Abstract

National and ideological divisions in Slovenia from the middle of the 19th century to the beginning of World War I led to the formation of major cultural and political camps. By enumerating some examples, the author depicts the influence exerted on culture by politics and the effects of censorship. Particular emphasis is placed on the theatre and its related branch: the cinema, as well as on the cultural policies of political parties which influenced the financing of cultural institutions
