The Russians exiled after the October Revolution yielded exceptional cultural influence, and the cultural capitals of the Russian émigré society hosted outstanding Russian thinkers and artists. For the Russian emigrants abroad, culture was the cornerstone of national identity. Slovenian cultural and academic life was accordingly stamped by the Russian emigrants who had found refuge in Slovenia, despite the difficult circumstances which awaited them on arrival in their new homeland. They had a major impact on Ljubljana’s fledgling university life and on the local development of several artistic disciplines.
