Članek prikaže kratko življenjsko pot prvega slovenskega časnikarja in prvega urednika Slovenskega naroda. Poudarek je na njegovem mariborskem obdobju, ki se začne z letom 1867, ko je kot 26-letni študent vstopil kot koncipient v odvetniško pisarno uglednega mariborskega pravnika dr. Ferdinanda Dominkuša, in že naslednje leto prevzel urednikovanje novoustanovljenega liberalnega časopisa Slovenski narod, ki je 2. aprila 1868 začel izhajati v Mariboru. Skozi arhivsko gradivo, časopisne zapise, literaturo in spomine je predstavljeno njegovo delovanje v krogu mladih štajerskih politikov. Kot urednik je Tomšič k sodelovanju povabil odlične sodelavce: Franca Celestina, Frana Erjavca, Frana Levca, Frana Levstika, Josipa Vošnjaka in druge ter si prizadeval za postavitev prve slovenske tiskarne v Mariboru. Zgodnja smrt in aktivnosti za postavitev Tomšičevega spomenika v Mariboru zaključujeta prispevek.

History and Ethnography, Maribor 92=57(2021), 1, pp. 9–23


The article traces the short life of the first Slovene professional journalist and the first editor of the Slovenski narod (Slovene Nation), the first Slovene daily. It focuses on his Maribor period, which begins in 1867 when, as a 26-year-old student, he joined the law office of the prominent Maribor lawyer Dr. Ferdinand Dominkuš as a trainee lawyer, and took over in the following year the editorship of the newly founded liberal newspaper Slovenski narod (Slovene Nation), which began publishing in Maribor on 2 April 1868. His activities and work in the circle of young Styrian politicians are presented through archival material, newspaper records, literature and memoirs. As an editor, Tomšič cooperated with excellent colleagues, including Franc Celestin, Fran Erjavec, Fran Levc, Fran Levstik, Josip Vošnjak and others, and strived for the establishment of the first Slovenian printing house in Maribor. His early death and activities for the erection of the Tomšič Memorial in Maribor conclude the article.
