In this master's thesis the subject of discussion is world literature of the second half of the 20. century in school curriculum, learning resources and in literature classes in grammar schools. Thesis shows to which extent the literature of the mentioned time is included in the revised school curriculum for Slovene language class in gymnasiums (in 2008) and how much is included in the learning resources, which are used for teaching literature in gymnasiums. I'll also touch on the historic background of the era, which was marked by the World War II, as well as the art movements, which have evolved or prevailed in that time. In the second part of this thesis I've pointed out the shortcomings of the school curriculum, based on the findings of the inclusion in the substantive block. The shortcomings being the lack of female writers, lack of dramatics compared to the poetry and storytelling, as well as deficiency of non-western world authors. Thesis presents proposals, which should correct the shortcomings. One of the proposed texts have also been used in a classroom at the gymnasium.
