Summary/Abstract: The topic of the official marking of the 1000th Anniversary of the death of St. Clement of Ochrid has been widely discussed in the Bulgarian cultural space for a few years before 1914 when “The Regional” of MNP for the celebration of the holiday in 1916 was published. A lot of articles and speeches, dedicated to the life and deeds of the Saint (whose authors are I. Goshev, I. Snegarov, V. Uzunov, T. Bychvarov and others) were published in Bulgarian periodic press (“Church Press”, “Bell”, “Peace”, “Spiritual Sun”, “Spiritual Awakening”, “Slavic Voice”, “Ilinden”, etc.). The poets and writers who were alive during the event dedicate lyrical and epical works to it (I. Vazov, S. Chilingirov, E. Sprostranov, L. Bobevski and others). The event entered the spiritual space of Bulgarians. It was related not only to the paid tribute to one of St. Cyril and St. Methodius’ first students, but carried also a particular historic, political and cultural connotation.
