Annex 3; Contemporary Galleries – two of the best! 55 About the author 56 1 Acknowledgements I would not have been able to produce this booklet without the support and encouragement of Yassen Gollev of Konus Gallery – also painter and lecturer. It was he who suggested the initial names of painters I should know something about and who would produce, from time to time, works for me to consider. Latterly, he supplied me with the details of some of the painters of whom I was despairing of getting any more information than their date of birth! Evelina Handjieva, the Director of the Dobrich city gallery, was also very helpful in the provision of information. To Yovo Yovchev is due particular thanks for being the person who really introduced me to Bulgarian painting in 2008; who sold me my first Bulgarian painting; and subsequently helped me in my searches. Last but certainly not least I have to thank Vihra Pesheva – for her introductions to the canvasses of the younger generation and for her immensely helpful assistance in the final stages of the production of this booklet. -

МАХИЕЛ КИЙЛ ЗА БЪЛГАРИЯ И БЪЛГАРИТЕ. ЧАСТ I Максим Стаменов Институт за български език, БАН Abstract. Why Bulgarian studies? Each professional in the field has a personal story to tell on the subject. For Bulgarians it is a matter of definite interest to find out why a foreigner may choose to dedicate their professional life to Bulgaria and Bulgarians instead of many other possible alternatives. In this discussion article I will look for clues of what may have motivated Prof. Machiel Kiel to undertake research in Bulgarian studies in the Balkan context and later move to Ottoman studies with the orientation toward ‘Bulgaria during the Ottoman period’. Part I of the article aims to identify the leitmotifs in the oeuvre of Kiel and the corresponding intentional stance in dealing with subjects related to Bulgarian studies. Part II will be dedicated to case studies (microanalyses) of his way of thinking and coding the products with linguistic means, as well as to general conclusions, including the challenge of Kiel’s professional identity. Keywords: Bulgarian studies, Ottoman studies, Balkan studies, intentional stance in scientific communication, truth-conditions in historical discourse, pragmatics of historical discourse, professional idiolect Резюме. Защо българистика? Всеки специалист от странство в областта може да разкаже различна лична история по въпроса. -
Bulgarian Realists - Getting to Know the Bulgarians Through Their Art
Bulgarian Realists - getting to know the Bulgarians through their art Ronald G Young MA MSc 1 October 2016 1 DEDICATION To my daughters - Hilary, Jan and Susanna To enter into the subjective life of another culture – its symbolic codes, its overt beliefs and implicit assumptions – requires, as any immigrant or nomad can tell you, a considerable effort of consciousness and imagination; a kind of stretching of self towards the other- and a gradual grasp of differences which are sometimes imperceptible and subtle. ….. Cultures are neither static nor monolithic organisms – they are complex, changeable and internally diverse. What is considered healthily assertive in one culture may be seen as aggressive or hostile in another; certain kinds of personal disclosure which may seem quite unproblematic in one society may be seen as embarrassing or entirely unacceptable elsewhere…… We live in a world in which various kinds of cross-national movement – migrations, travel, various kinds of both enforced and voluntary nomadism – are ever on the rise… If we are to meet with each other on the basis of trust rather than tension or insidious indifference, we need to have ways of getting acquainted with each other which are more than cursory, or purely instrumental. But how can this be accomplished? What kind of knowledge is needed to feed meaningful cross-cultural contacts?

Bulgarian Banknotes, 1885-2003
Balkanologie VIII (2), décembre 2004, p. 7-31 \ 7 CHANGE THE REGIME - CHANGE THE MONEY: BULGARIAN BANKNOTES, 1885-2003 Adrian ε. Tschoegl* This paper follows the changes in the images in Bulgaria's notes from the first issue in 1885 to the most recent in 2003. In that period, Bulgaria has gone from being a monarchy to a Communist Peoples' Republic then to a Parliamentary Republic, and the pictorial elements of its money have reflected those changes. Although it is an obvious point that changes in political re gimes lead to changes in the images on the emanations of the State, be they its banknotes, coins, flags, or postage stamps, still this point has not appeared in the literature on these emanations1. BANKNOTES AND THE IDEA OF NATIONAL MONEY We see money every day, but because of its familiarity we rarely observe it. Though often aesthetically beautiful, a banknote is an oblong piece of paper without intrinsic value2. However, the banknote is also a means of communi cation ; it has symbols and images on it that carry information. Banknotes re present a unique documentation because they combine in one medium com- * Adjunct Associate Professor of Management, The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, [email protected] 1 I would like to thank Stanley Brunn, John Dunn, Jeffrey Miller and Georgi Spiridonov who assisted in di verse ways and Anca Metiu who provided helpful comments on an earlier draft. I would like to thank as well Garry Saint Esq. of Numismondo who kindly made available excellent scans of the banknotes that I have used in this paper. -

Surveys Eap989 Survey 1: Data Collection Vidyu1
SURVEYS EAP989 SURVEY 1: DATA COLLECTION VIDYU1 Ivan Enchev - Vidyu was a Bulgarian painter, art critic, illustrator, decorator, cartoonist, scenographer, archaeologist and folklorist. Born on 29 March 1882 in the town of Kazanluk , he obtained his primary education at the teacher training school in his hometown. It was there that he first developed his interests in painting, theater and antiquities. In 1901, he enrolled at the National Academy of Arts in Sofia, where he studied with Petko Klisurov and joined the local community of people from Kazanluk, known as “Rose Valley”, after an area near their hometown. During this time he also helped establish the “Department of Antiquities” at the “Iskra Town History Museum” and made his public début with cartoons and illustrations for the local newspapers. Impressed by Professor Anton Mitov's lectures on art history, he began to write art criticism for the newspaper Ден (Today). He became so involved with this new interest,that he failed to attend his final exams at the Academy. He remained in Sofia a bit longer, then went to Munich in 1906 where he specialized spending his days at the Alte Pinakothek, copying the Old Masters. In 1908, he returned home and donated fifteen of them to a new Art museum. For the next few years, he exhibited his landscapes at the “Society of Artists of Bulgaria” in Sofia, but was not very successful. Instead, he decided to devote his energy to art research and critiques, written for Мир (Peace), the official organ of the People's Party. Although this required living in Sofia, he continued to participate in the affairs of his hometown. -
