The Prosveta English Language Section: Certainly Hot Hard News, and Never Intented Be

During 1916, the 10-year-old Slovene language Chicago newspaper Prosveta developed a single page published in English. Aimed at young persons of Slovene background who spoke "the American language", the English page was initiated to arrtact memberships in the Slovene National Benefit Society, which published Prosveta. Through the years the English Section now and again nooded in the direction of materials beyond lodge reports and dances, but the page presented neither hard news nor crucial matters that adjacent Slovene language pages presented. The non-Slovene-literate English language reader of Prosveta therefore learned far less than he might have about his Slovene fellow citizens.

Foreword

The first issue of the international scientific review Dve domovini/Two Homelands, published by the Institute for Slovene Emigration Research, a part of the Centre of Scientific Research of the Slovene Academy of Sciences and Arts, has been received very favourably, both at home and abroad. This encouraging response gives its editors every reason to continue with the publication of this periodical. Despite the very difficult financial situation, you have before you a double issue of Dve domovini/Two Homelands. The first of the two sections contains a selection of papers presented at the International Symposium on Emigrant Publications, held in Maribor from 18 to 21 April 1991. The gathering was organized by Maribor’s Faculty of Education, the History Department and the Research Institute of the same Faculty, and financed by the Ministry of Science and Technology of the Republic of Slovenia. In keeping with the policy of open scientific cooperation, the Institute for Slovene Emigration Research cooperated very productively with all home scholars and foreign researches of Slovene extraction who attended the symposium.
