Presented are the perceptions of different foreigners who came to Slovene lands in the past or in the present time, as shown in Slovene folk narratives. Despite often stereotyped picture of the Others, the research demonstrates an immense complexity of these narratives and the fact that they tell more about Us than about Them. The book ('The Mysteriou Stranger and the Demonic Enemy. “The Other” and Otherness in Slovene Folk Narratives') brings a theoretical overview of the current research on otherness in folklore studies and contextualizes the examples into a wider international folkloristic, anthropological and historical frames. Stories about the Turks, the Napoleon’s French and the Huns reflect an interweaving of historical facts, archetypical imageries of the dangerous Foreigner and ideological influences. These narratives are strongly embedded into the landscape and reinforce the sense of a common identity of its members. The imagery of historic aggressors is understandably quite different from the imagery of Jews and the Roma, with whom the people of the Slovene lands have had a completely different kind of contact.The same goes for contemporary foreigners from other countries. Nevertheless, they all display a high level of stereotypization, generalization and projection of fears upon “the Other”. V monografiji so na podlagi slovenske slovstvene folklore analizirani prikazi različnih tujcev, ki so bili prisotni na slovenskem ozemlju v preteklosti ali pa so prisotni še danes. Kljub pogosto stereotipizirani podobi tujcev, je raziskava pokazala, da se v pripovedih skriva izredna globina in kompleksnost, predvsem pa ta podoba pove več o Nas kot o Njih. Monografija prinaša teoretski pregled dosedanjih raziskav o drugosti v folkloristiki ter izbrane primere Drugih iz slovenske folklore umešča v širši mednarodni okvir s folklorističnega, antropološkega in zgodovinskega zornega kota. Zgodbe o Turkih, Napoleonovih Francozih in Hunih odražajo preplet zgodovinskih dejstev, arhetipskih predstav o nevarnih tujcih in ideoloških vplivov. Te povedke so močno vpete v fizični prostor in kot materializirani opomniki na njeno preteklost krepijo identitetno pripadnost predstavnikov skupnosti. Prikaz zgodovinskih agresorjev v slovenskem izročilu je seveda nekoliko drugačen od prikaza Judov in Romov, s katerimi so bili prebivalci slovenskega ozemlja v povsem drugačnem stiku.

The Land of Shadows was first conceived as a complementary resource for History classes in Slovenian high schools. It served to complement to the patchy Holocaust teaching resources. It consists of two parts: the first part features a historical overview of anti-Semitism and eventually the Holocaust in Europe, which is followed by an account of the situation in Slovenia. The authors relied on the life-story of Mrs Erika Fürst, one of the Holocaust survivors from Prekmurje, Slovenia. In creating a compelling and touching narrative, the authors used visual material from the archives and from various publications depicting the period and the problematic, notably excerpts from two graphic novels: Art Speigelman’s Maus, Jason Lutes’ Berlin. Dežela senc je berilo za uporabo pri pouku zgodovine v slovenskih osnovnih in tudi srednjih šolah. V prvem delu so predstavljene zgodovinske razmere, ki so vodile do antisemitizma in holokavsta v Evropi, v drugem pa so podrobneje predstavljene slovenske razmere. Podrobneje je opisana izkušnja preživele interniranke Erike Fürst, posebna pozornost pa je namenjena izboru slikovnega gradiva, med katerim so tudi odlomki iz dveh grafičnih novel: Maus Arta Speigelmana in Berlin (knjiga 1 in 2) Jasona Lutesa. Prva, nedopolnjena izdaja je izšla leta 2012, tudi v angleščini.

Študija osvetljuje historični vidik judovske navzočnosti v prekmurskem (in slovenskem) prostoru od poznega srednjega veka do danes, oblikovanje modernega antisemitizma konec 19. stoletja, predvsem pa dolgoročne posledice deportacij prekmurskih Judov. Avtor razblini nekatere stereotipne predstave o judovski ekskluzivni gospodarski dejavnosti in izriše zanimivo topografijo judovskega družabnega in kulturnega življenja na območju Prekmurja. Bolj kot na samo fizično uničenje judovske skupnosti zaradi deportacij, ropanj in pobojev se osredotoča na posledice uničenja nekdanje gospodarske in družbene elite.
