Bizánc és Róma között („Információrobbanás” és „paradigmaváltás” Bulgáriában [886–970])
Between Byzantium and Roma (“Information Explosion” and “Para-digm Shift” in Bulgaria [885–970])

Summary/Abstract: Information Explosion and Paradigm Shift in Bulgaria (885–970) The two technical terms mentioned in the title and appearing frequently in the literature are used in the paper to describe the fundamental changes Bulgaria went through between 885 and 970. Due to the information explosion Bulgaria joined a new cultural and religious community via Christianization. Slavic literacy and Slavic language liturgy made Bulgaria a source of religious and cultural mission (for the Orthodox Slavs and Romanians). The information explosion was completed by paradigm shifts, which finalized the special properties of Bulgarian cultural and religious life. As a consequence of these two processes, the special features of the Bulgarian ethnos as well as its administration emerged. As a result, cultural and religious traditions were created, which enabled the Bulgarians to preserve their national and cultural identity throughout their history.
