Summary/Abstract: Haralan Angelov's sonnets were written during the late Bulgarian Revival. They remained in his archive, and were known to the literary public after their publication in periodicals after the early twentieth century. These are the first known sonnets written in Bulgarian. The impetus for their writing was the theoretical cultural activity of Dobri Voynikov. The sonnets show the way of building secular poetry in the time of the Bulgarian Revival after the 60s of the XIX century and after the secularization of culture at that time.
