CONTEXT HAUKSBOK
Normally when an artifact today visible shown at a museum somewhere in the
world has the context told from where it was found or from where it's
supposed to have been found. Of course there are other examples then
Hauksbok, cases where we also knows the background from it was made up to
the artifact we see today. Let be ancient handwritten documents, medieval
juvelery or remains of houses in the ground. The usual way should then be to
describe either the context for the artifacts existing where it is today,
following the way backwards till it was made, created or formed, or starting
by describing the situation as known for the microlevel were the artifact
origin from. In some cases the microlevel is the from previous studies
relatively well researched level and the macrolevel the level where most
been assumed from several comparative microlevelstudies of surrounding
microsocieties alternatively interactionstudies between such.
These type of comparative studies might have been done in subject History,
Religion, Cultural Geography, Anthropology, Archaeology, Economy or
Sociology. To name a few disciplines where this been done especially in the
last 50 years. While studying such reports and or reading about them in
articles one factor almost always seems to have been forgotten. That is the
impact of the interactive analyse results due to the analysing scientist
prejudges as soon as we leave the subject Sociology behind. If the impact
can and could be judged essential for the study or not can hardly be
calculated without at least a relatively well documented personal
clarification with or without scientistic strict rules and regulations from
the philosophic argumentation field. While this part in present article to
discussiongroups on net is omitted, it's included in the more strict
scholarly article to be presented elsewhere. With these short words that
question is put aside for a context presentation based on two elements:
Context for person behind the text. In other word it's first owner and
part-writer behind the text. On the same time the context for the society
situation and time in which the text was written down as always has an
importance of its own. Thus the other context situation described and
discussed will involve the situation in 14th century Norway in regards to
the importance of the Vinland and Greenland question in those days.
