The dissertation covers the study of Slovene journal reports during Christmas in the time of
World War I, which is put in the context of the conditions on Slovenian grounds right before
and during the war. The dissertation gives an insight into journal reports, specifically the ones
which wrote about Christmas topics, and to what extent these newspapers covered them. It also
provides an answer to questions such as whether reporting was dedicated to the civilian
population only or were reports also written for soldiers, what was the editorial attitude towards
the war like – was the war praised or looked down on? All these questions are answered by
analysing four selected newspapers, namely the liberal Slovenski narod, the catholic Slovenec
and Domoljub, and the teaching bulletin Učiteljski tovariš.
