History

  1. Male, born on 4 July 1925 in Ponikve na Krasu, Slovenia. Already as a child, Ciril Zlobec, as a member of the Slovene minority in Italy, was subjugated to fascist denationalization procedures: he had to attend an Italian school and he was not permitted to speak Slovene in public. He wrote his first poem, expressing his Slovenian civil rights, at the age of 13. In 1941, Zlobec was expelled from the high school located in the small theological seminary in Koper, when he was caught writing poems in Slovene. He became an activist in the Liberation Front of the Slovene Nation in 1942 and at the beginning of the following year he was mobilized to the special battalions (political confinement for young Primorje Slovenians). Upon the fall of Italy in September 1943, he returned home and joined the partisans. He was a fighter, a political delegate, a courier and an informer. He founded Slovene schools throughout the Karst area, he taught, and he gave lectures at the Partisan’s People’s University. Zlobec continued his studies in Ljubljana and graduated as a Slavic scholar. He then worked as a reporter and an editor. He is a poet, a writer and a translator. He served one mandate as the president of the Yugoslavian Writer’s Association. He was elected to the Presidency of the first independent Slovene state at the first multi-party elections in 1990. He is an ordinary member of the Slovene Academy for Arts and Sciences. He has published several collections of poems, two novels and five books of essays and journalisms. 18 of his books are translated into foreign languages. He has received several literary awards at home and abroad.

  2. rojen 4. julija 1925, Ponikve na Krasu, Slovenija. Že kot otrok je zato, ker je bil pripadnik slovenske manjšine v Italiji, doživljal fašistično raznarodovanje, saj je moral obiskovati italijansko šolo in v javnosti ni smel govoriti slovensko. Ko je bil star trinajst let, je napisal prvo pesem, ki jo je občutil tudi kot demonstracijo svoje pripadnosti slovenstvu. Leta 1941 je bil izključen iz gimnazije v malem semenišču v Kopru, ker so odkrili, da piše pesmi v slovenščini. Leta 1942 je postal aktivist Osvobodilne fronte slovenskega naroda, v začetku naslednjega leta je bil mobiliziran v posebne bataljone (politična konfinacija za mladoletne primorske Slovence), ob razpadu Italije septembra 1943 se je vrnil domov in se pridružil partizanom. Bil je borec, politični delegat, minerec, kurir, obveščevalec, ustanavljal je slovenske šole po Krasu, poučeval, predaval na partizanski ljudski univerzi. Po vojni je nadaljeval študij v Ljubljani, diplomiral na slavistiki, se zaposlil kot novinar in urednik. Je pesnik, pisatelj in prevajalec. En mandat je bil predsednik zveze pisateljev Jugoslavije. Na prvih večstrankarskih volitvah l. 1990 je bil izvoljen v predsedstvo prve samostojne slovenske države. Je redni član Slovenske akademije znanosti in umetnosti. Objavil je več pesniških zbirk, dva romana in pet knjig esejev in publicistike. Osemnajst njegovih knjig je prevedenih v tuje jezike. Prejel je več domačih in tujih literarnih nagrad.
