Abstract
This article focuses on nomadic aspect of the Saami writer Sigbjørn Skåden’s works. The nomadic nature of his literary projects is seen from the perspective of modernity rather than as a manifestation of ethnicity. The author of the article points out certain nomadic features of Skåden’s writings, such as the shifting perspectives on the subject and the world, the polyglot character of the world created, the transgression of boundaries (including the boundaries of literary fiction), and the adoption of different cultural realities. Also present in his works are elements of aggression, provocation and ethical ambiguity.
