Ožbalt, Irma M. [Marija A.I. Ožbalt]. 1981.* "Ivan Cankar and Morley Callaghan: A study in contrastive parallelism," PSS 1978: 45-66.
Ožbalt, Irma M. 1981: "Ivan Cankar and Morley Callaghan: a study in contrastive parallelism" This article analyzes parallels between two writers from very different backgrounds. Still there are more similarities than dissimilarities. Three types of parallels are drawn: at the biographical level, in outlook, and in literary characters. The similarities at the latter level are found to be the most striking. The similarities are traced to their common European heritage and similar lifestyles and temperaments.

Ožbalt, Irma M. 1981: "The theme of the unwed mother in Slovene literature" The article deals with the motif of the unmarried mother and her illegitimate child. Three different types of unwed mother are presented, relating to different periods in Slovene history: the romantic; the frightened, semi-insane; and the healthy and brave. Examples are, respectively, from Prešeren, Cankar, and Prežihov Voranc. All three authors witnessed the persecution of unwed mothers, victims in the society of their time, and sympathized with them.

Title: Emigrants in Ivan Cankar's fiction
Subject Headings: Emigration; Immigration; Literary fiction
Publication: SS
Volume: 4
Number: 2
Year: 1983
Type: Article
Ožbalt, Irma M. 1983.* "Emigrants in Ivan Cankar's fiction," SS 4/2: 99-111.
Ožbalt, Irma M. 1983: "Emigrants in Ivan Cankar's fiction" The article discusses Cankar's compassionate treatment of Slovene emigrants to North America, and Czech immigrants in Vienna. An emigrant in his understanding is a wretched wanderer with no real homeland; a destroyed person in an adopted land, always poor. Both the selfish adopted society and the poor native land are responsible for the emigrant's tragedy. In Cankar, it is always a mistake for one to leave one's own land, no matter how poor it is.

Number: 1-2
Year: 1987
Type: Article
Ožbalt, Irma M. 1987.* "Stubble fields in purple: Impressionism in Prežihov Voranc's stories," SS 9/1-2 (Lencek Festschrift): 165-172.
Ožbalt, Irma M. 1987: "Stubble fields in purple: Impressionism in Prežihov Voranc's stories" The author identifies impressionism as an essential element of Voranc's "simple stories of simple folk." Previous critics labeled Voranc a social realist. considering his descriptions of nature as frames for socio-political messages rather than as the cores of his stories. Ožbalt uses examples from Voranc's stories "Levi devžej," "Prvi maj," and "Ajdovo strnišče" to show impressionistic and symbolistic devices that dominate social themes.
