It contains collected works by ten leading historians in their fi elds of study from four countries. The topics are diff erent, but they are bound together by a common idea – how do technological advances, politics, and the wars they provoke, infl uence each other, and how the latter aff ect the progress. The articles are presented chronologically and thematically. With the exception of the fi rst one by Georgi Markov, who explores generally the his- torical genesis and the right of the Bulgarians to be considered as an ancient civilized people, the rest of the works study the events of the 19th-20th cen- turies. In the context of individual works, particular attention is given to the impact of wars and progress on universal human values. For instance, the third article dwells on the heroism of the life-guards in the Russo-Turkish War of 1877-1878. At the same time, one of the following papers discusses the change in the morale of the military in connection with the involvement of the Entente soldiers and offi cers in the smuggling of essential foods and goods in Bulgaria shortly after the First World War. In many cases, the articles focus on the national sentiment. The desire of many peoples, including the Bulgarians, to live united in a single state is the subject of several papers. In this regard, the article by Yagub Mahmudov studies the events in the so-called by the author ‘Southern Azerbaijan’ (present day Northwestern Iran) from April to September 1920, when the government formed there was fi ghting for independence of the region without achieving it. Similar, but in another context, is the article by Biser Georgiev, which analyzes the actions of the leaders of the Liberals after their fall from power in the last months of the First World War. One of the author’s important conclusions is that the leading liberals do not plan to come to power in a coup putting at risk the national unifi cation. In a slightly diff erent perspective is the article by Lyubka Naydenova, who, among other things, explores the attitude of the political parties to the declaration of Bulgarian independence in 1908. One of the problems with ambiguous interpretation is the issue of the ‘culprit’ for the outbreak of the ‘European War’ in 1914 and the politicians who put their nations on the ‘wrong’ side. This is discussed in the works of Todor Galunov and that of Gregory Shkundin. The topics are diff erent, but the essence of their theses is the same. Similar to them, but with a diff erent per- spective is the article by Dmytro Mykolenko, which is more historiographic in nature. 7 The last article in the volume in chronology but not in its signifi cance deals with the Gulf crisis of 1990-1991. In this noteworthy work, the author studies in detail the struggle for control of strategic resources in the region and their role in the direction of international politics. In general, we should conclude that the scientifi c articles presented in this volume make a major step forward in exploring the mechanisms linking progress, politics, and war, as well as their consequences for moving hu- manity forward. The topics are diverse, but the research outcomes are more than positive. Biser Georgiev, trans. Svetlana Nedelcheva 8 STUDIA ACADEMICA ŠUMENENSIA 6, 9-24 © 2019 by Shumen University Press От фракийского до мадарского всадника (From the Thracian to the Madara Horseman) Georgy Markov Abstract: Orphism and Thracian arts coordinate with the state-making ability of the Proto-Bulgarians to serve as a basis for the genesis of the Bulgarian people. Continuity in civilizations creates favorable conditions for lasting upgrading, which is crucial for national fate. The Thracians did not disappear but left a significant cultural and historical heritage, and the ancient Bulgarians gave the name to the state, which was preserved for centuries. The Slavs underwent a series of beneficial effects, the language having a priority. Every group/ tribe of the Bulgarian people has its undisputed merits, so that today Bulgaria is on the world map. Key words: Thracians, Orphism, Proto-Bulgarians, south Slavs, Madara Horseman Резюме: Орфизмът и изкуствата на траките се съчетават с държавнотворческата способност на прабългарите, за да залегнат в генезиса на българския народ. Приемстве- ността в цивилизациите създава благоприятни условия за трайно надграждане, което е определящо за националната съдба. Траките не изчезват, а оставят значимо култур- ноисторическо наследство, а древните българи дават устойчивото през вековете име на държавата. Славяните претърпяват поредица от ползотворни въздействия, давайки предимство на езика. Така че всяка съставна част от българския народ е със своите без- спорни заслуги, за да ни има и днес върху световната карта. Еще в 5 тысячелетии до нашей эры между Дунаем на севере, на юге от Белого моря и Мраморного моря и на западе до Моравы и Вар- дара появился живой индоевропейский народ, населявший Фракию под своим именем до Великого переселения народов. Фракийцы мно- гочисленны, но разделены на враждующие племена: ‘Фракийцы после индейцев самые многочисленные в мире. Если бы они были одно целое и управлялись только одним правителем, они были бы непобедимы и, на мой взгляд, наиболее могущественными из всех существующих. Од- нако, поскольку это невозможно и, безусловно, никогда не будет достиг- нуто ими, они слабы. В каждом отдельном племенном ареале у них есть 9 Georgy Markov отдельное имя, но их нравы и обычаи одинаковы’ (Геродот). Отец исто- рии указывает 22 племена, но на самом деле их более 80! Он завидует варварам, что, в отличие от греков, они пьют неразбавленное вино на своих длинных пирах, и не экономит своей надменной желчи: ‘Сидеть не работая, считается великим, считаться праздным считается великим, обрабатывать землю - унизительным, и жить от войны

Bibliography 273 Abstract The nation-state is now the dominant form of sovereign statehood, however, a century and a half ago the political map of Europe comprised only a handful of sovereign states, very few of them nations in the modern sense. Balkan historiography often tends to minimize the complexity of nation-building, either by referring to the national community as to a monolithic and homogenous unit, or simply by neglecting different social groups whose consciousness varied depending on region, gender and generation. Further, Bulgarian and Serbian historiography pay far more attention to the problem of "how" and "why" certain events have happened than to the emergence of national consciousness of the Balkan peoples as a complex and durable process of mental evolution. This dissertation on the concept of nationality in which most Bulgarians and Serbs were educated and socialized examines how the modern idea of nationhood was disseminated among the ordinary people and it presents the complicated process of national indoctrination carried out by various state institutions.

  • The Internal Macedonian-Adrianople Revolutionary Organization and the Idea for Autonomy for Macedonia and Adrianople Thrace
    The Internal Macedonian-Adrianople Revolutionary Organization and the Idea for Autonomy for Macedonia and Adrianople Thrace, 1893-1912 By Martin Valkov Submitted to Central European University Department of History In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Supervisor: Prof. Tolga Esmer Second Reader: Prof. Roumen Daskalov CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2010 “Copyright in the text of this thesis rests with the Author. Copies by any process, either in full or part, may be made only in accordance with the instructions given by the Author and lodged in the Central European Library. Details may be obtained from the librarian. This page must form a part of any such copies made. Further copies made in accordance with such instructions may not be made without the written permission of the Author.” CEU eTD Collection ii Abstract The current thesis narrates an important episode of the history of South Eastern Europe, namely the history of the Internal Macedonian-Adrianople Revolutionary Organization and its demand for political autonomy within the Ottoman Empire. Far from being “ancient hatreds” the communal conflicts that emerged in Macedonia in this period were a result of the ongoing processes of nationalization among the different communities and the competing visions of their national projects. These conflicts were greatly influenced by inter-imperial rivalries on the Balkans and the combination of increasing interference of the Great European Powers and small Balkan states of the Ottoman domestic affairs. I argue that autonomy was a multidimensional concept covering various meanings white-washed later on into the clean narratives of nationalism and rebirth.

  • Acta 114.Indd
    Acta Poloniae Historica 114, 2016 PL ISSN 0001–6829 Aleksander Łupienko Tadeusz Manteuffel Institute of History, Polish Academy of Sciences MILITARY ASPECTS IN THE SPATIAL DEVELOPMENT OF POLISH CITIES IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY* Abstract Military issues were deemed vital in the European politics of the nineteenth century. The aim of this article is to trace the most important implications of the ‘military bias’ of state authorities in the border region between the three empires (Germany, Russia and Austria – later the Austro-Hungarian Empire) which occupied the Central and Eastern part of the continent. Military authorities sometimes exercised a particularly strong infl uence upon urban policy. The two major issues addressed in this article are the fortifi cations (their creation, strengthening, and spatial development) which infl uenced urban sprawl – though perhaps not so much as is maintained in the scholarly literature – and the development of railways. The directions and tracks chosen for the railways were also infl uenced by the military plans, which in turn often differed much from the visions of the urban offi cials who made up the administration of the city. Keywords: urban development, nineteenth-century cities, Polish territories, forti- fi cations, railroads In 1898 a great Polish-Jewish entrepreneur, whose wealth came mainly from railroad investments, published in Petersburg a six-volume work Budushchaya Voĭna, translated into many languages (in English it was published under the title: Is War Now Impossible?1).

NEW HAVEN, CONN. Foreword This outline of modern Bulgarian literature is the result of an exchange of memories of Bulgaria between the authors some years ago in New York. We both have visited Bulgaria many times, we have had many personal friends among its scholars and statesmen, and we feel a deep sympathy for the tragic plight of this long-suffering Slavic nation with its industrious and hard-working people. We both feel also that it is an injustice to Bulgaria and a loss to American Slavic scholarship that, in spite of the importance of Bulgaria for the Slavic world, so little attention is paid to the country's cultural contributions. This is the more deplorable for American influence in Bulgaria was great, even before World War I. Many Bulgarians were educated in Robert Col- lege in Constantinople and after World War I in the American College in Sofia, one of the institutions supported by the Near East Foundation. Many Bulgarian professors have visited the United States in happier times. So it seems unfair that Ameri- cans and American universities have ignored so completely the development of the Bulgarian genius and culture during the past century.

  • The Hungarian Historical Review
    Hungarian Historical Review 3, no. 3 (2014): 471–493 Judit Gál The Roles and Loyalties of the Bishops and Archbishops of Dalmatia (1102–1301) This paper deals with the roles of archbishops and bishops of Dalmatia who were either Hungarian or had close connections with the Hungarian royal court. The analysis covers a relatively long period, beginning with the coronation of Coloman as king of Croatia and Dalmatia (1102) and concluding with the end of the Árpád dynasty (1301). The length of this period not only enables me to examine the general characteristics of the policies of the court and the roles of the prelates in a changing society, but also allows for an analysis of the roles of the bishopric in different spheres of social and political life. I examine the roles of bishops and archbishops in the social context of Dalmatia and clarify the importance of their activities for the royal court of Hungary. Since the archbishops and bishops had influential positions in their cities, I also highlight the contradiction between their commitments to the cities on the one hand and the royal court on the other, and I examine the ways in which they managed to negotiate these dual loyalties. First, I describe the roles of the bishops in Dalmatian cities before the rule of the Árpád dynasty. Second, I present information regarding the careers of the bishops and archbishops in question. I also address aspects of the position of archbishop that were connected to the royal court. I focus on the role of the prelates in the royal entourage in Dalmatia, their importance in the emergence of the cult of the dynastic saints, and their role in shaping royal policy in Dalmatia.
