Simply put, the modern Slovenian nation began as a cultural project in the age of Enlightenment. Its basic axis has been Standard Slovenian as one of Slavic languages. The book describes from where ...the speakers of the initial common Slavic language arrived at our place, as well as where and when Slavs came into being. Throughout the history of long ages the author observes the relationship between the speakers of the language, political power, and particularly the Church as an institution with a universal ideology which as such does not in any way encourage local identity. The book also recalls the millennial roots of Slovenian identity whose present state is not a logical consequence of the past, much less the beginning of self-evident future. The author knows that the final image of the past is always created by the reader themself, therefore using challenging illustrations he constantly encourages them to think. The author also does not expect the reader to agree with him, but would like them to find some causal connections of their own and thus recover the lost memory of who they are.
Čeprav Slovani danes naseljujejo največji del Evrope, je njihova preteklost slabo poznana, saj so razmeroma pozno stopili v luč pisnih virov. Članek predstavlja rezultate interdisciplinarne raziskave ...mikroregije Bleda, ki odkrivajo življenje Slovanov, o katerem pisni viri molčijo. Prikaže se podoba upravne, gospodarske, politične, identitetne enote, ki jo lahko prepoznamo kot staroslovansko župo. Župe so bile osnovni gradniki staroslovanske družbe. Avtor analizira njihov pomen za razumevanje starih Slovanov.
The book deals with the correspondence of Žiga Zois Baron Edelstein, the most important Enlightenment-era patron and mentor of Slovenian poets, writers, and scholars. The first part of the book ...defines the position of Zois’ correspondence within the history and the genre of the letter. The second part examines its importance for Slavic national revivals. Zois’ network at the end of the 18th and in the beginning of the 19th centuries linked into Enlightenment-era Republic of Letters the greatest intellectuals of the Central Europe and the Balkans. With the centers in Ljubljana and Vienna it did not only instructed Slovenian writers and scholars, but also supported all Slavic cultural nationalisms in Austrian empire.
