“…These maps today have significance primarily because of the study of medieval placenames and geographical representations of the Balkan Peninsula in European geography in the age of humanism and the Renaissance. By studying the toponyms, it is possible to look at the context of the map, what was the focus of the cartographer's interest, what his priorities were (Gašperic, 2010;Douglas, 2014). The choice of toponym reveals subjective motives and the purpose of the ticket (Vuolteenaho & Ainiala, 2010;Fuchs, 2015).…”

Martin Waldseemüller has a special place in the history of European cartography and geography, due to the original cartographic works that influenced the expansion of the geographical horizons of Europeans in the 16th century. In the introductory section, the author gives an overview of his most important works, which still attract the attention of researchers in the field of historical geography, historical cartography, toponomastics and related scientific disciplines. Author then analyzes the text and context of Waldzemiler's maps. The aim of this work is to shed new light on geographical knowledge of the Balkan Peninsula and Serbian countries in the age of Humanism and the Renaissance, based on an analysis of Martin Waldseemüller's geographic maps from the early 16th century. Special attention is paid to the contents of the map Tabula moderna Bossine, Servie, Gretiae et Sclavonie, from 1507.

“…Among the more important cartographic products of this era, also because of the latest research on it (Gašperič 2010) and a modern annotated facsimile edition (Gašperič, Orožen Adamič and Šumrada 2012), one cannot overlook the map of the Illyrian Provinces, a political entity under Napoleon Bonaparte with Ljubljana as its capital. At the order of the governor-general of the Illyrian Provinces, Auguste de Marmont, this map was produced in 1812, during the four-year French administration of Slovenian territory, by the military cartographer of Italian origin Gaetano di Palma.…”

This work discusses Slovenian geographical names: endonyms in Slovenia and in border areas inhabited by Slovenians in neighboring countries, and Slovenian exonyms used in Slovenian to describe geographical features outside the Slovenian settlement area. First, it gives a historical overview of dealing with geographical names in Slovenia and especially emphasizes their scholarly and cartographic significance. Then it presents macrotoponyms and microtoponyms, especially geographical names in Slovenian normative guides, names of countries, and foreign exonyms for Slovenian endonyms. All of this is connected with the United Nations Group of Experts on Geographical Names (UNGEGN) and the Slovenian Government Commission for the Standardization of Geographical Names. The former body handles geographical names globally and the latter nationally.

“…This last article also examines geographical names and historical cartography, which was included as a source or tool in multiple articles, but has only rarely been an independent area of research. Exceptions are articles on cartographic representations of Slovenia over time (Ga{peri~ 2007), Gaetan Palma's 1812 map of the Illyrian Provinces (Ga{peri~ 2010) and the atlas Atlant in connection with Slovenian ethnic consciousness (Urbanc et al 2006). In the treatment of geographical names, the issue of exonyms has been at the forefront.…”

Evening in the southern part of the Ljubljana Marsh.Ve~erni pogled na ju`ni del Ljubljanskega barja. ABSTRACT: This article presents the position of human geography, landscape ecology, and environmental protection and how these areas have developed over the sixty years that the journal Acta geographica Slovenica/Geografski zbornik has been published. The goal is to present the development and changes in content orientation, changes in research approaches, and changes in article authorship. The overview shows the development of these research disciplines in Slovenia and the research orientations of researchers at the ZRC SAZU Anton Melik Geographical Institute. During the time that the journal has been published, there has been a perceptible shift from defining and analyzing geographical features to a problem-oriented approach, and towards seeking cause-and-effect connections and responses to current social events. In this process, previously dominant individual contributions have been complemented by articles that were the fruits of joint labor and, alongside various Slovenian contributions, the number and thematic diversity of articles by international contributors has increased. Physical and regional geography will be presented in separate articles. BOJAN ERHARTI^
