“…The internet meme (or image macro) is a cultural unit disseminated through social media via creative imitation (Milner 2016;Shifman 2014). The spontaneity of the meme and its immediate distribution, as well as the active position of the audience in shaping its messages, may explain its use as a vehicle for social criticism and resistance (Blank 2009;Ellis 2003;Kelley 2020;Marcus and Singer 2017). Moreover, the anonymity of this narrative form and its mediated transmission usually without any supervision or censorship, accounts for its use in conveying outrageous and even offensive messages (Blank 2009: 9;Ellis 2003: 38, 41, 55-56;Marcus and Singer 2017: 351-353).…”

“…Folklorist Trevor J. Blank (2014) theorises the internet as an important area of expressive vernacular culture, an important analytical venue for folklorists, and sets the agenda for digital folklore research. He claims that the recurrence and emergence of new narrative variations are inevitable in internet folklore, because various elements of folk culture are created and transmitted online.…”

“…Jälkimmäisellä on vahva sidos historiantutkimuksen mentaliteetti-ja mikrohistorialliseen tutkimusotteeseen, joka irrottautui vanhan kulttuurihistorian elitismistä ja sosiaali-ja taloushistorian makrotasoa ja tilastollista analyysia korostaneesta näkökulmasta (Peltonen 1992;Peltonen 1999;Portelli 2000).
