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.
