Washington Irving played a crucial role in the development of the American short story. His tales featuring American characters and American settings represented a giant step forward in the development of an independent American literature. His tales have so far been translated into Slovene a few times. The objectives of my paper were to establish the number of Slovene translations of Irving's work, record pertinent information regarding the translations, evaluate the translators' achievement in terms of their ability to present the period and the characters relative to the original texts as well as their ability to transplant Irving's unique humor and finally research Slovene critical response on Irving.
