  • Bulgarian Teachers of the Liberation Age
    News, Announcements and Resources Biomath Communications 3 (2016) Biomath Communications www.biomathforum.org/biomath/index.php/conference Bulgarian teachers of the liberation age Maria K. Lovdjieva Museum \Petko and Pencho Slaveikovi", Sofia email: [email protected] Dedicated to the memory of Nestor Markov on the occasion of his 180th birthday anniversary Abstract When browsing through the biographies of the generation of Bulgarian teachers who lived and worked in the years around the liberation-bringing Russo-Turkish war (1877{1878), we see the clear outlines of the impediments blocking the education and development endeavors of the young Bulgarian state. Five centuries after it had been engulfed by the Ottoman empire and severed from European cul- ture, Bulgaria was far behind the times. In this article we review the activities of eleven Bulgarian teachers who lived and worked around the time of liberation from the Ottoman rule. Their lives and activi- ties on the borderline of two epochs strike us with their self-sacrificial efforts to overcome the enormous backwardness of the Bulgarian na- tion. We point out their contribution in the spheres of education and science. The biographies of these Bulgarian teachers present a vivid picture of the times and are an edifying subject to study and remem- ber. Introduction The history of the Bulgarian state, stretching from its establishment Citation: Maria K. Lovdjieva, Bulgarian teachers of the liberation age, http://dx.doi.org/10.11145/bmc.2016.12.237 in the seventh century to the present day, is a chain of upheavals and downfalls. Bulgaria, of all modern European states, is the oldest coun- try to have preserved its name.

  • The Theory of the Hun Origin in Contemporary Bulgaria E
    Вестник СПбГУ. История. 2020. Т. 65. Вып. 4 The Theory of the Hun Origin in Contemporary Bulgaria E. A. Koloskov For citation: Koloskov E. A. The Theory of the Hun Origin in Contemporary Bulgaria. Vestnik of Saint Petersburg University. History, 2020, vol. 65, issue 4, рp. 1245–1258. https://doi.org/10.21638/11701/spbu02.2020.414 The article is devoted to the history of the formation and transformation of the theory of the Huns in contemporary Bulgaria through the prism of the political history of the country from the beginning of the debate about the origin of Bulgarians up to present day. The article exam- ines how political reality impacted the processes of shaping scholarly and educational images, i.e. constructing a “convenient” usable past by the Bulgarian academic and non-academic cir- cles. The main aspect in the study is related to the question of various interpretations of the ethnic origin of the Bulgars, the Huns and the role of the Slavic factor in the ethnogenesis of the contemporary Bulgarians. The milestones of the difficult history of Bulgaria and changes in political regimes have become the reasons for rejecting “Slavic” origin or, in some case, returning to it depending on external and internal circumstances. Today the Hun theory in all its variations and interpretations lies outside the professional scope of academic circles but is becoming the domain for various marginals. However, increasing activity of the right and the far-right in the politics of Europe capitalizing on the 2015 refugee crisis might return to the mainstream of official academic discourse the theory of the Hun The upcoming challenges of foreign policy (Euro-skepticism, ambitious projects outside the EU framework) and internal political issues (the question of national minorities) may also have a significant impact on this issue.

  • The Language Situation in Bulgaria
    Svetla Koeva The language situation in Bulgaria Abstract (English) This paper briefly presents the language situation in Bulgaria and the distribution of different languages within the country. The dynamics of linguistic diversity in the country between 1870 and 2011 is shown. Further, the paper highlights the influence of the internet and media on the acquisition of the Bulgarian language. Finally, the role of education in teaching the Bulgarian language is discussed. Резюме Статията представя накратко езиковата ситуация в България и разпределението на носителите на различни езици на територията на страната. Разглеждат се начините, по които децата усвояват първи и втори език, и се посочват преимуществата на едно- временното усвояване на два езика като първи. Представя се влиянието на медиите и интернет като езикова среда при усвояването на българския език. Накрая се посочва ролята на образованието за ефективното усвояване и използване на българския език. 1. General facts about Bulgarians and the Bulgarian language Bulgarian is the official language of the Republic of Bulgaria. Data provided by the National Statistical Institute1 from the population census of Bulgaria shows that at 1 February 2011, the population was 7,351,633. According to Eurostat,2 at the beginning of 2016 the population was 7,153,800 and at the beginning of 2017 it was 7,101,900. A drop in natural population growth and economic migration are the main factors behind this population decrease of 51,900 people in one year. The 2011 census shows that Bulgarian is the native tongue for 5,659,024 people, or 85.2% of the population; Turkish is the native tongue for 605,802 people, or 9.1% of the population; and Romani for 281,217 people, or 4.2% of the popula- tion.

  • Architectural History of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences Building
    Papers of BAS Humanities and Social Sciences Vol. 6, 2019, No. 2 Architectural history of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences building Stela Tasheva Abstract. The article traces the history of the central building of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences (BAS) as an architectural site. Comparisons are made with similar architectural constructions in Europe. The author examines the chronological stages of the project and construction work, studying data on specific architectural elements and analysing the style, function and features of construction. The focus is on the contribution of architects and the specific (and novel for those periods) characteristics of the building’s typology. The aim of the article is to present an integral picture of the building’s architectural history in the context of the development of Bulgarian architecture in the early years of the 20th century. Keywords: academic building, BAS, Sofia, architecture in the early 20th century Introduction The subject of this study is the central building of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences (BAS), situated at the heart of the Bulgarian capital. The focus of the research is the building’s architectural history, which is related to the more general historiographical narratives on the development of Bulgarian science (the edifice is more than ten years older than Sofia University) and the evolution of the iconic urban image of the city of Sofia. This presentation does not include detailed technical descriptions, calcula- tions or dating; it offers no catalogue listing of documents, blueprints, styles and decorative elements related to the BAS building. The leading aspect in the present study is the architectural perspective: tracing the architects’ concepts and intentions, the choice of functions, zones, materials and solutions, and the interconnected roles of those who ordered the building, its designers, users, ob- servers, and spaces.

ISSN (Online) 2620-066X ▪ https://doi.org/10.32591/coas.ojsh.0301.01001u _________________________________________________________________________ The Impact of 1918 on Bulgaria George Ungureanu University of Pitești, ROMANIA Faculty of Theology, Literature, History and Arts Received: 21 May 2020 ▪ Accepted: 8 July 2020 ▪ Published Online: 25 July 2020 Abstract Among the states that participated in World War I, Bulgaria is an interesting case, being the only Slavic and the only small state allied with the Central Powers. In addition, Bulgaria was the first member of the Quadruple Alliance that admitted their defeat with the Armistice of Thessaloniki (16/29 Sep 1918). The armistice signed in the Greek Macedonia capital ended not just Bulgaria’s three years involvement in the Great War, alongside Germany, Austro-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire, but also a longer period of violent confrontations if we include the two Balkan Wars too (1912-1913). After the implication in these successive conflicts, the small Slavic state had seen significant human and material losses (155,000 deaths on the battlefields, 400,000 wounded, and over 155,000 deaths due to diseases). One in six men aged 20 to 50 lost their lives during the period October 1912 to September 1918. The hereby study deals with the effects of these losses, sufferings and deprivations (doubled by the bitterness of defeat but also by hopes of winning the victor’s benevolence) at different layers: the army, the civilian population, the political life and the diplomacy.

Fig. 26. Bibliogr. 87 names. English language. DOI: https://doi.org/10.7546/RCMTD.2019 The monograph deals with the problems of the methodology and toolkit for a rational choice of design solutions, based on the idea of parallel design. The toolkit for embedding the forecast and optimization procedures into the contour process selection is given. A set of postulates that underlie the rationality of the design decisions taken when creating machine tools is formulated. A method of regulating the composition and specificity of information for the effective evaluation of possible alternatives is proposed. The algorithm of interaction of design procedures and operators with criteria that are included in the system of preferences is shown. The application features of the patent and expert search procedures at the initial stages of creating the cutting machine design are considered. A method for constructing a target tree and the corresponding procedures for systematic consideration of development and improvement trends are proposed. For leading designers, experts in the field of computer-aided design of machines and tools, scientists, lecturers, graduate students and students.

  • Dincho Krastev Anissava Miltenova Andrey Boyadzhiev Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, Sofia, Bulgaria
    Dincho Krastev Anissava Miltenova Andrey Boyadzhiev Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, Sofia, Bulgaria Sofia Corpus of Data of Slavic Manuscripts ABSTRACT Tlie paper is concerned with the development and exploitation of computer corpora of data from the Medieval Slavic manuscripts. The paper stresses on the ways how different information on manuscript studies could be encoded, how that encoding should be represented for interchange, and what kind of methods of searching are used. The further development of the Sofia Computerized Manuscript Corpus of Data is related with the integration of different aspects of language, text and paleography research of medieval Slavic manuscripts. The paper presents some results from the ongoing work and proposes new ideas for the further development of such a projects with Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML) in the framework of the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI). The paper will focus also on standardization problems, copyright questions, teamwork organization and methodological difficulties in the development of electronic resources and their implementation in the university education. The Central Library of Bulgarian Academy of Sciences is founded in Braile (Romania) in 1869 as a book collection of Bulgarian Learned Society. It is transferred in Sofia in 1879. In 1942 the first branch book collection is created in the "Service for; Bulgarian Dictionary" section of BAS. Since 1947 it deposits the national publishing production. In 1948 it is given a statute of Central Library of the system of the Special Libraries at the Academy. Since 1949 it has been working with the rights of research institute in the field of library science and special bibliography.
