The two-part documentary by Majda Širca, Woman, talks about the struggle of women for the right to vote, for the right to work and receive equal payment, for the freedom to choose whether to give birth; about the struggle for a civil code and for erasing socially conditioned differences; about the impact of the Catholic Church on the dependence of women; about female artists, workers, and peasant women; about the path towards a civil code; about contraception, menstruation, violence, criminal law; and about the many restrictions which women have gradually torn down. The second part of the film concerns the role of female teachers and their forced celibacy, and the image of mothers, businesswomen, and women during both world wars and during socialism. It points out Vida Tomšič, the first female minister in the post-war national government. Members of the programme group who appear in the film are Marta Verginella, PhD, Irena Selišnik, PhD, and Ana Cergol Paradiž, PhD; broadly speaking, the film is greatly based on the research these women have conducted.

B.04 Guest lecture
COBISS.SI-ID: 58841442At a symposium on the quincentenary of the "Slovene" peasant revolt of 1515, organised by the Department of History at the Faculty of Arts, University of Ljubljana, in cooperation with Slovenska matica, Zgodovinski inštitut Milka Kosa ZRC SAZU [Milko Kos Historical Institute at ZRC SAZU], and Posavski muzej Brežice [Posavje Museum Brežice], twenty-six historians, literary historians, ethnologists and sociologists gathered and, in light of new historiographical paradigms, closely examined the existing knowledge of peasant revolts during the Late Middle Ages and early modern times, and presented new findings reached by historiography in the last few years. In his opening lecture, Sašo Jerše, who was the head of the symposium and one of its initiators, outlined the general historical frame in which the revolt of 1515 had taken place, devoting special attention to the ideational or anthropological concepts within which contemporaries had perceived the social relationships of the time as legitimate and with which they had substantiated their rights, hence also their right to revolt.

COBISS.SI-ID: 59139938Historical film is most commonly used in the introductory part of the lesson or at the end of the lesson as demonstration method. The lecture highlighted several ways how to use historical film during the lesson, what are the differences of use of documentaries and historical films, with the emphasis on the types of questions (questions on content or design). The lecture attempt to explain to students what is the role of historical films in history lessons and how the pupils can be accustomed to critical thinking (what does the film tell us about the time, which presents?; what does the film tell us about the event in the past?; what does the film tell us about the time in which it was made?, etc.). It stressed also motivational side of historical films, because they attract the most the attention of pupils in history lessons.

COBISS.SI-ID: 59159650This documentary, the work of screenwriter and narrator Peter Mikša, PhD, is dedicated to Pavla Jesih, a Slovene woman who left an exceptional mark on the Yugoslav cinematic business in the interwar period - she was the first female and, in general, the biggest cinematic entrepreneur in all of Yugoslavia - and on Alpinism, as she was at that time considered one of the best female alpinists in the world. After the war she was sentenced to prison in the political trials and expropriated. In the following years her role was deliberately kept secret, and later on forgotten and unknown.
