Ivan Prijatelj

Ivan Prijatelj (born December 23, 1875 in Vinice , † May 23, 1937 in Ljubljana ) was a Slovenian literary and cultural historian.

The son of a peddler attended high school in Ljubljana, where he had contact with the bourgeois-liberal circle around Ivan Tavčar and the pioneers of modern Slavic literature ( Josip Murn , Ivan Cankar , Oton Župančič and Dragotin chain ). After graduating from high school, he studied Slavic Studies from 1898 to 1902 with Vatroslav Jagić in Vienna. After a study trip through Russia, Poland and Germany, he got a position at the court library in Vienna in 1905, which he held until 1919.

With the establishment of the University of Ljubljana, Prijatelj was appointed one of the first full professors in Slovenia. He taught modern Slavic literature with a special focus on Slovene literature. Disappointed, he withdrew from political and cultural-political activities in the 1920s. He stood out in particular with writings on Slovene literature, as well as translating from Russian.
