  • ACROSS WORKS and VREME FILM STUDIO Present Documentary Film
    ACROSS WORKS and VREME FILM STUDIO present documentary film by Stefan Valdobrev short synopsis Following the quest of a man's awkward dream to be named after his favorite football club, the film director brings us close to a Bulgarian builder and his memorable mates, and creates a moving portrait of contemporary Bulgaria with its bewildered and confused people, so disappointed by the life in the country that they migrate to their own substitute reality. The journey starts in Svishtov, a small town on the bank of the river Danube, tells the story of the protagonist's struggle with the authorities, leads us all the way to Old Trafford Stadium, where he meets his idol, the Manchester United top-striker Dimitar Berbatov, and ends up back home, raising questions about identity, about who we are and who we want to be. full synopsis A single 48-year-old man from a small town on the bank of the river Danube lives alone with his mother and his cat called Beckham. The only thing of meaning in his life is his love for a football club. He is one of the millions who become significant through the successes of their idols. But there's something special about him: his name. In 1999 Manchester United are playing Bayern Munich in the Champions League final and are losing 1:0 in the 89th minute. On the verge of despair, this passionate Bulgarian fan declares that if his team somehow manage to win the match, he will change his name to Manchester United. In the next two minutes the "red devils" do the impossible, scoring two goals to win the trophy, and that's how Marin Zdravkov Levidzhov starts his ten- year odyssey through court, churches and authorities, hoping that one day he will wake up as Manchester United Zdravkov Levidzhov.

  • American Protestantism and the Kyrias School for Girls, Albania By
    Of Women, Faith, and Nation: American Protestantism and the Kyrias School For Girls, Albania by Nevila Pahumi A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in the University of Michigan 2016 Doctoral Committee: Professor Pamela Ballinger, Co-Chair Professor John V.A. Fine, Co-Chair Professor Fatma Müge Göçek Professor Mary Kelley Professor Rudi Lindner Barbara Reeves-Ellington, University of Oxford © Nevila Pahumi 2016 For my family ii Acknowledgements This project has come to life thanks to the support of people on both sides of the Atlantic. It is now the time and my great pleasure to acknowledge each of them and their efforts here. My long-time advisor John Fine set me on this path. John’s recovery, ten years ago, was instrumental in directing my plans for doctoral study. My parents, like many well-intended first generation immigrants before and after them, wanted me to become a different kind of doctor. Indeed, I made a now-broken promise to my father that I would follow in my mother’s footsteps, and study medicine. But then, I was his daughter, and like him, I followed my own dream. When made, the choice was not easy. But I will always be grateful to John for the years of unmatched guidance and support. In graduate school, I had the great fortune to study with outstanding teacher-scholars. It is my committee members whom I thank first and foremost: Pamela Ballinger, John Fine, Rudi Lindner, Müge Göcek, Mary Kelley, and Barbara Reeves-Ellington.

  • The Bulgarians in America and the Native-Born Intelligentsia in Defence of the Macedonian Liberating Movement (1899-1903) George Genov - Phd
    1 The Bulgarians in America and the native-born Intelligentsia in defence of the Macedonian liberating movement (1899-1903) George Genov - PhD At the end of the 19th century the Bulgarians in North America numbered less than 1000./1/ Despite this, their presence in the patchwork ethnic picture of the New World began to be felt, since the immigrants arriving from Moesia, Thrace and Macedonia were the sons of a virtuous nation, which held sacred its love towards the fatherland, freedom and hard work. The native land was far distant, but the majority of the Bulgarian emigrants were duty-bound in their efforts aimed at realizing their national ideals./2/ Their social manifestation on American soil was focused on the timely creation of mutual aid brotherhoods and parishes. The organization of political groups such as clubs, study groups, and societies was the next higher stage in the emigrant's activity. The appearance and historical mission of these sociopolitical associations are important scholarly problems, whose answers will provide us with many unknown facts important not only as a regional phenomenon but also in the context of Pan- Bulgarian recent history.
