The Burden of Transgenerational Memories and Silences on the Third Generation: The Case of the Slovenian-Italian Border
The article explores how the collective and individual memories of major traumatic events in the area of the Slovenian-Italian border have impacted the identities, memories, and the living of the third youngest generation of the Slovenian and Italian national minorities. The article discusses the fieldwork findings collected in the Slovenian-Italian border region during two focus groups. Today’s generation wishes to break through a divisive legac…
My Silent Story: Conflicted Memories, Silences and Intergenerational Traumas 1
This article aims to present the interdisciplinary project "My Story from Silence", conceived in 2022. The project represents a pioneering effort in assembling individuals from diverse communities, characterized by varying ethnic, national, and migratory backgrounds, along a historically dynamic border. Its primary objective was to provide a platform for these participants to articulate and share narratives previously shrouded in silence, offerin…
Preteklost, ki ne mine: Nepredelana preteklost v sedanjosti in prihodnosti Istre
V članku avtorica argumentira, kako je preteklost določa prihodnost, sploh če je preteklost nepredelana, kakor kaže primer slovenskega dela Istre. Primer pravopisne kodifikacije geografskega imena za slovensko Istro pokaže, kako pomembni mejniki iz nedavne preteklosti vplivajo na lokalno identiteto. Pri tem analizira utišanost ter razmerje med urbanim in ruralnim. Teza je, da se z brisanjem preteklosti, značilnim za socializem, prihodnost »vrača«…
Un-Silencing Traumatic Memories along the Slovenian-Italian Border: The Case of Psychotherapeutic and Anthropological Workshops
The article is the author’s reflection on an interdisciplinary collaboration between cultural anthropology and psychotherapy, during which the workshops addressed the dissonant and traumatic memories of the society along the Slovenian-Italian border. It addresses the plurality of voices in the frame of contested and divergent memories, caught in a competition of victimhood. The author argues that the past and the future are inevitably intertwined…
V tišini spomina: »Eksodus« in Istra
The “Istrian Exodus” and the Istrian Society that Followed It
This ethnologic study focuses on the aftermath of the “Istrian exodus”, including the conflicting national discourses concerning it and the related silenced memories. Various migration processes are highlighted on the basis of memories. Analysing the social processes that took place in Istrian society after the exodus, the paper examines the concepts of the “other” and of “home”, and the establishment of symbolic boundaries
“Istrian exodus”: Between official and alternative memories, between conflict and reconciliation
This article touches on the sensitive topic of the so-called Istrian exodus, which has been stirring conflict in political discourses between Italy and the former Yugoslavia, later Slovenia and Croatia, for more than six decades. It analyses different forms of case-studies of peace-making memories, such as political discourses, commemorations, monuments, literature, film, theatre, etc. The research focuses on the emptied and resettled space of Is…
On Silence in Ethnography: From Secret to Trauma and Incompatible Memories
Avtorica z vidika samorefleksije premišlja o problemu molka v etnografskem raziskovanju in v produkciji etnološkega znanja. Analizira različne vrste molka, na katere je postala pozorna pri svojih terenskih raziskavah folklore, verovanj in spominov na 2. svetovno vojno in čas po njej. Molk je lahko posledica tega, da sogovorniki namenoma obdržijo skrivnost, še posebej o verovanjskih praksah, ali pa travm in neskladnih spominov. *** From a self-ref…

Caves as Entrances to the World Beyond, from Where Fertility Is Derived. The Case of SW Slovenia Jame kot vhod v onstranstvo, od koder izvira plodnost. Primer JZ Slovenije
This paper addresses the question of the prevailing meaning of the caves on the basis of recently discovered folklore material and some archaeological discoveries from south-western Slovenia. Among the different meanings of caves in the local landscape, the author explores their function as the entrance to the world beyond, characterised by the unnatural passing of time. Obtaining new-borns from caves or keeping dead children in caves, frequently…
Petroglifi iz Jame v bližini Trnovskega studenca nad Ilirsko Bistrico na Snežniški planoti Petroglyphs from the Cave in the Vicinity of Trnovno Spring above Ilirska Bistrica on the Snežnik Plateau
The article is an attempt of interpretation of the petroglyphs in Cave in the vicinity of Trnovo spring or Iapods’ cave. The anthropomorphic figure (archer/horseman) and the circles with the crossed lines inside are compared to other cases of rock art. A step forward of the analysis is the comparative study of ritual caves with phallic stalactites in the surroundings and the analysis of its mythical landscape
“Emplaced” Tradition. The Continuity of Folk Tradition in the Landscape
Since the expulsion of “folk” from the academic discourse the research of folk traditions seems inappropriate for a modern ethnologist. However, the landscapes are endowed with collective memory and meaning, given by the tradition. In the “emplaced” tradition can be discerned some continuity by which continuity includes change. Moreover, the aim of the paper is to show new dimensions of research and meanings, if the tradition is researched from t…
