Summary/Abstract: The text studies the recent books (more than 50) about the actor’s art in Bulgaria, written during the last decade by Bulgarian theatre scholars, critics, directors, actors, teachers in acting, journalists and theatre fans.Several types of texts could be defined – encyclopedias, anniversary issues, historical and theoretical books and monographs, collective works with portraits, autobiogra- phies, interviews, methodological and practical text-books . Most of the works have descriptive character.Others have normative orientation and usually are from the sphere of theatre education and practice. There is a small number of scientific researches and doctoral thesis about actor’s art, which follow a descriptive-normative paradigm . What do we remember today about the Bulgarian actors from the past? How the stage art in our country has developed so far and where does it go? What shall we know in the future about today’s actors? Writing or not writing? However, it is better to write, to seal in words, sounds and images the shreds of human lives .
