Olin eilen varmaan ensimm\u00e4isi\u00e4, jotka ostivat upouuden Keskiajan avain-kirjan<\/a> Akateemisesta kirjakaupasta. Kyseess\u00e4 on\u00c2\u00a0 k\u00e4sikirja kaikista keskiajan tutkimuksesta kiinnostuneille. Erityisesti alaa opiskelevat ilahtunevat siit\u00e4 ett\u00e4 t\u00e4ll\u00e4inen metodologiaa k\u00e4sittelev\u00e4 kirja on saatavilla vihdoin my\u00f6s suomeksi. Mutta mielest\u00e4ni kirjasta on iloa my\u00f6s meille keskiaikaa harrasteleville. Sen avulla voi kasvattaa ymm\u00e4rryst\u00e4\u00e4n siit\u00e4 tieteenalasta jolle harrastuksemme rakentuu sek\u00e4 ruokkia omaa l\u00e4hdekriittisyytt\u00e4\u00e4n opettelemalla tieteenalan metodologiasta perusasiat.<\/p>\n

Kirjan kattama aihealue on tosiaan laaja<\/em>. Se k\u00e4sittelee peruskielioppeja t\u00e4rkeist\u00e4 kielist\u00e4, kirjallisuudentutkimusta, arkeologiaa, sinettien ja asiakirjojen tutkimusta…. vain muutamia mainitakseni. Kirjaa on helppo k\u00e4ytt\u00e4\u00e4 k\u00e4sikirjana hyvien sis\u00e4llysluettelon ja hakemiston ansiosta. Huomioiden kaiken t\u00e4m\u00e4n, 35 euron hinta ei ole ollenkaan paha.
\nL\u00f6yt\u00f6j\u00e4 tehd\u00e4\u00e4n muuallakin kuin Akateemisessa. Espoon Mankbyn kyl\u00e4n kaivauksilla<\/a> on kaivauduttu lempivuosisadalleni eli 1300-luvulle. L\u00f6ydetyt lasien sirpaleet ja hienostuneiden ruokailuveitsien l\u00f6ytyminen ovat yll\u00e4tt\u00e4neet tutkijat<\/a>. T\u00e4llaisia luksustuotteita (molemmat arvokasta tuontitavaraa) ei osattu olettaa l\u00f6ytyv\u00e4n maalaiskyl\u00e4st\u00e4. \u00c3\u201e\u00e4rimm\u00e4isen kiehtovaa! Mankbyl\u00e4isill\u00e4 talonpojilla oli ilmeisesti juhalp\u00f6ydiss\u00e4\u00e4n fiinimp\u00e4\u00e4 esineist\u00f6\u00e4 kuin on t\u00e4h\u00e4n asti ajateltu – ja\u00c2\u00a0 ilmeisesti toimivat kauppasuhteet Tallinnaan.<\/p>\n

Huoh, olisi ollut mainiota p\u00e4\u00e4st\u00e4 Mankbyhyn kaivamaan. Mutta aika, se on vaan niin kortilla ett\u00e4 viikon kaivuukurssi olisi ollut lomasta v\u00e4h\u00e4n liikaa.<\/p>\n

Mutta huomenna Turkuun! Porthanin puisto, osasto 11, V\u00e4in\u00f6l\u00e4n v\u00e4ki!

Keskiajan avain and other finds<\/strong><\/p>\n

I was probably among the first to pick up a copy of a brand new book called Keskiajan avain (Key to the middle ages) in the Academic bookstore. It’s a impressive introduction to the methodology of medieval studies – and it’s in finnish. (Which may be a disappointment to you.)<\/p>\n

The book is a great addition to the library of any student of medieval studies. However, I think it’s also a good purchase for any of us who enjoy the middle ages as a hobby. It’s good to get a basic understanding of the methodology on which the study that we base our dear hobby is based on. And it’s also always good to get to know your methods so you can also cultivate your ability to look at different sources with a critical eye.<\/p>\n

Interesting finds have also been made outside the bookstores. In Espoo, the excavations of a medieval village called Mankby have dug deeper and they have dug into my favourite century, the 14th! They have excavated glass shards as well as remains of eating knives, both of which were totally unexpected in a medieval finnish rural village. I find this extremely fascinating. It seems the peasants had much finer items in their posession – as well as an active trade relation with nearby Tallinn.<\/p>\n

It would have been really great to get to go to Mankby to excavate, but time is unfortunately too limited of a resource. Bummer.<\/p>\n

But tomorrow if Friday and I’ll be off to Turku Medieval Market!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
