Opening Boundaries: Toward Finnish Heterolinational
Literatures is a part of our project, entitled "Toward a More
Inclusive and Comprehensive Finnish Literature," conducted
at the Finnish Literature Society (SKS) and the University of
Tampere during 2018-2019. This cross-cultural collection of
texts demonstrates the emergence and growth of new
heterogeneous, multicultural and multilingual literatures
within the Finnish literary canon. The anthology includes
some literary outputs by twenty-four immigrant authors,
living in Finland from sixteen different nationalities, and
their works in ten different languages make this collection
multilingual. However, for the sake of readability, the
translation of some of their works in Finnish or English has
been offered.
