A volume of sermons by the Slovenian Capuchin friar Ferdinand of Ljubljana (cca. 1682–1744) was discovered recently in the Capuchin monastery of Škofja Loka. Among the sermons for Lent, one is especially valuable from the point of view of literary forms and devices: the one that was given as an introduction to the penitential procession – the Passion play of Škofja Loka in 1722. The article outlines how the thematic elements of this dramatic and thrilling sermon encircle the Passion Play as the fundamental interpretive framework of its original religious meaning.

The paper presents three Slovenian 19th century epic poems, based upon older legendary folk tradition on the miraculous beginning of the pilgrimage to Virgin Mary in Dobrova near Ljubljana. Although they are written in the manner of romantic epic poetry, some connections with earlier literary tradition can be observed. The paper outlines the way how the three poems are thematically bound to the tradition of pilgrim songs, used for the devotion of Virgin Mary, from the Slovenian baroque manuscripts.
