Book WW1 Treaty of London

Journalist Presents Book on WWI Treaty that Partitioned Slovenia
2. april 2012 | Objavljeno v Slovenia
Journalist Uro� Lipu�ček launched a book on the 1915 Treaty of London in Ljubljana on Monday. Entitled �Sacro Egoismo, Slovenians in the clutches of the secret London Pact 1915″, the book looks into negotiations between Italy and the Entente powers in the middle of World War I.

Aimed at partitioning the territories of the Triple Alliance, the pact lost Slovenia a third of its territory and one fourth of its population. It was �the beginning of all the woe Slovenians faced in the previous century,� Lipu�ček said at the presentation.

The secret London Pact was a watershed moment for Slovenians, the effects of which are felt to this day, said the author, a long time correspondent from the US for public broadcaster RTV Slovenija.

On 512 pages, he condensed previously unseen documents and diplomatic material. But certain documents remain unavailable despite the events taking place almost a century ago, he warned, adding that those might bring different interpretations of the treaty.

The London Pact, or the Treaty of London, was a secret pact between Italy and Triple Entente, signed in London on 26 April 1915 by the Kingdom of Italy, Great Britain, France and Russia. With it, Italy joined the Entente in exchange for territories of South Tyrol, Trieste, Gorizia, Istria and large parts of Dalmatia.

The book deals with international politics and relations within Europe since the Congress of Berlin, and investigates the rise of Italian nationalism and the Slovenian situation and policies in the formation of Yugoslavia.

The central themes are Italian and Entente politics in time of WWI, with the roles of US, British, Russian and Italian diplomats in the negotiations. The last chapter is dedicated to the consequences of the treaty for the situation in Austria-Hungary at its collapse.

Lipu�ček is an author of several books on the times before, during and after World War I. He analyses the role of major powers, such as the US, in shaping state borders in the Balkans and Central Europe which affected the lives of millions.

Slovenian writer D. Jancar received the 2011 European prize for literature Laureate, while writer B. Pahor received the honorary medal
31. 3. 2012
The 7th European literary festival entitled �Translating Europe� was held in Strasbourg from 23 to 31 March 2012, which paid tribute to Slovenian and Triestian literature this year. The festival was organised by the University of Strasbourg and City and the Urban Community of Strasbourg in partnership with the European Capital of Literature Association (ACEL).

At the main ceremony in front of the City House, Slovenian writer Drago Jancar received the 2011 European prize for literature thus becoming 2011 Laureate, while Trieste-born writer Boris Pahor received the honorary medal of the City of Strasbourg.

Drago Jancar is one of the most widely translated Slovenian authors and a few of his works were translated into the French language by translator Andree L�ck-Gaye who also won 2011 Translation grant. She is also the translator of Boris Pahor�s works. French actor Marcel Bozonnet read Pahor�s novel L�Homme de Trieste (Man from Trieste), a literary promenade by Boris Pahor, who is the author of Pilgrim Among the Shadows.

The Slovenian Day began with a well-visited round table discussion, at which participated both Slovenian laureates, author and translator Boris A. Novak, French journalists and Bulgarian author Tzvetan Todorov, who will also visit Maribor 2012 � European Capital of Culture.

Slavoj �i�ek is a Slovenian philosopher and cultural critic. His books include Living in the End Times, In Defense of Lost Causes, and four volumes of the Essential �i�ek. The forthcoming God in Pain: Inversions of Apocalypse is a brilliant dissection and reconstruction of Christianity, Islam, and Judiasm where, along with co-author Boris Gunj�vic, �i�ek employs Hegelian and Lacanian analysis to show how each faith understands humanity and divinity � and how the differences between them may be far stranger than they may at first seem. Last summer, the Marxist theorist even managed to bridge the gap between intellectual discourse and the gossip of the New York Post�s �Page Six� when it was reported that he and Lady Gaga spent time discussing feminism and collective human creativity. The rumors were false, but �i�ek�s popularity outside traditional academic circles is undeniable thanks to his interest in contemporary issues and keen sense of humor. He is a professor at the European Graduate School, International Director of the Birkbeck Institute for the Humanities, Birkbeck College, University of London, and a senior researcher at the Institute of Sociology, University of Ljubljana, Slovenia.

The Croatian Theologian Boris Gunjevic serves as a lecturer in ethics at the Biblijski Institut in Zagreb, Croatia. He is the author of Crucified Subject: Without the Grail and co-author with �i�ek of �God in Pain: Inversions of Apocalypse.�
