Haluan erityisesti mainita kirjailija Anneli Kannon kiinnostavan luennon, joka k\u00e4sitteli py\u00f6veleit\u00e4 ja noitavainoja Suomessa. Py\u00f6velin hommaan oli kaksi tiet\u00e4: synty\u00e4 py\u00f6velin lapseksi tai hirttotuomiolta v\u00e4ltty\u00e4kseen ryhty\u00e4 py\u00f6veliksi. Py\u00f6velin teht\u00e4viin kuuluivat monenlaiset hommat mestauksesta, hirtt\u00e4misest\u00e4 ja teilaamisesta polttomerkitsemiseen, ruoskimiseen, k\u00e4den katkomiseen ja muihinkin, saastaisempiin t\u00f6ihin asti. N\u00e4it\u00e4 mestarismiehiksi kutsuttuja henkil\u00f6it\u00e4 samalla pel\u00e4ttiin ja vieroksuttiin, mutta my\u00f6s arvostettiin ja tarvittiin. Vaikka py\u00f6velilt\u00e4 oli ev\u00e4tty p\u00e4\u00e4sy oluttupiin ja kielletty asumasta kyl\u00e4n tai kaupungin porttien sis\u00e4puolella, silti ilman py\u00f6veli\u00e4 eiv\u00e4t yhteis\u00f6t voineet toimia. Py\u00f6veli pani toimeen tuomarin antaman\u00a0rangaistuksen ja sai siit\u00e4 varsin hyv\u00e4n korvauksen. Lis\u00e4\u00e4 py\u00f6veleist\u00e4 voitte lukea viime vuonna julkaistusta Anneli Kannon kirjasta Py\u00f6veli. Itse otan sen lukuun ihan hetimiten.<\/p>\n
Lopuksi viel\u00e4 saatte tuttuun tapaan muutamia kuvia. Itse markkinahumusta en kuvia ottanut (oli niin kiire taas kiert\u00e4\u00e4 kojuja, tanssia ja nypl\u00e4t\u00e4)<\/strong><\/span>, mutta markkina-alueella on eritt\u00e4in kiinnostava museo, jossa ehdin tanssimisen lomassa kuvatakin v\u00e4h\u00e4n. Lis\u00e4ksi kuvasin pikkuisen el\u00e4v\u00f6itt\u00e4ji\u00e4 leiriss\u00e4 sen j\u00e4lkeen kun markkinat olivat jo sulkeutuneet.<\/p>\n Isokyr\u00f6 1700’s market is over, but what a market it was! I didn’t know anything about the event untill couple years ago. Last year I visited the first time and we only stayed one day. Hubby was a bit bored, because he doesn’t really do living history nor re-enactment. So this year I decided to go on my own and stay the whole weekend. Weather was a bit manky. but I still wouldn’t change this experience to anything. I also finally managed to get some easy instant-lessons on bobbin lace. I was able to start my first bobbin lace project, simple narrow lace.<\/p>\n This particular 1700’s market has already become quite legendary, they have up to 160 stalls from all around Finland. All stalls provide handmade products, factory made items are not suitable for the nature of this event. You can buy anything from whole-roasted pork to bakery products, from essences to blacksmith products, sheep fleeces, clay pottery and carved wood bowls. There are\u00a0also some program like historically themed lecture, 1700’s dance by L’Amusette (including little ol’ me)<\/strong><\/span> and military shows, which unfortunately weren’t included this year, even though there were some military staff attending, wearing their appropriate clothes and gear.<\/p>\n I especially want to mention the interesting lecture by author Anneli Kanto. She lectured about executioners and witch hunt in Finland. There was two ways for the profession of executioner: to be born to the family of executioner or become one to avoid hanging. Executioner jobs varied from beheading to hanging, branding, whipping, cutting hands and other more filthier jobs. These people were feared and loathed, but also needed and valuated at the same time. Executioner was the person to execute the punishment, given by the judge. They were well paid for their much needed services. I actually bought Anneli Kanto’s new book Executioner, which I’m going to read asap. Unfortunately I don’t think it’s available in any other language than finnish.<\/p>\n Finally some photos as usual. I didn’t really take photos of the actual market, I was way too busy dancing, making bobbin lace and browsing the stalls, but there were also very interesting museum in the market area, where I had little time between the dances, to take couple photos. I also took couple photos at the camp after the market had closed for the night.<\/p>\n Maijalla satakunta nypyl\u00e4\u00e4, minulla vain 16. \/<\/strong><\/span> Kaverin lahjaksi saama todella vanha tyyny. \/<\/strong><\/span> \n Leiriss\u00e4 tanssattiin kun markkinav\u00e4ki oli h\u00e4ipynyt. \/<\/strong><\/span> \u00a0Sunnuntai oli niin sateinen (tauotta aamusta l\u00e4htien) ett\u00e4 piti k\u00e4yd\u00e4<\/strong><\/span> Visiittikorttialbumi telineess\u00e4\u00e4n. \/<\/strong><\/span>![\"inenglish\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/inenglish.gif\")
