Quasi-literature, chronicling and occasional writings are new terms~in the vertical classification of literary culture they define literary phenomena in between literary folklore and literature. The introduction chapter of the book ('Quasi-literature, Chronicling and occasional Writings in Theory and Practice') presents each ot the three mentioned (conditionally aestethic) categories in theoretical terms: based on terminology development, definition, form and subject. This is followed by empirical examples vhere both the diachronous and synchronous aspects of analysis are applied: place, education, occupation, world and aesthetic view, disadvantaged life (disabled and blind persons) Rokopisje, kronopisje in literarjenje so novi pojmi, ki v vertikalni klasifikaciji slovstvene kulture opredeljujejo slovstvene pojave v vmesnem območju med slovstveno folkloro in literaturo. Uvodno poglavje vsako od treh omenjenih pogojno estetskih kategorij predstavi teoretično: glede na terminologizacijo, definicijo, oblike in snov. To delo najprej te pojme predstavi in utemelji na teoretični ravni, nato pa predstavi njihovo fenomenologijo s konkretnimi zgledi teh vrst ubesedovanja.

Women migrants and their personal experiences have been in the focus of research scrutiny only for these past two decades. The attention has been paid to them since a general belief prevailed in the academic world that migration has always been a process characterized by distinct gender-related specifics. The life stories of migrant women present “lives in a context”, in regard to various social, economic and historical circumstances. They also indicate how these lives depended on cultural landscapes, personal attitudes, intimate calculations and independent decisions. The collected life stories show how the decisions in the life-long migration processes are not influenced only by economic and political factors, but mainly by family and friendship networks and bonds, and by intimate reasons and aspirations. It is impossible to understand migration phenomena without personal accounts of migrants along with subjective experiences of those who leave and those who stay. The use of auto/biographical sources has enriched the migration studies with new insights into the different roles, experiences, statuses and dealings of men and women in migration contexts. The book by seven authors – Mirjam Milharčič Hladnik, Jernej Mlekuž, Marjan Drnovšek, Katja Škrlj, Sanja Cukut, Urška Strle, Špela Kalčič – is a contribution to a better understanding of migration dynamics in Slovenia today and in the past. Življenjske zgodbe migrantk predstavljamo zato, ker brez subjektivnih izkušenj tistih, ki odidejo, in tistih, ki ostanejo, migracijskih procesov sploh ne moremo razumeti. V svetu se posebna raziskovalna pozornost migrantkam posveča šele zadnji dve desetletji, ko se je uveljavilo prepričanje, da so migracije spolno obeleženi procesi in da je treba poleg makroekonomskih in političnih vzrokov razumeti tudi splet družinskih in prijateljskih vezi in mrež, znotraj katerih se sprejemajo usodne odločitve o selitvah. S pomočjo življenjskih zgodb in z rabo (avto)biografskih virov nas študije migracij seznanjajo z različnimi vlogami, izkušnjami, položaji in obravnavami moških in žensk v migracijskih kontekstih v preteklosti in danes. Knjiga – delo sedmih avtoric in avtorjev: Mirjam Milaharčič Hladnik, Marjan Drnovšek, Urška Strle, Jernej Mlekuž, Katja Skrlj, Sanja Cukut in Špela Kalčić – je prispevek k obogatitvi te vednosti in razumevanju migracij na Slovenskem.

The book focuses on german speaking catholic missionary sisters who came to South Africa after 1945. In three chapters (space of origin, convent space, missionary space) the life stories are interpreted as an “adventure with a rule”. The group portrait shows motivations, daily life and experiences of one of the last generations of missionary women. Das Buch stellt deutschsprachige katholische Missionarinnen, die seit 1945 in Südafrika tätig waren, in den Mittelpunkt. Entlang der drei Kapitel Herkunftsraum, Klosterraum und Missionsraum werden die Lebensgeschichten der Frauen als Erzählungen eines „regulierten Abenteuers“ interpretiert. Das daraus entstehende Gruppenporträt gibt Einblicke in Motivationen, Alltag und Erfahrungen einer letzten Generation von Missionarinnen.

En este texto las víctimas, mujeres campesinas desplazadas a la ciudad, despojadas y desterradas del Municipio de San Francisco, se convierten en protagonistas de una historia presente, desconocida, que se construye a partir de los relatos sobre las experiencias vividas, sobre las realidades sentidas y los dolores padecidos, pero también sobre el trabajo colectivo desde la Asociación Caminos de Esperanza Madres de la Candelaria y el fortalecimiento conjunto para generar otras perspectivas de vida. Es la voz de las mismas mujeres la que evidencia nuevas maneras de agenciarse como madres, esposas y mujeres campesinas en la ciudad, que van a hacer de las víctimas seres potentes y capaces, desvirtuando la desvalorización y la invalidez atribuida por los discursos mediáticos.
