Send us a text This is the penultimate episode of the first season of The St. Magnus Street Tapes. "The body was found in the Old Cemetery in Lerwick by two young German tourists who were wandering around the Knab, just a bit turned around in the fog. They had wandered into the triangular piece of ground and read the headstones, many hard to decipher from the lichen. One of them remarked that reading old headstones gave them more confidence in the future. So many of the stones with names of those buried in the 18th and 19th century listed young children, so many children younger than 5, that they could believe the world was better now than before." This palm of the hand story is loosely based on material found in Lawrence Tulloch’s Shetland Folk Tales, especially the tale “The Fiddler and The Cows.” Details about Kirstie Caddel’s life have been amended and fictionalized from the account presented by Stephen Jennings from his 2019 Halloween talk given at the Archeology of Shetland Annual General Meeting, “The Many Ways to Die in Shetland.” The full text can be found on the Archeology of Shetland website.

Send us a text "There was both panic and resignation in his voice. He was so alone, and had been for what seemed like a long time, for twenty years tramping from one continent to another, looking for knolls, and only finding the standing stones of stories and folktales. The only hint of wonder he found in all of Shetland was in the small village of Brettafield, but he didn’t know why, and couldn’t find a point of crossing. His sojourn was almost over. After this he would return to Aotearoa. He had found friends and common cause among the patupaiarehe. Together, they would watch their worlds slowly fade." After 40 years of intermittent ethnographic research on the Shetland Islands, this podcast is an experiment in intimate ethnographic storytelling. Each episode of the "A-sides" follows a single theme. The same theme is explored in the "B-sides" episode but through contemporary fiction based on a mixture of themes and characters based on tales found in Lawrence Tulloch's Shetland Folk Tales This B-side episode explores the theme of disguise explored in episode 3 of The St. Magnus Street Tapes. This palm of the hand story is loosely based on material found in Lawrence Tulloch’s Shetland Folk Tales, especially the two tales “Midwife to the Trow” and “Kidnapped by the Trows.” This series has been made possible by the generous support of Arcadia University, especially FRANK AND EVELYN STEINBRUCKER The Saint Magnus Street Tapes are a Confabulated Communities Production.

When he stopped them from filching in stores with a gentle “Dey ken me here.” They were too quick of hand to be caught, but he had caught them regardless. Sirena had a sense that he had been around more than they thought. His was a kind of disguise too, the irascible crofter, boiler suit, wellies, and Fair Isle jumpers. Rasmie of Breegarshoull was in his way a shapeshifter."

Send us a text When I was being trained, if you can call it that, as an anthropologist years ago, there was a focus on kinship and family, however, constructed, because, in these relations, it was imagined, were conjured obligations of gift-giving, aid, and favors, what were called forms of reciprocity. From these networks of kin and reciprocity threads of trust were spun and extended, models for a spiderweb of relationship, of bonding and bridging capital, out of which community was made - a rosy picture. Over the past half-century, anthropology has now a darker view, The Saint Magnus Street Tapes are a Confabulated Communities Production. Produced, written, and narrated by Jonathan Church.

Send us a text This episode explores memory and confabulation. We gather each other up in forms of recollection and retrospection, finding a place for each other in collective remembrances. Sometimes we argue over the details, but less so the genre of the story. No, the genre is usually clear and seems to me most often a way of forgetting that it could have been otherwise.
