Abstract | This article follows a story played out by children at a Sámi early childhood centre in north Sweden. It does so by reflecting on the children's story as a form of Critical Indigenous Philosophy. In particular it explores what it could mean for a child to be a philosopher in a Sámi context by developing the concept of "jurddavázzi," or thought herder, in conversation with Wittgenstein's method of 'leading', and Cavell's of 'shepherding', 'words back from their metaphysical to their everyday use'. The children's play story--involving themes of death, struggles with natural surroundings, and interconnectivity through seeing life in nature--is read in relation to questions about traditional stories raised in the poetry of the Sámi poet, artist and philosopher, Nils-Aslak Valkeapää, or Áillohaš. The article ends by discussing how the children's invitation to follow their story can be seen as a decolonizing pedagogical gesture of the child that requires a particular kind of philosophical listening by the teacher or adult. The article is in its style an attempt to demonstrate a form of philosophical storytelling the children are engaged in. (As Provided). |
