The Geography of Slovenia
This book is the first to give a comprehensive and detailed overview of the complete geography of Slovenia in English. Only very few countries, even considerably larger ones, can boast the landscape diversity found in Slovenia since the Alps, the Pannonian Basin, the Dinaric Alps, and the Mediterranean meet and interweave in this small corner of Central Europe, as do Germanic, Hungarian, Slavic, and Romance cultural influences. The book provides a systematical overview of physical and human geographical elements of Slovenia from landforms to cultural characteristics. Special attention is given to landscape diversity, to the presentation of Slovene landscape types and regions, to some particularities and interesting facts of Slovenia, and to the position of Slovenia in the World. The book also illustrates some other important geographical phenomena, processes and interactions between nature and society in nowadays Slovenia. This volume appeals to researchers as well as students in the field of regional geography. It can also serve as a source for complete background information as well as a field guide for Slovenia.
Historična topografija Kranjske (do 1500)
Dobra štiri leta po izidu prve izdaje Historične topografije Kranjske z veseljem predajamo v uporabo dopolnjeno izdajo. Druga izdaja obsega (brez registra na koncu) 1841 strani, kar je za okroglih 40 odstotkov več od predhodnice. Nova vsebina vključuje 445 novo identificiranih lokacij od sukpno 4040 in preko 9000 novih paleoniomov, njihovo število se približuje 34.500. Delo pred vami temelji na 89 evidentiranih zbirkah listin iz 62 različnih arhivov in več kot 300 kodeksih ter spisih iz slovenskih, avstrijskih, italijanskih, hrvaških, madžarskih, nemških in čeških arhivov ter knjižnic. Dopolnjeni in elaborirani sta bili tudi v prvi izdaji zapostavljeni gesli *Ljubljana* in *Škofja Loka* ter odpravljene vse ugotovljene napake in dodatno identificirane nekatere doslej še nerazrešene lokacije Pri novih geslih je bila upoštevana nekoliko nadgrajena metodologija. To se odraža v občutno bogatejšem kontekstu – širšem citatu iz originalnega vira, v katerem se pojavlja paleonim. Kjer je le možno, je ta po novem obsežnejši in prinaša celostnejše informacije o nepremicninah, osebah in dogodkih, povezanih z zadevno lokacijo

Magdalenska gora
The finds and preserved grave groups from its tumulus cemeteries, which are kept in several museums in different countries (Narodni muzej Slovenije, Ljubljana~Naturhistorisches Museum, Wien~Peabody Museum of Harvard University in Cambridge, USA), give a good insight into the cultural and social processes of the time. Together with notes on the circumstances of find and contents of graves, they represent a valuable source for the study of social structure and differentiation, as well as cultural identity.
Silences and Divided Memories
The Istrian Peninsula, which is made up of modern-day Croatia, Slovenia, and Italy suffered from the so-called "Istrian exodus" after the Second World War. This book looks at this difficult, silenced past and shifts the usual focus from migrants to those who stayed behind and to the new immigrants who came to the “emptied” towns.The research, based on individual memories, deals with silences and competing national discourses, reasons to stay and leave, hybrid border ethnic identities, and the renewal of Istrian society and its new social relations. It is a self-critical reflection on an ignored chapter of national history, which, with an empathetic approach, allows the silence to speak.
The Last Peasant War
A history of the largely forgotten peasant revolution that swept central and eastern Europe after World War I—and how it changed the course of interwar politics and World War II As the First World War ended, villages across central and eastern Europe rose in revolt. Led in many places by a shadowy movement of army deserters, peasants attacked those whom they blamed for wartime abuses and long years of exploitation—large estate owners, officials, and merchants, who were often Jewish. At the same time, peasants tried to realize their rural visions of a reborn society, establishing local self-government or attempting to influence the new states that were being built atop the wreckage of the...
