Българската литература в европейския културен контекст
Bulgarian Literature in the European Cultural Context

Summary/Abstract: In the article, an attempt is made to prove the failure of the thesis that the development of Bulgarian literature was delayed, and then accelerated and catching up. Instead of literature being considered for itself, from which it follows that it must necessarily pass through certain objectively existing stages, it is conceived as a means of building certain attitudes, feelings and beliefs, aimed at finding a solution to emerging ones in the process of modernization spiritual problems of the nation. Several main problems are considered - creation and development of the national ideology, overcoming the chaos of values, emergence of the individual utopia, social conflicts, building a bridge between actuality and the past by building a history of memory and outlining the role of women in the modern world. In the realization of all these spiritual processes, it can be seen that Bulgarian literature developed in full sync with the cultural processes taking place at that time in a European context. The conclusion is that the way in which Bulgarian literature is understood and taught at home and abroad must be reconsidered in order to come to the perception of native literature as an integral part of a common European symbolic space.
