Overview
Novi glas (literally "New Voice") is a Slovene-language weekly newspaper published in Gorizia (Gorica), in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region of northeastern Italy. It has been issued since 1996 by the Goriška Mohorjeva družba, a Slovene cultural and publishing association based in Gorizia. The paper is an important medium for the Catholic-oriented segment of the Slovene national community living in Italy, a minority that has historically maintained its own press, schools, and cultural institutions on both sides of the Italo-Slovene border. The weekly traces its lineage to two predecessor publications: the Trieste-based Novi list and the Gorizia-based Katoliški glas. Reflecting this dual heritage, Novi glas maintains editorial offices in both Gorizia and Trieste, the two principal centres of Slovene life in Italy. Its coverage spans local and regional news, culture, religion, community affairs, and the activities of Slovene institutions in the Goriška and Tržaška areas. As a community weekly rather than a mass-circulation daily, Novi glas occupies a niche but durable position in the Slovene minority media landscape of Italy, alongside titles such as Primorski dnevnik, Mladika, and Novi Matajur. It is published in Slovene and circulates primarily among Slovene-speaking readers in Italy and across the border in Slovenia. The newspaper's online presence at noviglas.eu extends its reach beyond its print readership.
History
Novi glas is a Slovene-language weekly published in Gorizia, Italy, and issued since 1996 by the Goriška Mohorjeva družba, a Slovene cultural and publishing association based in Gorizia. The paper serves the Catholic-oriented part of the Slovene national community in Italy, a minority with a long tradition of its own press and cultural institutions in the borderlands between Italy and Slovenia. The weekly's origins lie in two predecessor publications: the Trieste-based Novi list and the Gorizia-based Katoliški glas. This dual heritage is reflected in the paper's structure, as its editorial offices are located in both Gorizia and Trieste, the two main centres of Slovene community life in Italy. The title "Novi glas" ("New Voice") signals continuity with that earlier Slovene-language press tradition while marking a new publication established in the mid-1990s. Since its founding, Novi glas has functioned as a community newspaper, reporting on local and regional affairs, culture, religion, and the activities of Slovene institutions in the Goriška and Tržaška areas. It appears alongside other Slovene minority titles in Italy such as Primorski dnevnik, Mladika, and Novi Matajur. The paper maintains an online presence at noviglas.eu, where its current content is published.
