμεὼν τοῦ Νέου Θεολόγου). The study proposes a narratological inquiry of the broader meaning of ‘spatialities’ in Byzantine texts, which focuses on the employment of a ‘spatial’ language or ‘spatial’ narrative techniques and strategies.
