The article discusses different types of discourses connected to folklore and the Kalevala in the Finnish language press in Soviet Karelia between the years 1928–1958. The discourses are labelled “Kalevala as a tradition-text”, “Ownerships of Kalevala as a tradition-text”, and “Tradition as a text from the past”, with certain types of subdiscourses. These interlaced discourses and the publications that embody them seem, on the one hand, to be reactions to discussions on the Kalevalathat were taking place in Finland and elsewhere in the West. On the other hand, they seem to spring from the historical and political circumstances of Soviet Karelia as a part of the Soviet Union.
