Summary/Abstract: Until now, only three Bulgarian books published in the 17th century have been known, and the three of them were published by educated Bulgarians with the financial support from the Catholic Church. I managed to find another book written by a Bulgarian and published in 1679. This is a short philosophical and theological work (thesis) by Marcus of Chiprovets, written in Latin „in the spirit of Johannes Duns Scottus“ philosophy and printed in Prague. The author is said to have received his schooling from the school at Chiprovets (modern northwestern Bulgaria).
