Abstract

The author emphasizes the significance of the scientific work of Dr Milica Kacin Wohinz for Slovenian and Italian historiography. Apart from her research work, she educated her younger colleagues and opened for them a way into the Slovenian archives, at a time when most of the Italian ones were still inaccessible. The paper includes an extract from an article, symbolically entitled 'Peace', which Elio Apih from Trieste, another Nestor of the history of 'frontier Fascism', published in 1945, in the paper L'idea Liberale under the pseudonym of Lorenzo Savelli. In the article he firmly advocated 'mutual understanding' together with 'the recognition of the other as equal to oneself.'
