The nervous and forgetful heroes: Homo sovieticus slovenicus adventures of the Soviet Slovene in Titovina, part 7.

The article discusses the psychological trauma experienced by partisans during World War II, focusing on the phenomenon known as 'jurišniki'—a form of trance-like state where partisans would appear to fight enemies without causing harm to others or themselves.

Kljub napadalnim histeričnim izbruhom med napadi praviloma niso poškodovali ne drugih ne sebe.

Pa ne samo jurišniki

Toda jurišniki so bili samo najbolj viden del travmatske poškodovanosti pripadnikov partizanskega gibanja. Bolj množične posledice psihičnih zlomov zasledimo v življenjepisih, ki so jih komunisti pisali neposredno po koncu vojne. Izbrali smo nekaj pričevanj predvojnih članov Komunistične partije in nosilcev partizanske spomenice 1941.

Nekateri so se zlomili že med vojno. Še več pa je izjav, ki imajo skupna imenovalca živčnost in pozabljanje. Nekateri pričevalci te težave neposredno povezujej...
