The purpose I pursue with this book is to compare the information that has come down to us from old writers and to draw some conclusions about the people who spread the Bulgarian state to the Balkans, without resorting to the numerous contemporary books that I have read and that fill my library. I do this not out of disrespect for the tremendous work of contemporary Bulgarian writers and historians, but out of a desire to make an independent assessment of events and to draw my own conclusions about the relationship and sequence of events and their consequences by reading only older authors. I hope the book will find a ... |

"Преди няколко месеца препрочетох тази книга. Не бях я чела от първото й издание през 1936 г. Не очаквах толкова да ми хареса. Твърде много писатели заявяват, че не могат да осъществят напълно намеренията си, и че творбите им са в известна степен недовършени. Не споделям това мнение и според мен то е извинимо само за начинаещи, защото никой не се ражда с "талант", т.е. уменията трябва да се придобият. Писателите се създават, не се раждат. По-точно писателите сами се създават. За "Ние, живите", първата ми книга (и в по-малка степен за творчеството ми преди "Изворът"), смятах, че ... |

There is less than one hundred Thracian stone-built under-tumular constructions in Bulgaria that are usually called tombs. Most of them were found half-demolished or were demolished subsequently. Thirteen such buildings were constructed in the Kazanlak valley (fig. 1). Their number rises to fifteen, it we add another two constructions, which are not so impressive but possess a high scientific value. They are concentrated within a limited geographic region and in terms of statistics they are considerably more than any other area of Bulgaria. Taking this into consideration and knowing that some fifty years ago the only ... |
