Abstract

The author presents the most significant work of the Slovene folklorist and Slavist Karl Štrekelj, the book Slovenske narodni pesni 1-4 (1895-1923). He also discloses historical and social background which influenced the publication of teh collection. Štrekelj's significant views, particularly hist stand towards the folk culture, are introduced, and his work appraised.The author revises some earlier evaluations of Štrekelj's opus, made by Štrekelj's contemporaries and followers. By pointing to the both deficiencies and still valid aspects of Štrekelj's work, the author qualifies his contribution as exceptional for Slovenian folkloristics. He emphaisises however, the necessity of historical approach since by using contemporary criteria Štrekelj's work would be misprized.
