In this paper, I examine the basic theoretical and methodological views of Andrej Brvar's foreword in the anthology of Slovene poetry in prose Brez verzov, brez rim (Without Verses, Without Rhymes, 2011) in the light of changing stylistic periods and directions, as well as their cultural context. With regard to critical reception this genre has remained on the margin of the Slovene literary system and therefore the present anthology is an important attempt to evaluate it. For Slovene poets and prose writers, it is one of the ways to modernise both verse and the prose sentence.
