A Medley of National Favourites. Things That Make Slovenes Shine
Salted with the words of Benedict Anderson: to the Slovene nation, a love of Carniolan sausages, the Vače Situla, accordions and gibanica cakes “have an aura of fatality”,
Peppered with Raymond Williams: that Carniolan sausages, the Vače Situla, accordions and gibanica reproduce a “structure of national feeling”, and
Served with Karl Marx: these grandes dames of the Slovene nation weigh
as they must on the brains of living Slovenes.
