Life

Ingolič came from near Maribor (German: Marburg an der Drau). He attended high school in Maribor and then studied philology in Paris and Ljubljana. At the grammar school in Ptuj (German: Pettau) Ingolič taught as a Slovenian teacher. During the Second World War he was evicted to Serbia and spent four years in exile there. After 1955 he lived in Ljubljana, where he mainly devoted himself to writing. Ingolič also worked as the editor of the literary magazine Nova Obzorja . In 1981 he became a full member of the Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts .

Works

As a writer, he mainly wrote novels and short stories. Stylistically, his works in the 1930s belonged to social realism, among whose leading representatives such as Prežihov Voranc and Ciril Kosmač he was also one. After the Second World War, he submitted to socialist realism , the officially propagated literary movement of communist Yugoslavia . Ingolič wrote primarily about the Slovenian people and described the lives of artisans, farmers and factory workers who otherwise received little attention in literature.
