The book is founded on analysis of manuscripts and books of the Academy of the Industrious. First, it deals with the academy that based the transformation of Ljubljana into a regional cultural center around 1700 on contemporary Italian culture. In next chapters, it presents the main examples, designated by the academy to the town: ancient Rome as the hearth of former empire, new Rome as the center of the Church and Baroque art, and finally Venice as the closest Italian cultural center. In the last part, the book describes the most important achievements of the academy in Ljubljana: a new cathedral in modern Roman style and the first public scholarly library, modelled upon the libraries in Milan, Venice, and Rome.

The article focuses on several intertextual connections between the opuses of the Slovak Pan-Slavist Ján Kollár and the Slovene-Croatian Illyrian poet Stanko Vraz, more specifically,on themulti-layered influence that Kollárs epic poem Slávy dcera had on Vraz's first book of poems written in the new Illyrian language, Djulabije. The first part outlines Vrazs complex links with Czech culture, which he considered to be most prestigious and central to the question of Slavic national revival. In the second part, the article is centered around the elements of Kollárs work that most inspired Vraz. The last part provides analyses of both literary works, the earlier of which is a very complex case of intertextuality in itself.

The article outlines a synoptic reading of Marx’s The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte and Lacan’s The Other Side of Psychoanalysis. This kind of reading of Marx’s discursivization of politics and Lacan’s politicization of discourse can prevent reductionist interpretations of such metaphoric dyads of the Brumaire as “phrase”/“content,” “tragedy”/“farce,” “drape”/“parody,” “new”/“native language.” At the same time it can render Lacan’s matrix of discourses pertinent for Marxist analyses of contemporary capitalism.

This article presents recent contributions of the post-classical narratology phase that pave the way for a narratological analysis of narrative phenomena in plays and develop the bases for a future systematic transgeneric narratology of drama. The overview of current research in this area concludes with the introduction of certain narratological concepts into an analysis of plays by Dušan Jovanović and an examination of the narratives and narrativity in them.

This paper presents the Register of Early Modern Slovenian Manuscripts, which includes manuscripts from the 17th and 18th centuries that have been overlooked by scholars focused on printed books from the same era. The Register attempts to address this gap in Slovenian manuscript studies by describing these unknown and forgotten early modern manuscripts with facsimiles, an index of basic manuscript citations, and a bibliography containing publications where these manuscripts are mentioned. It is encoded in TEI P5 using the manuscript description module and available via a web interface. The paper discusses the specifics of early modern manuscripts, explains the structure and encoding of the Register (especially encoding of temporal and geographic data), and presents the portal built using the Fedora Commons repository software that allows the user to browse and search manuscripts and export data in TEI format, and that enables metadata harvesting.
