Produktinformationen zu „Of Freedom and God (ePub)“
Of Freedom and God, Jeremi Slak and Jason Blake's translation of essays by Marjan Rozanc, contains a selection of essays from the 1995 collection »O svobodi in bogu" (Of Freedom and God) that Andrej Inkret put together and edited. Left out of the English translation are primarily those essays that are very local in nature; the red thread of the essays included in the English translation show a "European dimension" and an openness to the broader spiritual and literary space which at the same time is always realized in the most intimate and narrow of surroundings. As Andrej Inkret writes in his afterword to the collection: "from the very first texts, [Rozanc's essays] are based on questioning any apodictic, purely rationalistic answers. Moreover, Rozanc's essays are even derived from the thought that new-age man, with his unique, inimitable personal individuality as well as his socio-political being, is placed into an open, free, uncertain world in which there are no longer, and no longer can be, any more a priori, self-understood and unambiguous 'transcendent' values that might, from the outset, afford man a firm point of reference, thought or, for example, a home."
Autoren-Porträt von Marjan Rozanc
Marjan Rozanc (1930-1990) was a Slovenian writer, playwright and essayist. After 1950, he began publishing in a number of cultural magazines ("Obzornik", "Mlada pota", "Ljubljanski dnevnik", "NaSa sodobnost" and "Nova obzorja"). In 1962 and 1962 he was a member of the editorial board of "Perspektive". For the 1962-1963 season he led the experimental theatre "Oder 57", which ceased operations in 1964 when the authorities shut it down. The government also shut down "Perspektive", and Rozanc withdrew from the cultural-political scene.After the mid-1960s, Rozanc increasingly devoted himself to essays, first publishing them in magazines and soon after also in book form - his main collections include "Iz krvi in mesa" (Of Blood and Flesh), Evropa (Europe), "Manihejska kronika" (Manichean Chronical) and Brevir (Breviary). Thematically, the essays touch on key questions of the modern European individual - they deal with politics, culture, morality and art, while also addressing philosophical, literary, historical, existential, religious and metaphysical matters. In addition, he wrote essays about sports, concerned more with the process of bringing people together than he was with results and success. In 1968 he was sentenced to a two-year conditional discharge because of an essay he had written for the Trieste magazine "Most" (Bridge) (www.litteraeslovenicae.si).
