  • During the Second World War
    DURING THE SECOND WORLD WAR _______________StK______________ SK MARSHALL LEE MILLER Stanford University Press STANFORD, CALIFORNIA I 975 Stanford University Press Stanford, California © 1975 by the Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University Printed in the United States of America is b n 0-8047-0870-3 LC 74-82778 To my grandparents Lee and Edith Rankin and Evelyn Miller Preface SOS h e p o l it ic a l history of modern Bulgaria has been greatly ne­ T glected by Western scholars, and the important period of the Second World War has hardly been studied at all. The main reason for this has no doubt been the difficulty of obtaining documentary material on the wartime period. Although the Communist regime of Bulgaria has published a large number of books and monographs dealing with the country’s role in the war, these works have been concerned mostly with magnifying the importance of the Bulgarian Communist Party (BKP) and the partisan struggle. Despite this bias, useful information can be found in these works when other sources are available to provide perspective and verification. Within recent years, German, American, British, and other diplo­ matic and intelligence reports from the wartime years have become available, and the easing of travel restrictions in Bulgaria has facili­ tated research there. As recently as 1958, when the doctoral thesis of Marin V. Pundeff was presented (“Bulgaria’s Place in Axis Policy, 1936-1944”), there was very little material on the period after June 1941. It is now possible to fill in many of the important gaps in our knowledge of Bulgaria during the entire war.

  • S Jews in World War II
    The Rescue of Bulgaria's Jews in World War II ON FEBRUARY 13, 1998, Bulgarian President Petar Stoyanov accepted on behalf of his ex-Communist nation the Courage to Care Award, which the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) had bestowed upon Bulgaria in recognition of the heroism of its people in saving Bulgarian Jews during World War II. Speaking at a meeting of the League's National Executive Committee in Palm Beach, Florida, the ADL National Director Abraham Foxman presented this prestigious award to President Stoyanov with words of deep gratitude: "Today I am here to say thank you — thank you to a people and a nation that unanimously said 'no' to the Nazi killing machine, 'no' to the deportation trains and concentration camps, and 'yes' to its 48,000 Jews."[1] He praised the Bulgarian people who heroically saved the local Jews by preventing their deportation to Hitler's death camps, even though the Bulgarian government was allied with Nazi Germany during World War II. According to Mr. Foxman, this miraculous salvation of Bulgaria's Jewish community was made possible by the courageous leadership of Bulgarian King Boris III, "whose personal defiance of Hitler and refusal to supply troops to the Russian front or to cooperate with deportation requests set an example for his country."[2] Thanking his host for this high honor, President Stoyanov replied with some modesty, "What happened then should not be seen as a miracle. My nation did what any decent nation, human being, man or woman, would have done in those circumstances…. The events of World War II have made the Bulgarian Jews forever the closest friends of my people."[3] On March 11, 2003, Bulgaria's international image got an even bigger boost, when the U.S.

Dr. Yonca KÖKSAL3 ÖZET Bu bildiri 1923-1934 yılları arasında Türkiye ile Bulgaristan’ın ilişkilerini ve bu ilişkilerin Bulgaristan’daki Müslüman ve Türk azınlık üzerindeki etkilerini tartışmaktadır. Bu amaçla farklı ülkelerin arşivleri ve dönemin gazeteleri incelenmiştir. 1920’lerin ikinci yarısında iki ülke arasında diplomatik ilişkiler kurulduktan sonra Ankara ve Sofya azınlık sorununun ilişkilerinin gelişimini sınırlamaması için çaba sarf etmiştir. İki ülke arasında ilişkiler iyi olduğunda Bulgaristan’daki Türk azınlığın konumu bu ilişkilerin niteliğini ve yönünü pek etkilememiştir. Öte yandan ikili ilişkiler kötüye doğru gittiğinde Bulgar hükümeti Türk azınlığa baskı yapmaya başlamıştır. Ayrıca diğer Balkan ülkelerinin bölgesel ve uluslararası ilişkilere tepkileri Türk-Bulgar ilişkilerini etkilemiştir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Türkiye, Bulgaristan, Azınlıklar, Dış İlişkiler, Balkanlar TURKISH-BULGARIAN RELATIONS AND THE TURKISH MINORITY (1923-1934) ABSTRACT This paper studies relations between Turkey and Bulgaria during the years 1923–1934 and its effects on the Turkish minority living in Bulgaria. It brings international, national and community level dynamics together in an attempt to show how Bulgarian-Turkish relations affected the conditions of the Turkish minority. After the establishment of the diplomatic relations between the two states, Ankara and Sofia endeavored to constrain deliberately the influence of the minority issue on these relations. Consequently, this presentation argues that the Turkish minority in Bulgaria constituted rarely a factor in its own right that could influence the nature and the direction of the two countries’ bilateral relationship.

  • Nominalia of the Bulgarian Rulers an Essay by Ilia Curto Pelle
    Nominalia of the Bulgarian rulers An essay by Ilia Curto Pelle Bulgaria is a country with a rich history, spanning over a millennium and a half. However, most Bulgarians are unaware of their origins. To be honest, the quantity of information involved can be overwhelming, but once someone becomes invested in it, he or she can witness a tale of the rise and fall, steppe khans and Christian emperors, saints and murderers of the three Bulgarian Empires. As delving deep in the history of Bulgaria would take volumes upon volumes of work, in this essay I have tried simply to create a list of all Bulgarian rulers we know about by using different sources. So, let’s get to it. Despite there being many theories for the origin of the Bulgars, the only one that can show a historical document supporting it is the Hunnic one. This document is the Nominalia of the Bulgarian khans, dating back to the 8th or 9th century, which mentions Avitohol/Attila the Hun as the first Bulgarian khan. However, it is not clear when the Bulgars first joined the Hunnic Empire. It is for this reason that all the Hunnic rulers we know about will also be included in this list as khans of the Bulgars. The rulers of the Bulgars and Bulgaria carry the titles of khan, knyaz, emir, elteber, president, and tsar. This list recognizes as rulers those people, who were either crowned as any of the above, were declared as such by the people, despite not having an official coronation, or had any possession of historical Bulgarian lands (in modern day Bulgaria, southern Romania, Serbia, Albania, Macedonia, and northern Greece), while being of royal descent or a part of the royal family.
