About this person
His collection Deveta dežela is frequently cited as the first book-length Expressionist poetry collection in Slovene, while the epic cycle Trentarski študent - issued in book form as Sholar iz Trente (1939) - is considered among the most ambitious Slovene epic attempts of the first half of the 20th century. In 1946 he was convicted in a political trial and imprisoned; although pardoned the same year, his books were withdrawn from general access and he was sidelined professionally under postwar library-purge policies.
