Публикацията отразява само личните виждания на автора и от Комисията не може да бъде търсена отговорност за използването на съдържащата се в нея информация.” 2 3 Short Bulgarian History The oldest traces of human presence in our land are from Paleolithic Age –before 1.6 million years. Archaeological finds in the ―Kozarnika‖ cave, near the town of Belogradchik, testify to the life of the first inhabitants of southeastern Europe. With the emergence of agriculture (VII-VI millennium BC) in the valleys of Struma and Mesta rivers, the live of people here is transformed. Dwellings of stone and wood, permanent settlements and tribes appeared. The discovery of copper noted a peak in the agriculture in our land. Open in 1972, Varna treasure is evidence of advanced human relationships - property differentiation. In the III-II millennium BC, with the arrival of the nomadic tribes of the north and merging them with the local farmers, formed a large tribal community - the Thracians. Their culture is described by the ancient Greeks. The largest Thracian tribe- Odrysaeans, founded in V century BC their country, between the Maritsa River and Black Sea, led by king Teres. Thracians established a rich culture, although they have no script. Many lavish tombs in our lands reveal the sacraments of faith in the afterlife. Top of the art of the ancient Thracian is tomb of Kazanlak . 4 Since 1979, Kazanlak Tomb is in the List of World Heritage of UNESCO. Thracians demonstrated exceptional craft skills in the processing of gold and silver.

  • A 'Balkan Folk Dance'
    DANS ÇALIŞMALARI ÖZEL SAYI a ‘Balkan folk danCe’ Daniela Ivanova-Nyberg phenomenon ın The unıTed sTaTes: a feW analyTıCal oBseRvaTıons1 The purpose of this paper is to share some analytical observations on Balkan folk dance2 activities in the United States. It is to present, together with documentary data, data from my experience as a folk dance researcher and dance teacher. It raises questions about the situation today in terms of participants, dance instructors and repertoire in comparison to the peak of Balkan folk dancing in the 1960s and ‘70s. It argues that the American Balkan folk dance phenomenon—a complex American cultural phenomenon—relates to factors like fashion. The repertoire today is also influenced by recent immigrants from the Balkans, among whom there are many professional musicians and choreographers, introducing sometimes neo-folk music and newly created choreographies. Background of This Paper It took several years and thousands of miles of travel before reaching the point when I could draw conclusions with self-confidence. Besides observations, notes, audio and video documents and active participation in a variety of music and dance events since 2003, I was asking people— folk dance lovers who were my hosts, drivers, food-providers, supporters (many of them, I am happy to say, became my friends later)—a variety of questions related to the American Balkan phenomenon. In parallel to informal conversations and formal interviews, in the period 2004- 2008 I collected data through a ‘Balkan Dance Questionnaire’. In the

    Syllabus of Dance Descriptions STOCKTON FOLK DANCE CAMP – 2019 – FINAL 10/2019 In Memoriam Nelda Drury – 1918-2019 Nelda Drury nurtured the folk dance community in Texas, but her influence in the international folk dance community was felt throughout the United States. She was a dance specialist, her area of expertise being the dances of Mexico, and Central and South America. At the age of five, Nelda gave her first dance performance during a celebration in a small town in Texas. She grew up learning a wide variety of Mexican dances and later studied at the University of Mexico in Mexico City under the late Alura Flores de Angeles. Nelda did extensive research in Mexican, Central American, and South American dance. Her teaching took her throughout the United States, Mexico, the Orient, and Europe, presenting her seminars and Nelda Drury, circa 2014. displaying her dance form. She had a wealth of dance costumes that she collected on her round-the-world travels. She devoted her life to bringing folk dances from around the world to San Antonio specifically, and to Texas in general. She taught at folk dance camps and workshops all over the United States and, in turn, invited teachers she met doing so to teach at the yearly San Antonio Folk Dance Festival that she founded. Nelda taught at Stockton Folk Dance Camp in 1974. Ruth Levin Duree – 1942-2019 Ruth and her husband Richard Duree attended Stockton Folk Dance Camp for many years, most recently in 2014. Ruth met Richard in a Hungarian dance class he was teaching at Coastline College in 1989.

  • Identities in Motion – 60 Years Bulgarian Dances Within Different Political Contexts
    Papers of BAS Humanities and Social Sciences Vol. 1, No 1, 2014 ETHNOMUSICOLOGY IDENTITIES IN MOTION – 60 YEARS BULGARIAN DANCES WITHIN DIFFERENT POLITICAL CONTEXTS Gergana Panova-Tekath Abstract: The Report reviews interpretations of identical dance material in diffe rent historic-political contexts in Bulgaria, and in countries in the West (Germany, Austria, Swit- zerland, Canada and the USA). The international cultural relationships of Bulgaria are pointed out in the course of the review and the role of North America for the approbation of a “chain” for the dissemination of the Bulgarian traditional dances in the last 60 years is presented. On a macro-level the interpretive spiral of the so called “Dancing the Bulga- rian Way” originates in Socialist Bulgaria, reaches North America, from there spreads on to Western Europe, reenters democratic Bulgaria and again returns to the West with the new Bulgarian emigrants. The different models of dancing defined hereunder allow for the comparative study of Societies. At the same time, the ample empirical material serves for the situational analysis of the body’s potential for the unraveling of old and the creation of new meanings. Thus “dancing the Bulgarian way” has been transformed into an optical lens of modernity and an example of nonverbal intra- and inter-cultural communication. Key words:“Dancing the Bulgarian way” in different political contexts, Bulgaria – North America – German speaking countries, “circle dance” and choreography, na- tional identity, intra- and inter-cultural communication through dance. The term “Dancing the Bulgarian way” Many people from the German speaking countries, who dance in their spare time folk dances from different parts and regions of Bulgaria, call this a hobby-pursuit “Bulgarisch Tanzen”, i.e.
