The book addresses the entire literary, professional and creative work of the Slovenian writer Alojz Rebula from the perspective of his study of classical philology, also presenting his reminiscence and reference to the literary, philosophical and conceptual world of Ancient Greece and Rome, from which Rebula gained the aesthetic and conceptual inspiration for his work. From the gathered material the author of the book extracts the philosophical categories, which Alojz Rebula acquired and presented in his works: largely the values of kalokagathije, verum-bonum-pulchrum, ancient ethical approach and a glimpse into metaphysics. The highlight of this concept is the dichotomy between Measure and Mistery, which is consequently the title of the book. In the last chapter the author stops at Rebula's affinity towards the relationship between Antiquity and Christianity demonstrating the writer's attachment to the patristic philosophy.

The paper is a representation of the general features of the development of the population of the town of Koper from the 1890's to the period before the First World War. Unlike previous analyses of Koper demographics of that period, this one is based on the corrected census data and vital statistics from church registers, which excludes prisoners, stillborn babies and some other segments of the population that at certain times distorted the actual dynamic and structural characteristics of Koper demographics. The stages of growth, which included occasional standstills and setbacks, as well as natural and social factors of development are described. The former show a typical pre-industrial demographic regime at least until the middle of the century, however, in the seventies the demographic transition begins.

The paper presents and analyses a population census of the town of Gorizia and its “contado” in 1566, which is even more important and interesting; even more so since it distinguishes the population by gender, age group, and social class (peasants, town people, nobles). The census data are analysed in their different aspects, such as the territorial distribution of the population, its demographic structure and the social peculiarities of the demographic structure. The population data are interpreted by contextualising them into the frame of the economic and population history of the Gorizia region in the 16th century and through a comparison with neighbouring areas. As a means to this end, the paper looks back to the previous period, and by doing so it identifies a factor that created some preconditions for the growth in the second half of the 16th century consisting in the demographic crisis that took place at the end of the 15th century. The most striking figure of the population in the census is a substantial number of children (aged 0–14). The results of the analysis present a picture of a population undergoing rapid growth during a period of positive economic conjuncture, confirming as well as specifying and upgrading the periodization of the economic history of the area.
