Първи представления на Пекинска опера Дзиндзю 京剧в България и тяхната рецепция
First Peking Opera Jingju 京剧 performances in Bulgaria and their reception

Summary/Abstract: The text examines the first performances of Chinese traditional opera in Bulgaria. These performances cultivate “horizon of expectation” (after Jauss) and ideas about traditional Chinese opera among the Bulgarian society. Equality and mutual respect between cultures are obligatory conditions for the reception of “Eastern” works among “Western” cultures (after Nishikawa). The interaction of full value between Chinese performers and Bulgarian audiences, which dates back from 1952, contributes to the reception of those performances in 1952 as well as the further reception of traditional Chinese opera in Bulgaria in perspective. The research explores scholarly publications, press publications, archives, recollections of performers and other materials.
