Tektonski premiki v didaktiki književnosti: ob jubileju Bože Krakar Vogel
Authors: Virk Tomo
Published: September 2024

The article focuses on the work of Boža Krakar Vogel, the founder of Slovenian didactics of literature in its modern, theoretically well-supported form. It briefly outlines the broad range of her professional engagement in this area, focusing in particular detail on her efforts to improve the teaching of literature in grammar schools. The basic premise of these efforts is the principle of empathic close reading, which provides access to the specifics of literature, in conjunction with the contextualisation of literary phenomena.
Jezikoslovni pogled na trpnik v zgodovini slovenskega jezika
Authors: Leskovec Mojca
Published: September 2024

The article explores the use of the passive voice in the Slovenian language, which is characterised by a longstanding tradition of rejection. This began with Vodnik and Šmigoc and escalated with Metelko, Janežič and the first grammar book by Breznik. The rejection of the passive voice subsequently ceased in Breznik’s last grammar book and in grammar books by the Three authors, but it continued at least partially in the contemporary Slovenian grammar book, which states that in technical, popular and scientific texts it is not good to use the passive voice too often. Concerning the question of the passive voice, an analysis of grammar and orthography books as well as linguistic discussions indicated four periods of treatment in the history of the Slovenian language. An examination of textbooks and language discussion forums and an analysis of newspaper texts showed that in each of these periods the prescribed norm was passed to users and applied in practice.
Slovenske pesmi o veliki vojni iz dveh tematskih izborov
Authors: Žerjal Pavlin Vita
Published: September 2024

The two thematic collections examined offer an interesting overview of Slovenian Poetry inspired by World War I. Clouds are Red (Oblaki so rudeči) published in 1988, seventy years after the end of the war, is a collection of poems edited by Janez Povše. Landscape of War (V vojni pokrajini) was published in 2014 by Marjeta Žebovec on the occasion of the Great War Centenary. Poems from both collections highlight various war motifs and contemplations, ranging from combat, patriotism and even dynasties, to explicit earnestness, and thus oppose the censorship and pressure exerted over Slovenian intellectuals by the Austrian authorities. Verses are uttered by first-person speakers who had engaged in war in different ways. There are recurrent ideological confrontations, as well as insights into peoples’ destinies affected by war. Due to the considerable age differences between the authors of the poems, we also notice a range of poetic styles: neo-romantic, expressionist and even futuristic, as well as more traditional poetic expressions typical of 19th century Slovenian Poetry.
Ujemanje med povedkom in osebkom v kopulativnih stavkih
Authors: Ribič Janja
Published: September 2024

The article discusses subject-verb agreement in copulative clauses with the following structure: [nominal phrase] – [verb ‘to be’] – [nominal phrase]. Subject-verb agreement is not clearly defined in such cases in Slovene. Usage shows that the copula sometimes agrees with the subject complement, but at other times with the subject. There are few theories regarding this linguistic problem, hence the problem remains unresolved. The article briefly discusses the existing theories and attempts to determine an agreement rule based on examples found in the Slovene corpus Gigafida.
Bivanjsko nelagodje žensk kot tematsko osišče pripovedne proze Jasne Jurečič
Authors: Smotlak Maja
Published: September 2024

Jasna Jurečič (1955–2014) was a writer who moved from her hometown of Zadar to Ljubljana, and from there to Sales near Trieste, where she conceived and realised her literary works. For this reason, she is legitimately considered to be a Slovenian author from Italy as well as a contemporary Slovenian female author. Her writing pivots around women and their feeling of existential unease, which can have various forms, origins and responses. Through an analysis of these elements, the article presents an overview of all of Jasna Jurečič’s published prose. It is the first presentation of this author, who was unable to establish herself fully in the Slovenian literary world because of her premature death. Her prose has not previously been the subject of a comprehensive review and thorough research within the context of Slovenian literary studies.
Sodobna poezija Beneške Slovenije: model angažiranega pesništva med Slovenci v Italiji
Authors: Bandelj David
Published: September 2024

The paper tries to show the differences between the concepts of engaged poetry developed by generations of poets in Venetian Slovenia. Due to their different historical and political situations, these poets have developed a very modern model of engaged poetry, connected to their relation to “the Other”. This model is of great interest, especially due to the use of a dialectal base.
Beneško gledališče
Authors: Kravos Bogomila
Published: September 2024

The article offers some initial thoughts about theatrical activities in the region of the Veneto valleys, i.e., the Alta Val Torre Valley, the Nadiža Valley and Resia, especially those activities that used to join these regions and that are in need of thorough examination. The archival materials should be supplemented by personal testimonies and detailed descriptions of how people received the most popular performances. A thorough analysis of the achievements and reception of the theatrical performances presents a unique opportunity to demonstrate how the peculiar dramatic expression of the troupe came about, and where the key actors found the inspiration to mix the bitter facts of existence with humour. The same analysis should examine how different ways of perception merge into a single theatrical expression that displays the spirit of the time and space. Such comprehensive research of each step in the history of the Veneto Theatre will reveal the axes around which its growth revolved and which connect the region of Veneto with the region of the Isonzo Valley.
Sodobne spremembe didaskalij: primer besedil Simone Semenič, Jezik in slovstvo
Authors: Zajc Ivana
Published: September 2024

The article presents the changed role of stage directions in contemporary Slovenian drama in the case of the texts of Simona Semenič. New phenomena in stage directions are based on the traditional characteristics of stage directions, which are subverted or strongly emphasised. The stage directions of Simona Semenič emphasise the narrative function of traditional stage directions. The bearer of this feature can be a character who gives stage directions or the dramatic author, in which case the author’s comment is highlighted in the text, thus guiding the reader’s interpretation. The article analyses the role of stage directions in framing the dramatic work and in the formation of metadrama.
O slovenskem jeziku v literarnozgodovinskih razpravah Jožeta Koruze v Jeziku in slovstvu
Authors: Orel Irena
Published: September 2024

The article begins with a brief reminiscence of professor and mentor Jože Koruza and focuses on a presentation of the 14 articles from the earlier literature, which also include linguistic topics, published in the journal Jezik in slovstvo between 1972 and 1983. The contributions synthetically, analytically or thematically highlight the history of all three literary genres and different text types in all periods: from the Old Church Slavonic tradition (a Slovenian Glagolitic document from the 15th century), Slovenian prayer forms in reviving the thesis of the written tradition in the Middle Ages, official and legal texts from the 16th century onwards, the beginnings of secular poetry, Christmas carols, religious plays, and art poetry (Vodnik, Stanič) and secular drama (Dev, Linhart, Drabosnjak, Levstik) in the 18th and 19th centuries. In these works, language is defined depending on its application and use in a variety of social classes, functions, literary genres or types, and as literary expression with the typical syntactic, lexical and stylistic features of the standard language and of dialects.
Koroško bukovništvo skozi čas
Authors: Maurer-Lausegger Herta
Published: September 2024

The phenomenon of Carinthian popular style writings, which is of literary and sociological interest, was known above all in the Carinthian-Upper Carniolan-Styrian regions. The authors were simple people, usually either farmers or craftsman, who spread popular texts with religious, apocryphal and mystic content written in a Slovenian regional substandard. In the copying phase, they based their writings on protestant texts (from the 16th century onwards). This was followed by a translating phase (from German, mid 18th century) and crowned by the so-called classic bukovništvo (towards the end of the 18th century). The language in these texts, which appear in numerous printed and manuscript versions, is diverse and inconsistent. This is illustrated by passages from the Carinthian Duhovna bramba, a compilation of apocryphal prayer and ancient blessing formulas.
Oris J. L. Schönlebna kot govornika in pridigarja
Authors: Deželak Trojar Monika
Published: September 2024

The article presents Johann Ludwig Schönleben (1618–1681) as an orator and preacher, and addresses his rhetorical activity through three main periods. From his early rhetorical period, nine speeches have been preserved as well as his odes to Habsburg rulers, who proved to be important venerators of the Virgin Mary. During his most active period, Schönleben prepared four collections of sermons in German and Latin for publication, and three of his speeches were printed independently. If his manuscript sermons had also been preserved, his oeuvre would have included five additional collections. Towards the end of his life, Schönleben only appeared in the role of an occasional preacher; a preacher’s manual with allegories was printed posthumously. The conclusion outlines the main characteristics of his sermons and shows that Schönleben clung to the traditional Jesuit ecclesiastical rhetoric of the post-Tridentine period, even though his personal preaching style also displayed certain features of contemporary Baroque rhetorical elements.
H književnosti enega jezika
Authors: Grdina Igor
Published: September 2024

The medieval feudal tripartite social order of clerics, warriors, and farmers and craftsmen also produced language division into Latin, German and Slovenian. The main cohesive means became the Christian religion, which, due to the universality of the salvific message, demanded the use of Slovenian in sermons, sacrament of penance and basic prayers, and thus (co-)shaped language communities. The article shows the spread of spoken and written Slovenian in all three orders and for all uses from the Middle Ages, through the Reformation, to the Enlightenment circle of Zois and Pohlin.
Estonska učna ura o bralni pismenosti za Slovenijo
Authors: Saksida Igor
Published: September 2024

After delineating the results of Slovenian students in the international PISA survey, the article presents a case study of the excellent reading literacy achievements of Estonian students. The Estonian education system takes into consideration other successful education systems: it emphasises a culture of work and high achievements, active teaching and learning methods, the responsibility of all stakeholders (especially teachers), and international benchmarking. In the final part of the article, several recommendations are proposed for Slovenia: it should strengthen school discipline and the authority of the teacher as a reading model, advocating high expectations, equity and quality based on accountability and responsibility (internal and external evaluation related to external assessment); there should also be more pronounced individualisation and differentiation of teaching (especially with more attention devoted to the gifted) and the development of ambitious reading strategies within all subjects, interlaced with diverse reading motivation factors.
Učitelji o jezikovnih vprašanjih pri vključevanju učencev priseljencev v slovenski vzgojno-izobraževalni sistem
Authors: Budinoska Ines
Published: September 2024

The paper presents the findings of research conducted within my doctoral studies, which are also part of my doctoral dissertation (entitled: Linguistic integration of immigrants’ children in Slovenian basic school, 2014). One of the previous issues (58/2) presented the results regarding teachers’ strategies for the inclusion of immigrant pupils in classes, while the present paper focuses on the part of research dedicated to the positions of teachers on language issues related to the inclusion of immigrant children in the Slovenian education system. This part of the research was thus focused on teachers’ attitudes towards the use of different languages during the inclusion of immigrant children in classes, and on the use, learning and teaching of the immigrant children’s mother tongue.
Tema umetnosti in umetnika v romanih Plamenice in solze Andreja Blatnika in Dvanajst krogov Jurija Andruhoviča
Authors: Vollmaier Lubej Janja
Published: September 2024

The article presents the theme of art and the artist in postmodernism, as applied to their changing role in a secularised, capitalist, consumer society. Two postmodern novels by significant authors, Blatnik’s Torches and Tears and Andrukhovych’s Twelve Circles, are used to demonstrate and illustrate some of the modifications discussed in a first part of the article.
Kam je namenjena poljščina?
Authors: Ostromęcka-Frączak Bożena
Published: September 2024

The article presents the results of the most recent research of Polish language and, combined with the author’s own findings, summarises the changes in contemporary Polish language. The emphasis is on new emerging research fields: the functioning of Polish outside Poland, Polish as a foreign/second language, and teaching Polish as a foreign language. In a presentation of how the extralinguistic reality influences language, the author mainly focuses on vocabulary changes, including the rapid increase in the number of neologisms and neosemanticisms. These new lexical items often perform an expressive function, becoming a source of language brutalisation and vulgarisation, a process that is related to the simplification of social relations. The author highlights the reassessment of vocabulary formerly associated only with colloquial language, sociolects or dialects. In her opinion, the observed increase in the number of loanwords from English (especially American English) – although worrying – seems to be a temporary trend that the Polish language will overcome, just as it did in the past. However, she regards shifts in the stylistic system as a potential danger.
Reanimacija poljske poezije
Authors: Cudak Romuald
Published: September 2024

The sketch outlines contemporary tendencies in Polish poetry, which can be subsumed under global trends connecting poetry with certain features of modern culture: iconicity and secondary orality. The author identifies three forms of the visualisation and oralisation of a poetic text: extreme exploitation of material components of print (visual poetry), forsaking the written word for telewriting and image (cyber poetry, video poetry), and a melancholic attempt to return to the oral word as the substance of poetry (slam poetry, rap). The author views these tendencies as an attempt to revitalise poetry, which became fossilised in the form of “poetry for reading” and as such ceased reaching its audience.
Renesansa in humanizem v zahodnoslovanskih književnostih: primerjalna bilanca in izgledi
Authors: Malura Jan
Published: September 2024

Humanism in Western Slavonic literature manifests itself in a number of shared aspects, conditioned by the confluence of a similar spectrum of historical cultural streams, which came about within the territory of Poland, the Czech Lands and Upper Hungary (Catholics vs. Protestants, exclusive vs. plebeian art, etc.). The production of Latin humanists shared the greatest affinities, especially in the first development phase, when Latin poetry was the sphere of a narrow, cosmopolitan, intellectual elite. There are both similarities and differences in the area of literature in the vernacular languages, reflecting the influence of distinct social-cultural situations in particular countries, as well as a different genre system and foreign orientation. Polish literature displays the most direct links with the Italian Renaissance centre and is firmly associated with the aristocratic elite. These differences are also apparent in Czech-Polish literary contacts, which are rich but occasionally experience mutual dissonance.
Nova dinamika slovenskega prevajanja iz poljske književnosti v zadnjih desetletjih
Authors: Jež Niko
Published: September 2024

At the end of the 2000s and in the early 2010s, a new dynamic is noticeable in shaping the image of Polish literature, as created in the Slovenian cultural consciousness by the translation repertoires of publishers and the motivation of translators. The new rhythm in the process of contemporary studies of Polish literature, the signs of which are evident as early as in the 1990s, is due to the changed circumstances in the Slovenian book market and the establishment of a young generation of translators, but it is probably also an expression of new orientations in Slovenian culture. New translations have improved the image of the early modernist formation of Polish literature, while, with the rise of postmodernism and recent trends, these translations are beginning to follow current evolutionary processes. The paradigm of the modern subject, as offered by Polish literature in recent decades, is entering the Slovenian cultural space as an alternative to the contemporary Central European model, to which both the source and the target cultures belong.
Od lektorata do študijske smeri – ob deseti obletnici ustanovitve bohemistike, polonistike in slovakistike na Filozofski fakulteti v Ljubljani
Authors: Wtorkowska Maria
Published: September 2024

The article presents the development of language courses in Czech, Polish and Slovak into study programmes at the Ljubljana Faculty of Arts. In association with the embassies of the Czech Republic, the Republic of Poland and the Slovak Republic, the unit for Western-Slavic Philology of the Department of Slavistics organised the international professional symposium West Slavic Languages in Time and Society – Developmental Visions on the tenth anniversary of the establishment of Bohemistics, Polonistics and Slovak studies at the Ljubljana Faculty of Arts. The first decade of Czech, Polish and Slovak study programmes, which upgraded the offer of teaching content of Slavistics in Ljubljana in 2004, triggered reflection on and critical analysis of the state of studies and research in this field, which was of fundamental importance to the formation of cultural patterns in Slovenia in previous centuries. Due to the division into blocks and the “abduction of Central Europe” after the Second World War, this field was abandoned in Slovenia and was eliminated from the social and cultural life of Slovenians for more than half of century.
Polonica Toneta Pretnarja
Authors: Ostromęcka-Frączak Bożena
Published: September 2024

The article presents a portrait of Tone Pretnar, a Slovene Slavic and Polish philologist, primarily discussing his works in the field of Polish studies. Pretnar worked at universities in Ljubljana, Graz, Warsaw, Krakow and Katowice. His works consist of scholarly studies, literary and cultural commentaries, numerous translations and original poetry. His research focuses mostly on the comparative Slavic theory of verse and metre in translation, while his second area of interest was Polish-Slovene literary relations and their history. Pretnar was the greatest Polish literary translator of his generation in Slovenia, having translated over 100 Polish poets and almost 12,200 lines of poetry. With Bożena Ostromęcka-Frączak, he published the first ever Slovene-Polish dictionary (Ljubljana 1996). In light of his achievements, his name was included in the “Słownik badaczy literatury polskiej” (“The Dictionary of Polish Literature Researchers”; ed. J. Starnawski, vol. IV, Łódź 2001).
Toneta Pretnarja prevod sonetov Jana Nepomucena Kamińskega
Authors: Šurla Andrej
Published: September 2024

In the first half of the nineteenth century, Jan Nepomucan Kamiński was an important figure in Polish cultural life in Lvov. He is, however, less known as a poet. Tone Pretnar’s decision to translate fourteen of Kamiński’s sonnets into Slovene came about primarily due to his personal links with Matija Čop. His translations are probably aesthetically more powerful than the original; they are marked by a subtle and refined use of elements of the language of France Prešeren, whereby the translator succeeds in instilling into his rendering in the Slovenian language a sense of the eraand the meta-literary environment in which the sonnets came into being in their original form.
O členkih, zlasti o njihovih razločevalnih lastnostih: poudarjen slovarski vidik
Authors: Krvina Domen , Žele Andreja
Published: September 2024

Particles, as opposed to adverbs (objective expression of circumstances), always reflect the subjective evaluation of the speaker/author of the text; therefore, their meaning – as far as the accuracy and completeness of lexicographic description is concerned – is somewhat difficult to capture fully. For a transition from adverbs to particles to take place, a subjective approach to assessment/evaluation is a necessary prerequisite. This transition is characteristic of de-adjectival adverbs designating a relative property or evaluation. Compared to interjections (modifiers of the entire sentence), particles are inevitably grammatically-semantically bound to individual sentence elements, functioning as modifiers within the sentence. The content of both particles and interjections is a speech act rendering them the role of function words, which in turn means they are best described by so-called functional dictionary definitions. In interjections, their primary meaning of general mood expression can, through predicative responsiveness, be converted and narrowed into a particle one, quite commonly expressing negative attitude. In words that are solely particles, the dictionary entry frequently reflects the swapping of the prevailing modality role (expressing the speaker’s attitude towards the reported text) with a text-connecting role. In the majority of cases, the relationship between the use of a particular word as a conjunction and as a particle calls for an independent dictionary description of two (linked) homonyms, with the prevailing modality having its own particle entry.
Kolokacije v korpusu Šolar
Authors: Rozman Tadeja , Arhar Holdt Špela , Pollak Senja , Kosem Iztok
Published: September 2024

The paper investigates the possibilities of using the developmental Šolar corpus for determining various ways in which collocations are acquired in Slovenian, and considers potential applications of the findings for teaching Slovenian as L1. Using the combinations adjective + noun and noun + noun, we tested two methods: a) quantitative comparative analysis of the Šolar corpus and the Kres corpus was used to determine similarities and differences in collocation use in school essays and general written Slovenian; b) qualitative analysis of teacher corrections was made to determine the collocations that cause difficulties among students. The results show a number of atypical uses of collocations by students – uses that are detected by teachers only to a certain extent – and confirm the usefulness of a corpus-based approach in language acquisition.
Ocenjevanje skladenjskih napak v šolskem eseju
Authors: Velikonja Kolar Irena
Published: September 2024

The article deals with syntax in school essays, focusing mainly on certain difficulties in syntax assessment. The first part presents the definition of syntactic mistakes according to the normative grammar. Syntactic structures that are not normatively incorrect but only (potentially) less appropriate are not defined as mistakes. The analysis of assessment shows that the distinction between actual mistakes and less appropriate forms is unclear, and that examiners’ decisions on problematic syntactic forms are not unanimous. The last part of the paper presents a proposal for syntax assessment in the school essay.
Slovenščina in nemščina kontrastivno: besedni red na osnovi kontrastivnega modela
Authors: Crnkovič Jana
Published: September 2024

The article discusses word order in German and Slovenian contrastively, focusing on the rules of fixed word order and the possibility of free word order in sentences. In German, verb forms create the sentence frame, which is the basic building template, and simultaneously give rise to the typical characteristic of German sentences. Such frames are atypical in Slovenian. Selected sentences in both languages were analysed on the basis of the contrastive model developed by A. Wöllstein. The article presents the differences and similarities of word order in simple sentences in both languages, while also providing suggestions on how to adjust the model to the Slovenian language.
Skladnja v frazeologiji med sistemom in rabo
Authors: Kržišnik Erika
Published: September 2024

Slovenian phraseology is relatively well researched from the lexicological perspective, but has been studied much less in terms of syntax. The topic of the present contribution is syntactic transformations ranging from transformations of the accusative into the genitive in negative sentences and the introduction of relative constructions to instances of passivisation and nominalisation. The topic is not new to Slovenian linguistics, having been first treated from the point of view of a native speaker/linguist in Kržišnik 1994. This was followed by a consensual survey of native speakers in which the transformations and their realisations were verified in the Fida corpus by Kržišnik (2005); subsequently, their usage was verified in the FidaPLUS corpus by Gantar (2007). For the purposes of the present contribution, a comparison was made with the usage in the Gigafida corpus. The latter mainly comprises journalistic texts, but 16% of its content is online texts. Thus, in addition to the overlap between native-speaker intuition and the use of idioms related to corpus type (size, temporal dimension, etc.), it is possible to observe the relationship between the use of idioms as determined by functional variation and their syntactic transformations.
Ona s koso. Nekateri vidiki dojemanja smrti in njihova prisotnost v slovenski in slovaški frazeologiji
Authors: Kmecová Svetlana , Vojtech Poklač Saša
Published: September 2024

People have always been interested in the relation between life and death and their continuity. Various religions and sciences have different opinions on the subject. As the issue of death is as old as humankind itself, contemporary languages feature various ideas about death as a supernatural being, with ancient concepts overlapping with more recent ones. Both Slovenian and Slovak contain well-preserved traces of an anthropomorphic perception of death, i.e., death as a female creature, but zoomorphic and other images of death are known, as well. The present paper seeks to answer the question of how the aforementioned ideas are reflected in both of the languages in question, especially in their phraseologies.
Etična sinteza v Cankarjevih političnih spisih
Authors: Vitez Primož
Published: September 2024

The literary writings of Ivan Cankar are of such thematic and generic complexity that they do not permit a simplistic analysis with regard to traditional theoretical and historical taxonomies. Although the majority of his texts are written in prose, his literary style maintains a fundamental relationship with the poetic basis of his writing. This is true not only of the texts that are normally read as “pure literature”, but also of those engaged in polemics with the predominant Slovenian cultural politics of his time. The same complexity is observed in his literary approaches to political and ontological themes, which cannot be effectively analysed by partial ideological interpretations. Cankar’s socialism is just as imbued with rebellion as his Christian idealism. Both ethical principles are synthesised and essentially applied within the original aesthetic gestures by which Cankar tried to “purify and rejuvenate” Slovenian political thinking.
Izhodišča in posledice komunikacijskega in tradicionalnega načrtovanja pouka književnosti
Authors: Saksida Igor
Published: September 2024

Communicative literature teaching in primary school is derived from a concept of reading competence that interlaces motivational factors, reading strategies and knowledge of the basic elements of literature as a system. Literature is an autonomous mode of expression and cannot be subordinated to other fields. Instruction is planned on the basis of literary theory, while also taking into account the reader and the relevance of the text for him/her. The principle of the continuity of school interpretation is consistently applied.
Slovenska zemljepisna imena v italijanskih besedilih
Authors: Mikolič Južnič Tamara
Published: September 2024

The paper sheds light on some questions regarding the presence of Slovenian toponyms in Italian texts, both with regard to their use in original Italian texts and in translations from Slovenian. Specifically, the discussion is centred on the various problems associated with the translation of toponyms and their consequent different translations. The analysis takes into account some historical and ideological facts associated with the use of Slovenian toponyms in Italian, their role from the point of view of grammar in Italian texts, and the frequency of certain forms in the target language.
Ljudske pravljice v osnovni šoli
Authors: Haramija Dragica
Published: September 2024

The paper presents folk fairy tales, focusing on the theoretical starting points of this literary form (structure, basic motivic-thematic elements), while also considering the operational goals of the school national curriculum for Slovenian (Učni načrt Slovenščina, 2018). From the point of view of (children’s) literary studies, the elements of the fairy tale that pupils should be able recognise by the end of the second educational cycle are presented in greater detail: literary persons (real, fairytale); literary time and space (indefinite time and space, as they are mentioned only indirectly in fairy tales); commandments, prohibitions and prophecies (as tests); magical events (in magical fairy tales); and typical structure (usually with a happy ending). These elements (UNS 2018) are mostly illustrated with examples from Slovenian folk fairy tales, which are an important part of the national cultural heritage.
Dialog med avtorjem in naslovnikom v pridigi Primoža Trubarja
Authors: Bizjak Končar Aleksandra
Published: September 2024

Trubar’s sermon Sermo de vocabulo fidei in the Cathesismus from 1550 (1935: 202–243) has an important position in Slovenian literary history, as it is the first preserved sermon created by a Slovenian author explicitly labelled as a sermon. The article examines the dialogic aspects of Trubar’s sermon by making explicit the relations between the author and his audience. By applying Cloran’s method of rhetorical analysis (1994), it is possible to identify the typical interactional rhetorical units referring to the participants of the text: the author and the listener. The focus of the analysis of Trubar’s sermon is a detailed account of rhetorical units that signify (1) the author’s and listener’s textual presence, and (2) the author’s engagement of the listener. With these linguistic devices, a strong interactional link is created between Trubar/the preacher and the silent audience.
Otroška radijska igra: primer analize govora
Authors: Maver Manica
Published: September 2024

The main part of the article presents an analysis of a short extract of a recorded radio drama for children. The introduction points out that the genre of radio drama is neglected by academic and critical circles, probably due to the lack of specific scholarly tools for its analysis and evaluation. The article then illustrates all of the sound elements that help create audio drama: voices, speech, music, sound effects and silence. Finally, a concrete example of speech analysis in radio drama is presented: the example chosen is an extract from the children’s play Bogdanova zmaga (Bogdan’s Victory) produced by Radijski oder (Radio Stage) for Radio Trst A (a Slovenian radio station in Trieste). The analysis attempts to present a tool for a more scientific and objective study of this artform.
Literarna zmožnost kultiviranega bralca in Evropski literarni okvir
Authors: Zajc Ivana
Published: September 2024

The article presents the implicit factors that influence the form of literary competence in a particular community and synthesises its basic components. The European Literary Framework (2012) describes the development of this competence in secondary education and proposes literary texts for each stage of its development. The article examines which components of literary competence are included in the framework and how it understands them. It also determines where the framework corresponds with the systemic literary didactic paradigm that determines literature classes in Slovenian grammar schools and develops a cultivated reader, as well as where it deviates from it.
Vloga gledališkega lektorja v opernem gledališču
Authors: Filipčič Redžić Marja , Tivadar Hotimir
Published: September 2024

In opera theatres, a speech consultant assists singers in pronouncing foreign languages, as well as helping them with the pronunciation of Slovenian. A sung opera text needs to be intelligible and linguistically standardised. The articulation of the sounds of Slovenian literary language in opera singing depends on the linguistic norm and on musical laws. The opera theatre speech consultant is involved in the process of creating a performance from the very beginning. Detailed knowledge of the text, as well as of music and directing concepts, also enables the consultant to proofread the texts in the theatre programme in a quality way and to ensure that the surtitles correspond to the stage action.
Literatura in dialog z videoigrami na primeru romanov Puščava, Klet, Katakombe in Anastrofa
Authors: Čeh Aleš , Štuhec Miran
Published: September 2024

The paper explores two novels from the younger generation of Slovenian writers that implement narrative techniques and attributes specific to the video game medium. It places both novels in the broader context of intermediality between video games and literature, and illustrates their transmedial relationship through examples relevant to understanding the magnitude of the phenomenon. Anastrofa, a short novel by Muanis Sinanović, uses video game narrative techniques primarily for space-building within the narrative, whereas the novel-essay Puščava, klet, katakombe by Anja Radaljac enters the dialogue with the video game medium through a more convincing presentation of essayist discourse and a higher degree of reader interaction with the text. Due to the increasing frequency of intermedial transfer between video games and literature in the Slovenian space, the paper provides a pilot analysis of this contemporary narrative phenomenon.
Pleonastična nikalnica v slovenskem jeziku in vprašanje dvoumnosti
Authors: Ambrožič Urša
Published: September 2024

Cursory proofreading of a text does not enable differentiation between sentential negation and pleonastic negation in Slovenian. Only in-depth analysis can lead us to a better understanding of the role of pleonastic negation in certain syntactic environments. The norm based on this role defines the environments in which the use of pleonastic negation is obligatory, but in some cases, depending on the use, it also allows variability. Understanding a language is partially connected to a person’s subjective perception; therefore, this kind of variability can stimulate thoughts about a difference in meaning between the two propositions, which can ultimately mean two completely contradictory interpretations due to the meaning seemingly overlapping. The present paper recapitulates certain restrictions of meaning that must be taken into consideration when deciding whether or not to use pleonastic negation, as its use (usually based on instinct) is not consistent and introduces disarray in meaning into the text through the formation of analogical structures. In this regard, the paper advises caution when dealing with decisive texts of legal importance, as any kind of ambiguity in meaning could have significant consequences in people’s lives.
Spolno občutljiv jezik v govorjenem diskurzu
Authors: Ščuka Nuša
Published: September 2024

The article presents gender sensitive use of language, addressing and stereotypes in live television shows. From this point of view, we will determine how the gender sensitive use of language and the possible presence of stereotypes can be seen in spontaneous formal public discourse. We assume that the shows demonstrate gender differences. The findings are presented as differences between the treatment of men and women.
Zaznavanje in prepoznavanje samoglasniške kolikosti med študenti Univerze na Primorskem

Although Slovenian Grammar (Toporišič 2000) or other classical divisions of the vowel system in the Slovenian literary language (Slovar slovenskega knjižnega jezika, Slovenski pravopis, Slovenska zborna izreka) distinguish between long and short accented vowels, recent research does not confirm this (any longer). Using perception tests that can objectively verify phonetic characteristics, Tivadar (2004b) and Huber (2006) researched whether and how much vowel diversity is perceived and recognised by students of the University of Ljubljana and secondary school students in Pomurje. The present paper sheds light on the results of a perception test performed on students of different study programmes at the Faculty of Humanities of the University of Primorska, which confirms poor recognition of vowel diversity.
Iz zgodovine slovenske poetike. Rokopisni osnutek prozodije Blaža Kumerdeja
Authors: Scherber Peter
Published: September 2024

The Slovenian educator and Enlightenment figure Blaž Kumerdej wrote a handwritten fragment in 1791 as the second part of his attempt at a Carniolan-Slavonic grammar. Written in German, this document consists of a preface that is a genuine “defence” of the Slavic/Slovenian language, while the main part is a fragment of a treatise on “Carniolan-Slovenian” prosody, as well as on rhymes and figures. This draft is as yet untranslated and unpublished. The present article provides a survey of the research done so far as well as a brief overview of the document. The focus is on the intentions of the Enlightenment scholar Kumerdej as discussed in the preface, in which he presents his arguments with the aid of the well-known example of the “noble savage”. The document can be interpreted as an example of the Enlightenment tradition of the “defence of language”.
Sprehod Irene Novak Popov po narečni beneški poeziji
Authors: Purič Vilma
Published: September 2024

The article focuses on studies of contemporary poetry from Beneška Slovenija/Slavia Friulana (Venetian Slovenia) by the literary historian Irena Novak Popov. Considering Venetian-Slovenian works as a subsystem within Slovenian literature, Irena Novak Popov recognises its distinct literary form and acknowledges its unique development, which is tied to a specific historical and social framework. She explores this subsystem as a distinct artistic and cultural phenomenon in relation to the mainstream system of Slovenian literature and strives to make the literature of the western edge of the ethnic Slovenian territory more visible in public literary discourse, establishing it as the subject of expert analysis. Through analyses of the individual poetics of a number of authors (Marina Cernetig, Viljem Černo, Aldo Klodič, Gabriella Tomasetig, Andreina Trusgnach and others), she suggests some peculiar components of Venetian-Slovenian writing. The present article highlights the special attitude of Venetian-Slovenian authors towards the local language and their heterogenous presentation of spatial reality.
Nova slovenščina

Pouk slovenščine v Sloveniji je bil zadnjič temeljito prenovljen v 90. letih prejšnjega stoletja. Danes se ob rastoči vlogi informacijskih tehnologij, evropski integraciji in globalizaciji ponovno pojavlja potreba po prenovi. V prispevku zato v dialogu z Izhodišči za prenovo učnih načrtov v osnovni in srednji šoli raziskujemo izzive in možnosti, ki jih v jezikovni pouk prinašajo nove tehnologije in spremenjene komunikacijske potrebe, pa tudi nova strokovna dognanja in spoznanja. Predstavljamo potrebo po pripravljenosti šolskega sistema na učinke generativne umetne inteligence in pomembnost odprtih učnih gradiv ter premišljenih, problemsko osnovanih digitalnih rešitev. Izpostavljamo, da je učiteljice in učitelje treba opolnomočiti za uporabo, pa tudi soustvarjanje digitalnih jezikovnih virov, orodij in tehnologij. Spremembe v komunikacijskih praksah, kot sta na primer večja neformalnost in anonimnost, zahtevajo novo razumevanje in pristope v poučevanju jezika, ki vključujejo razvoj stilističnega znanja in sposobnost kritične presoje. Pri tem je ključno, da v izobraževalnem sistemu predmet slovenščina presega zgolj učenje jezika, saj neposredno vpliva na uspešnost učenk in učencev pri drugih učnih predmetih ter splošno izobrazbo. Zato posebej poudarjamo tudi potrebo po temeljiti reformi izobraževanja učiteljev in učiteljic slovenščine, da bi ti v prihodnje lahko učinkoviteje uvajali in vključujoče uporabljali nove pristope k poučevanju in ocenjevanju znanja.
Slovenska poezija v gimnazijah
Authors: Pavlič Darja
Published: September 2024

In this paper, I address the question of how to reform the curriculum for grammar schools, namely in the segment devoted to Slovenian poetry after the Second World War. I begin by setting out the starting points for my reflections, noting the importance of interpretation, outlining the place of poetry in schools and the wider public, and briefly outlining some of the main criticisms of the existing school canon. In the main part of the paper, I deal with a modified proposal for a list of required works on which I have included 10 female poets and 15 male poets. I have moved two authors to the list of free choice works (Lojze Krakar, Aleš Šteger), and added two more (Franci Zagoričnik, Jure Detela). To make the total number of poems roughly the same as before, I propose reducing the number of poems for some authors; for Šalamun, I also suggest replacing one of his poems. The biggest novelty is the last set, which includes authors born in the 1970s and 1980s: Veronika Dintinjana, Anja Golob, Katja Gorečan, and Nina Dragičević; I have also added Ada Škerl, Saša Vegri and Barbara Korun to the list in the relevant periods.
Slovenska folkloristika da ali ne
Authors: Stanonik Marija
Published: September 2024

Članek najprej strnjeno predstavi teorijo, kakor se o slovstveni folklori na slovenskih tleh razvija od 80. let 20. stoletja naprej, v želji, da bi slovstvena folkloristika dobila zasluženo mesto v visokošolskem študiju. Saj je bila ob ustanovitvi prve slovenske univerze izločena iz njenega humanističnega obzorja, kar se obema pozna še danes. V tretjem delu so orisana pedagoška prizadevanja za vstop slovstvene folklore in konkretni predlogi za njeno umestitev na prvo in drugo stopnjo izobraževalnega procesa.
Doživljanje kot proces literarne interpretacije
Authors: Zupan Sosič Alojzija
Published: September 2024

Careful dedication to experientiality, as part of the process of literary interpretation, can contribute to better empathy, the basic condition of a more humane society, and at the same time offer a greater degree of pleasure or satisfaction in developing one’s literary ability. Empathy, the ability to understand the emotions, thoughts and actions of another person, enables access to the inner experience of the other person, and at the same time also to knowledge of oneself. Modern research in literary studies pays the most attention to narrative empathy, where the most important researcher, Suzanne Keen, points out as many as three empathies, i.e. textual, reader’s and author’s. Felski and Vernay defend experientiality in this context with various arguments from theorists: the first advocates an emotional approach as a way to increase interest in literature, the second defends it as a fight against dry interpretation and in doing so suggests abandoning impersonal statements, phrases and the majestic plural and imitating the so-called impressionist criticism. At the end of the discussion, I will summarize my suggestions: devote more time to reading and talking about first reading impressions, prepare for the reading aloud, create a special mood for listening to the poem and the dialogic nature of the experience, and in the follow-up questions take into account identification with the poetic self and immersion in the lyrical situation. Keywords: experience, empathy, dry literary interpretation, identification with the poetic self, empathizing with the lyrical situation
Sočasno poučevanje jezika in književnosti ob kanonski mladinski literaturi v drugem triletju osnovne šole
Authors: Mikolič Vesna , Košir Diana
Published: September 2024

V prispevku na primeru črtice Ivana Cankarja Pehar suhih hrušk v drugem triletju osnovne šole predstavljamo uporabo sočasnega poučevanja književnosti in jezika. Odmaknemo se od tradicionalnega pristopa, usmerjenega na avtorja in njegov psihološki odnos z materjo, in se usmerimo na literarno besedilo in njegovo recepcijo. Interpretacija dela je opravljena s hermenevtično metodo in analizo posameznih (jezikovnih, slogovnih, motivno-tematskih idr.) elementov in celote v družbeno-kulturnem kontekstu. Na ta način so učenci bolje motivirani tako za učenje književnosti kot jezika in sočasno razvijajo recepcijske, (meta)jezikovne zmožnosti, literarno zmožnost, komunikacijske veščine in kritično mišljenje.
Wchłanialne nici chirurgiczne: katgut i Dexon w Polskiej Rzeczpospolitej Ludowej na tle rozwoju technologii zachodnich
Authors: Skalski Piotr
Published: September 2024

Having come to grips with the deficit in basic drug production after the Second World War, the management of the state-owned pharmaceutical conglomerate (since 1961 known as Zjednoczenie Przemysłu Farmaceutycznego “Polfa”) attempted to chase after its western rivals. These aspirations turned out to pursue much more propaganda than practical goals, and the country’s technological backwardness continued to deepen. A kind of autarky within the chemical and pharmaceutical industries and political isolation meant that any scientific contacts with foreign countries were hampered. The industrial development policy in the People’s Republic of Poland began to change at the end of 1970, when Edward Gierek was appointed First Secretary of the Central Committee of the Polish United Workers’ Party. Meanwhile, the surgical medical community began to increasingly question the quality of domestically produced resorbable surgical sutures. Faced with futile attempts to solve this problem within its own and academic research institutions, “Polfa” began efforts to acquire a licence for the production of modern Dexon polyglycol sutures, offered by the American Cyanamid company. This transaction was intended to protect the country’s medical system from a shortage of suture materials. The aim of this paper is to analyse implementation of modern technologies of surgical sutures manufacturing in polish planned economy system and pharmaceutical industry. The source material is the archives of “Polfa” located in the Archive of New Files in Warsaw and the State Archive in Poznań.
