Societas Philosophica Fennica. 2001. Trade paperback. Fine.. 218 p. Includes bibliography. . Communication and intelligibility form an interesting pair of concepts. On the one hand, it seems evident that understanding forms a prerequisite of any attempt to communicate. On the other hand, it may also be said that you cannot have understanding without communication, at least it may be said that making things intelligible to others or to oneself presupposes the ability to articulate expressions which basically are communicative. The essays published in this book may all be seen as comments on the notions of communication, understanding, and intelligibility as well as on the peculiar way in which these are interrelated. In particular, some problems of standard accounts of linguistic communication are treated, such as conflating communicative meaning with information and neglecting the use of metaphorical speech as a means of communication.

Finnish Academy of Science and Letters. 2009. Trade paperback. Very good.. 282 p. Includes: illustrations, bibliography. . Canon and Beyond explores the Russian ballet's first appearances in northern Europe and Germany in the early twentieth century. By looking beyond the canonical dance history and bringing in source material from the archives in northern Europe, the book offers a new insight into the history of Russian ballet in the West. This book focuses on the tours made by dancers from the Maryinsky Theatre from St. Petersburg to Helsinki, Stockholm, Copenhagen and Berlin in the early summers of 1908 1910. The star of the group was Anna Pavlova, for whom these performances were a stepping-stone to an international career.

Turku Suomen Keskiajan Arkeologian Seura. 2014. Hard cover. Fine.. 195 p. Includes: illustrations, maps, bibliography. . The main purpose of this study is to address, with reference to archaeological material, the complex of structures and remains at Papinniemi in Uukuniemi, East Finland and the community that occupied this site, and to place them as broadly as possible in their relevant cultural context. Papinniemi is an example of the overall major change in settlement in the mid-17th century that led to the formation of several archaeologically interesting deserted dwelling sites throughout Käkisalmi Karelia. Owing to its diversity and good degree of preservation, the Papinniemi complex can be regarded as particularly significant archaeological remains of the Orthodox cultural sphere in Finland. The archaeological excavations of the deserted village have concerned the remains of a dwelling and a church, the cemetery, a field-clearing cairn and the location where a coin hoard was deposited.
