Z exhibition on the 220th anniversary of Schiller's death We would like to draw attention to his presence in Slovenian culture and his influence on our literature and theater.
The first literary translations date back to the 1840s, when Slovenians did not yet have the conditions for such demanding stage challenges as staging Schiller's works. The conditions for theatrical art in the Slovene language improved with the establishment of the Dramatic Society (1867). This important substantive and organizational shift was largely due to the singer, actor and director Josip Nolli, who, exactly 150 years ago, in the spring of 1875, staged Bandits in his own translation. In the following decades, the first tragedy was followed by other dramas: Intrigue and love, Mary Stuart, William Tell, The Virgin of Orleans and Don CarlosIn a century and a half, we can count almost fifty productions.
