Summary/Abstract: The following text aims to present to the literary circles the abounding documental heritage of acad. Panteley Zarev, which is stored in the University Archive of Sofia University. In the span of a few years his son Vladimir Zarev submitted a rich collection of letters and notebooks of high historical value to be preserved and used by researchers. Correspondents of P. Zarev are various Bulgarian and Soviet writers and literati, in whose letters you can find interesting information, while as a whole they constitute a substantial source for the literary and cultural life in the country during the Socialism. The notebooks contain personal notes from P. Zarev from meetings at a high state level, impressions from traveling abroad with government delegations, etc., which demonstrate a different point of view from the official information about these occasions.
