Сборникът „Български народни песни“ в хърватския периодичен печат от 1860 – 1861 г. и в огледалото на Република Северна Македония
The collection “Bulgarian folk songs” in the Croatian periodical press from 1860 – 1861 and the mirror of the Republic of Northern Macedonia

Summary/Abstract: of Macedonia within the federal Tito’s Yugoslavia, the collection of the Miladinov brothers became inconvenient for the rulers and its original was hidden. A mass falsification and manipulation of public opinion began. The collection was renamed. Several generations have been formed who think and know that the Miladinov brothers have written a collection called “Macedonian Folk Songs”. Today, in each of the newer publications published in Skopje, the authors, although acknowledging that the name of the collection is “Bulgarian Folk Songs”, always state a number of reasons for this, and continue to call the book with the impersonal “the collection of the Miladinov brothers”. Other researchers, driven by the desire to find some excuse and justification for the title of the collection “Bulgarian Folk Songs”, attributed the blame for this to the Croatian bishop Josip Strossmayer (1815 – 1905).
