Abstrakt     Josip Ipavic (1873-1921), composer and doctor took a distinct place in the Slovene cultural history as the author of the first Slovene ballet Možiček (The Manikin, 1901) and numerous High Romantic songs. He found the literary value of texts of minor importance; first of all he was looking for texts that would suit his confessional ballads and elegies. (1905-1910) Ipavic composed his largest score, the opera Princesa Vrtoglavka (The Crackbrained Princess). The libretto was taken from one of the plays, written by Mara von Berks, a well known lady writer at that time. Because of his innovative dramaturgy of abrupt cuts, partly originating from Flaubert's La Tentation de Saint Antoine (Temptations of Saint Antoin) (the scene of Sphinx and Himere was taken from this work), Princesa Vrtoglavka has not been performed yet, though this play, as well as other compositions of Ipavic were highly appreciated by the prominent musicians like Leoš Janaček, Alexander Zemljinsky, Wilhelm Kienzel and Oskar Nedbal. Because of his incurrable disease, Josip Ipavic stopped composing before the first world war. While he was almost completely forgotten in Slovenia, the Germans consider him as a "Slovene Mozart".
