Stoyan Atanassov
Колибри
Moyen Age, Temps Modernes. ... "La litterature est un art de dire le reel ou bien de traduire une experience humaine façonnee au gre de l'imagination poetique. À ce titre, elle releve de tout un contexte historique. Celui-ci implique des faits et des phenomenes sociaux, certes, mais aussi une specificite esthetique et une ecriture individuelle.

Bulgaria: Terra europeansis incognita
Ivan Daraktchiev
Дукати
Conceived originally as a tool for familiarizing Western intellectuals with the rich history and culture of Bulgaria and its people, the book presents as well - albeit briefly - the other Balkan nationalities and their interrelations. The case is made for the injustice wrought upon the country by the Great Powers, such that within the last 130 years or so since its liberation from the Ottoman yoke it has been splintered into multiple pieces, each donated to a different neighbour. Specifically, the call is justified for unification between Bulgaria and it's southwestern part that is known under the name of Republic of Macedonia, or FYROM.

Despite a century of scientific inquiry into the nature of these particular moments, their origin has remained a mystery.
