READING IN FOREST LIBRARIES: THE BOTANICAL GARDEN OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MARIBOR
READING IN FOREST LIBRARIES: THE BOTANICAL GARDEN OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MARIBOR06.06.24
Tuesday, 11 June 2024, 17:00, Botanical Garden of the University of Maribor
This year's Tourism Day will be celebrated by the Slovenia Forest Service in cooperation with the Tourist Association of Slovenia, the Slovenian Institute for Adult Education, and the Forestry Library (Slovenian Forestry Institute) by inviting everyone to read in the forest. The University of Maribor Library is joining the initiative with several events aimed at promoting reading culture and fostering a positive attitude towards nature. We are also participating in the National Month of Joint Reading, which this year focuses on reading in public spaces (more at: https://nmsb.pismen.si).
For the first forest library reading we have chosen the Botanical Garden of the University of Maribor as the location. We will feature a book by Diane Adriaenssen about the life and work of the De Belder couple, renowned dendrologists and horticulturists. Jelena De Belder Kovačič is a world-renowned plant breeder, horticulturist, and dendrologist, originally from the Maribor area. The book, Jelena and Robert de Belder, Noble as Mother Nature, was published in 2008 by Pivec Publishing.
The event will be moderated by Boža Janžekovič, a librarian at the University of Maribor Library. Metka Pivec, an assistant at the Botanical Garden, will introduce Jelena de Belder Kovačič and the plants in the Botanical Garden associated with her. We will read and discuss some interesting facts from the book, including the story of the witch hazel plant named after her, which also grows in the Botanical Garden of the University of Maribor.
The meeting point is at 17:00 in front of the entrance to the Botanical Garden, from where we will walk to the shaded benches at the edge of the garden. In case of bad weather, the event will take place in the multi-purpose room of the Botanical Garden.
Entrance to the Botanical Garden is free for event visitors.
The event will be conducted in Slovene.
LECTURE COMMEMORATING PRIMOŽ TRUBAR DAY 2024
LECTURE COMMEMORATING PRIMOŽ TRUBAR DAY 202404.06.24
Saturday, 8 June 2024, 11:00, Glazer Hall
On the occasion of this year's Primož Trubar Day, Associate Prof. Dr. Aleš Maver will give a lecture titled On the Trail of Dangerous Relationships: Religion, (Literary) Language, and Neighbours in Selected Slavic Nations.
Every 8th of June since 2014, the University of Maribor Library, the Union of Cultural Societies of Maribor, and the Public Fund for Cultural Activities of Maribor have commemorated Primož Trubar memorial day. The aim of these events is to strengthen awareness of Primož Trubar's work and significance for the Slovenian and European cultural and spiritual space. We strive to bring the latest scholarship in trubarology and its scholars closer to a broader audience, to promote knowledge of his works and the historical context in which they were written, and last but not least, to highlight Maribor's contribution to this legacy. The limitations posed by the pandemic forced us to move online in 2021, transitioning from the University of Maribor Glazer Hall to the virtual realm. This shift marked the beginning of the Rajhman Lecture Series, inaugurated by Dr. Fanika Krajnc-Vrečko. We are now concluding this series with a lecture by Dr. Aleš Maver. All four invited Rajhman Lectures are dedicated to this year's centenary of the birth of the renowned Maribor trubarologist, Dr. Jože Rajhman.
