The book describes the role of singing and (folk) songs in the Gorizia Hills (Goriška brda) within the processes of shaping the political nation and facilitating national identification in the second half of the nineteenth century. In addition to the use of the Slovene language at school and church and defining Slovene as the language of common use in censuses, national activists encouraged inhabitants to express identification with the singing of Slovene “folk” songs. Therefore they promoted the performances of choirs and tried to sweep-out the singing of non-Slovene songs - especially Friulian and Italian. The singing outside the reading and singing societies was influenced by the way of life, which was strongly marked by the system of tenant farming. The book also presents the research of folk songs in the Gorizia Hills, with special emphasis on short songs with strong dialect features, which in everyday life of the inhabitants complemented the repertoire of folk and religious songs known in the wider Slovenian territory. Monografija Vi čuvarji ste obmejni osvetljuje dejavnike in procese, ki so v 19. stoletju vplivali na poudarjanje narodne identifikacije kmečkih prebivalcev Goriških brd. Narodni aktivisti so poleg rabe slovenskega jezika v šoli in cerkvi in opredeljevanja za slovenski pogovorni jezik na popisih posebej spodbujali Brice k izražanju identifikacije s petjem slovenskih »narodnih« pesmi. Zato so pospeševali delovanje pevskih zborov in skušali iztrebiti petje neslovenskih pesmi – predvsem furlanskih in italijanskih. Na pevsko dejavnost zunaj okvira društev je pomembno vplival način življenja prebivalstva, ki ga je močno zaznamoval sistem zakupništva, t. i. kolonat. Knjiga poleg obravnave narodnih identifikacij kmečkega prebivalstva obmejnih območij na osnovi t. i. ljudske kulture predstavi tudi raziskovanje ljudskih pesmi v Goriških brdih. Med temi so imele posebno mesto narečno obarvane priložnostne pesmi, ki so v vsakdanjem življenju prebivalcev dopolnjevale repertoar ljudskih in cerkvenih pesmi, poznanih na širšem slovenskem ozemlju.

This book by the renowned Russian linguist and semiotician Nikolai Mikhailov [Николай Александрович Михайлов] (1967–2010) is now published posthumously, more than ten years after his death. Presented is analytic overview of numerous past studies on Slavic and Balto-Slavic mythology. Included are works written by scholars of Slavic mythology based on written sources as well as on findings from folklore, linguistics, and archaeology. The first analysed is the work of the Lusatian-Serbian author Michael Frenzl on Slavic idols, which was written as early as 1691 but not published until 1719. It is followed by treatises and monographs that span across three centuries. The so-called original sources (reports of chroniclers, archaeological sources) may be incomplete and obscure, yet they are in this book again critically analysed. The author reconstructed the mythology of various Slavic nations partly also through the remnants of paganism that have survived to this day in various and often highly modified forms. Knjiga priznanega ruskega jezikoslovca in semiotika Nikolaja Aleksandroviča Mihajlova [Николай Александрович Михайлов] (1967–2010) je izšla posthumno kar deset let po njegovi smrti. V njej je podan dober pregled številnih raziskav slovanske in baltoslovanske mitologije. Predstavljena so dela, ki so jih pisali proučevalci slovanske mitologije tako na podlagi pisnih kot tudi folklornih, jezikoslovnih in arheoloških virov. Njihovo vrsto začenja delo lužiškosrbskega avtorja Michaela Frenzla o slovanskih malikih, ki je bilo napisano že leta 1691, objavljeno pa šele leta 1719. Sledijo razprave in monografije, ki se vrstijo skozi tri stoletja. Prvotni viri (poročila kronistov in letopiscev) so sicer nepopolni in nejasni, vendar so v tej knjigi ponovno kritično analizirani. Poleg tega je skozi prežitke poganstva rekonstruirana tudi mitologija različnih slovanskih narodov in predstavljena njihova mitsko-ritualistična dediščina.

This translation of the book ('The Historical Roots of Magic Tale') written by one of the most prominent Russian folklorists of the 20th century Vladimir Yakovlevich Propp, presents one more classical work of anthropological and folkloristical science to Slovenian researchers. The theoretical starting-points which Propp concived in his book “Morphology of the Folktale” was in this work projected on concrete material – on Russian and European folktales. By comparing folktale motifs with actual historical and anthropological sources he substantiated his structuralistical and ritualistical theoties in folk narrative research and folkloristics. S prevodom temeljnega dela enega najvidnejših raziskovalcev ljudskega pripovedništva minulega stoletja, Vladimirja Jakovljeviča Proppa, je slovenska znanstvena publicistika bogatejše še za eno klasično študijo antropološke in folkloristične vede. Knjiga Zgodovinske korenine čarobne pravljice predstavlja morfološko in ritualistično usmerjeno študijo ljudskih – predvsem ruskih – čarobnih pravljic. Teoretična izhodišča, ki jih je Propp zasnoval v Morfologiji pravljice, je tokrat uporabil ob konkretnih primerih ljudskih čarobnih pravljic, ki jih je vzporedil z zgodovinskimi in antropološkimi viri.

This book (‘Type Index of Slovenian Folktales – Animal Tales and Fables’) is the first of the comprehensive body of systematization of Slovenian folktales along the lines of the latest, revised edition of the Types of International Folk Tales by Hans-Jörg Uther (2004). It includes Slovenian animal tales and fables that have been listed among the first 299 numbers of the international classification system. It contains archaic, internationally comparable material which was previously difficult to access and is now published for the first time in a comprehensive and systematic form. With the transfer of the latest scientific results to the Slovenian research sphere~additional studies and comments~and the application of the international classification system for the classification of material it greatly facilitates further development of the discipline while simultaneously including the Slovenian narrative tradition in a broader international context. Since each folktale type includes examples of folktales the book will also attract the attention of the general public. Knjiga je prva iz obsežnega opusa sistemizacije slovenskih ljudskih pravljic po vzoru zadnje dopolnjene izdaje Mednarodnega tipnega indeksa pravljic (H.-J. Uther, The Types of International Folktales 2004). Zaobjema slovenske živalske pravljice in basni, ki so uvrščene med prvih 299 številk mednarodnega klasifikacijskega sistema. Prinaša doslej težko dostopno in arhaično mednarodno primerljivo gradivo, ki je tukaj prvič objavljeno v celoviti in sistematični obliki. S prenosom sodobnih znanstvenih dosežkov na slovensko raziskovalno področje, spremnimi študijami in komentarji ter aplikacijo mednarodnega klasifikacijskega sistema pri razvrščanju gradiva delo olajšuje nadaljnji razvoj vede, hkrati pa vključuje slovensko pripovedno izročilo v širši mednarodni kontekst. Posameznim tipom pravljic so dodani primeri pravljic, kar približuje knjigo tudi širši javnosti.

Knjiga je rezultat prizadevanja, da bi se slovenska slovstvena folkloristika konstituirala kot znanstveno verificirana disciplina s svojim predmetom, terminologijo in metodo, saj se avtorica ne more sprijazniti s tezo, da je (slovstveni) folkloristiki prihranjeno samo zbiranje. V knjigi tako predstavlja širok spekter vprašanj, ki vabijo slovensko kulturno (samo)zavest k premisleku o prevrednotenju slovenske slovstvene folklore kot besedne umetnosti. Besedna umetnost spremlja človeka vse od nastanka jezika in je po iznajdbi pisave (p)ostala ne le umetnost narečij, ampak tudi ustvarjalnost, ki nikakor ni vezana samo na ruralno okolje, saj v najrazličnejši pojavnosti spremlja današnjega urbanega človeka.
