Abstract:

The paper raises the question of the relationship between the Christian religion and Bulgarian literature as it is regarded as one of the “big questions” in modern Bulgarian culture. This article takes / assumes as its starting point an established belief, one that has been repeatedly discredited, that Bulgarian literature is “quite poor in terms of philosophical and moral-religious motives” (Boyan Penev). The notion of “small nation,” which is a reference to a famous concept by Miroslav Hroch, serves as a call to reconsider traditionally accepted classifications and taxonomies in specific per

Abstract:

The aim of the paper is an attempt to problematise the concept of Bulgarian Orthodox identity in relation to the national “great narrative” and the role of literature and literary studies, and as a result, to go beyond the traditional research approach to the notion of Bulgarian religiosity. Two observations serve as a starting point: 1) the idea of religion / religiosity is one of the main themes of the discourse of the national elite; 2) Bulgarians commonly declare attachment to the Orthodox tradition, but the percentage of believers is low; therefore, the sociological conceptualisations bas

The article is a case study of the life, work and ideas of the Bulgarian political and religious figure Christo Oustabachieff (1871–1953). Beginning his career as a financial official, political activist and founder of one of the first xenophobic organizations, after the First World War he devoted himself entirely to religious activities: he founded the “Good Samaritan” Religious Society (1921), became leader and ideologist of the Orthodox Holy Society for Spiritual Renewal of the Bulgarian people (1924), of the "Greater (Peaceful) Bulgaria" Union (Political Party) (1926–1944), of the "St. Joh

Abstract:

The type of poetry practiced by Jan Kochanowski is entirely foreign to Bulgarian literature, which until the mid-19th century was mainly devoted to religious writing and was not significantly influenced by Western literature. Nevertheless, the works of our Renaissance master are known in Bulgaria as they have been translated into Bulgarian since the 1980s. Jan Kochanowski's texts were translated by two outstanding translators: Ivan Valev and Panayot Karagyozov. The article includes an analysis of the translations by both translators – its aim is to indicate the translation strategies they use,

As a result of three decades of social-cultural transformation, Bulgarian literature and practice of religious education though still rare is increasing and improving. As the Church recovers, local parishes, monasteries, and convents become visibly re-socialised and motivated again to provide more adequate pastoral care for all ages. This study explores the importance of informal improvisation and innovation as an approach, in the best interest of children and youth, at a time when an effective, regulated mass public religious education system in Bulgaria is not likely to appear soon.

Traditionally, the dialects located outside our state borders are defined as "mixed" dialects.

The "mixed" character of the territorial speech is most noticeable at the lexical level, since the lexical paradigm of the dialect is the one that changes the fastest, because it is most susceptible to external influences, which allows politically biased spe

ABSTRACT: The Bulgarian-French writer Julia Kristeva's Murder in Byzantium (2004) and Turkish novelist Elif Şafak's The Bastard of Istanbul (2006) show how both secular and veiled women become the ground upon which Turkey and France build their national identities. In Murder , the two narrators—the French journalist, Stephanie Delacour, and the unnamed narrator—associate secularism with modernization and progress, and Islam with backwardness and gender inequality. A financially independent world traveler, Stephanie constructs her identity as a foil to the allegedly subservient headscarved Turk

Abstract:

There is a proposition in palaeoslavistics that the reconstructed prototype of the Izbornik of 1076 is a composition designated as the Kniazheskii Izbornik, which originated from the time of the Bulgarian Tsar Peter (927–969). This article presents an overview of the contents of three manuscripts, which are copies of texts in the so-called Kniazheskii Izbornik: No. 162 from the collection of the Moscow Theological Academy, from the 15th century, Russian origin; No. 189 from the collection of the Hilandar Monastery and which is composed of two parts: Part 1 from the beginning of the 17th centur

Abstract:

The paper traces the formation and development of the image of Byzantium and the concept “byzantism” in the Russian journalistic literature of the mid-second half of the 19th century. It is shown that the impetus for the formation of this concept was in the essays by Alexander Herzen, where “byzantism” was loaded with negative connotations. The article starts from Pavel Annenkov's scheme, which suggests that Alexei Khomyakov, a thinker equal to Herzen but of the opposite charge, was, in contrast to Herzen, an admirer of Byzantium. It is argued that Ivan Kireevsky carried out the Byzantine-cent

The paper analyzes the origin and cultural semantics of the Chuvash demononyms as components of the linguistic world landscape by studying lexicographic and folklore sources and archives. The research was carried out within the contemporary sphere of philology, dealing with the analysis of language and folklore as a cultural code of an ethnos. This interdisciplinary sphere prioritizes studying the linguistic world landscape as a part of the conceptual world landscape of the ethnos above other things. Therefore, it seems relevant to consider where the demononyms of the Chuvash language originat

It has been found that the socio-ethical portrait of the Volodymyr the Saint is built with the help of fifteen laudatory epithets (блаженыи, свѧтыи, страньнолюбьць, etc.), which implement the semantics of devotion to the Christian faith, righteousness, divine holiness, benevolence, respect, tru
