They were brothers, who had grown up near Thessaloniki, and they therefore knew Slavonic as well as Greek. Cyril had invented a new alphabet that was better suited to the Sla- vonic languages than the Greek or the Latin. Using this alphabet, the missionaries were able to put across the Bible and other sacramental texts in a form that could be understood by the Slavonic tribes, even though this differed considerably from their everyday speech. This form of language is known today as “Old Church Slavonic”. It is closely related to the modern Slavonic languages, especially Bulgarian. Cyril and Methodius are still honoured in Bulgaria as the “apostles of the Slavs”. Their disciples, who sought refuge in the Bulgarian Empire when the mission came to a violent end, created centres of learning there, in which they carried on the Slavonic written cultural tradition begun by Cyril and Methodius. Both young people and adults were taught in these schools, although it would be an anachronism to speak of an early form of adult education. Nonetheless, the part that Cyril and Methodius still play in the Bulgarian consciousness makes them appropriate patrons of adult education and Lifelong learning in that country. The cover picture shows the monument to the two saints outside the National Library in Sofia. In their hands they are holding a roll with the Glagolitic alphabet created by Cyril.

  • Pocket Diary 2015 the Bottled Wasp
    THE BOTTLED WASP POCKET DIARY 2015 THE BOTTLED WASP POCKET DIARY 2015 Welcome to the 2015 Bottled Wasp Pocket Diary, a fundraising project in aid of the Anarchist Black Cross network and other groups involved in the prisoner support arena. The aim of the project is to create a self-sustaining template for production that will feature different areas of radical political history and practice each year, and that will hopefully be taken on by a dif- ferent group from a rotating network of activists. Last year’s edition of the Wasp, with its coverage of the hidden history of the contributions of anarchists and other radicals to both the avant-garde and mainstream arts around the world, with its cover by London street artist Stik, proved something of a success. So, we hope to do even better this year with this anti- fascist history edition, which features numerous individuals and collective actions and events from across the whole history of the resistance to ultra-nationalism, fascism and Nazism; wher- ever and when ever it has raised its ugly head. If you enjoy the diary, we hope that you will help spread the news far and wide and help make the Bottled Wasp a success in future years. “La cosa dannosa del fascismo è che induce gli imbecilli a cred- ersi molto furbi. Quanto più uno è idiota tanto più il fascismo lo fa sentire orgoglioso di sé.” [What is harmful about fascism is that it causes fools to believe they’re very smart. The more he is an idiot , the more fascism makes him feel proud of himself.] - Osvaldo Soriano in ‘Fútbol’ (1998).

Ivanova OCCULT COMMUNISM: CULTURE, SCIENCE AND SPIRITUALITY IN LATE SOCIALIST BULGARIA BY VENETA T. IVANOVA DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2017 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Maria N. Todorova, Chair Professor Diane P. Koenker Associate Professor Zsuzsa Gille Associate Professor Behrooz Ghamari-Tabrizi Professor Peter Fritzsche Abstract “Occult Communism” explores the unlikely infusion of state-sponsored spiritualism into the materialist ideology of Bulgarian late communism. In the 1970s, Minister of Culture Lyudmila Zhivkova initiated grandiose state programs to inject the “occult” into Bulgaria’s national culture, art, science and even political philosophy. Inspired by her Eastern religious beliefs, she sought to ‘breed’ a nation of “all-round and harmoniously developed individuals,” devoted to spiritual self-perfection, who would ultimately “work, live and create according to the laws of beauty.” My project focuses on how Zhivkova translated her religio-philosophical worldview into state policies. I examine three realms of what I have termed “occult communism:” Zhivkova’s domestic and international cultural initiatives; occult religiosity and the mystical movement known as the White Brotherhood; and occult science as embodied by the Scientific Institute of Suggestology. I contend that as quixotic as Zhivkova’s vision was, her policies contributed to the liberalization of art and culture in a period that has long been associated exclusively with stagnation and decay.
