Aim of this course is an effort to outline of the literary evolution on the territory of present Bulgaria and Macedonia in 19th century. The course will analyse Bulgarian culture life at the turn of the old and new period. The Bulgarian Revival has the title role in this chronological concretization. The aim of the course is not only chronological interpretation of the literary works of Bulgarian Revival authors, but also literary analyse of the typical genres and forms of this cultural period.
