The Confession Rank (Chin Pokayaniya) for nuns, published in 1874, is known only because of its eleventh question with the list of pagan deities Rod and rozhantsi, Perun, Hars and Mokosh, which, so far in the Slavic studies, have been recognized as Old Russian. The study proves that this manuscript is taken from an epitheme collection of the Bulgarian church and dates back to the time of the double faith of the Bulgarians, at the end of the 9th century, and consequently the deities are from the Old Bulgarian pagan pantheon.

This article sheds light on the art of travel in the Islamic Maghreb, particularly with reference to diplomacy. While the traditional formation of travel came to be associated with an Islamic phenomenology, this paper argues that in the modern period the art of travel in the Islamic Maghreb underwent a paradigmatic shift in terms of its purposes and poetics. The first pertains to the expansion of its telos from an exclusively experiential religious horizon to the negotiation of various secular, particularly political undertakings.The second relates to the critical situatedness of travellers/diplomats as they navigated the ethical acuities of pursuing representational faithfulness while also doing their best not to hurt the sensibilities of the Moroccan Sultan or the interests of the state which they represented. Within the Moroccan ambassador Ahmad al-Kerdoudi’s travelogue about nineteenth-century Spain, the enterprise of intercultural mediation reflects the porousness of the Mediterranean world not only in the spheres of theology and culture but also in that of diplomacy.

The article provides a discursive analysis of the descriptions of Bulgaria compiled by Russian travelers in the first years after the fall of S. Stambolov and the normalization of relations between the two countries, in semiotic and axiological aspects. Publications in newspapers and books of those years, materials of the Russian State Archive of Literature and Art are compiled. On their basis, the features of Bulgarian public life that the authors paid the most attention to are highlighted: urban improvement, political development, attitude to religion and culture. Based on the analysis of the attitude to these symbols of modernity and Westernization, it is assumed that the descriptions of Bulgaria by Russian eyewitnesses contain elements of both oriental and occidental discourse, and the descriptions are based on a comparison of Bulgaria with an ideal modernization project.

After February 25, 1921, the Soviet government tried in every possible way to win the favor of the population of Georgia, even though they managed to gain control over the country by force of arms, still, according to their outlook, they were doing a good deed, which they had to explain to the population. According to the command of the occupying forces of Soviet Russia and the Transcaucasian Bureau of the Communist Party, it was the government of the Democratic Republic that was repressive and oppressive to the population, but then again they also realized that the occupation would make a neutral person feel bad about the occupier, so in the initial period it was decided to pursue a "compromising" policy, which meant the conditional preservation of the old system, so that the population did not feel too big of a change and there were no disturbances in the country, which could result with serious consequences.The Soviet occupation authorities kept local parties around, however covert surveillance and recruitment policies were launched against its members, the purpose of these actions being to physically or politically eliminate people who had more or less influence on the population.In spite of this kind of covert actions, the Soviet occupation authorities could not avoid the demand of the population to celebrate the day of declaration of independence on May 26, which the Georgian nation considered as a national as well as a political achievement. Although the Soviet authorities did not want this day to be celebrated, they were forced to take into account the demand of the majority of the population, however, they found a solution that would be convenient for their rule, they transformed May 26, the Independence Day of the Georgian people, into an international day for the liberation of common workers, where they presented Georgia, not as An independent state, but a country of workers who were oppressed and real freedom was only brought by February 25. With such a distorted ideology, the authorities of Soviet Georgia celebrated May 26 for the first and last time during its existence without its real idea and essence.

Time of the national renaissance of the Balkan peoples, the 19th century represents also an important chapter in the history of Romanian-Bulgarian relations. The Bulgarian renaissance and the struggle for emancipation from Ottoman rule would not have been possible, beyond the involvement and help of great powers such as Russia, without the safe Heaven that Bulgarian revolutionaries and common people, cultural and political elites have found north of Danube. Cultural, military and political structures, schools, press and printing in Bulgarian appeared and flourished north of the Danube under the protection of the Romanian authorities. The present approach proposes an analysis of these developments and the impact they had on the Bulgarian national renaissance and the relations between the two states.

Romanian participation in the Russo-Turkish War of 1877 – 1878 was manifested to the greatest extent in the high number of casualties near the town of Pleven in 1877. The Romanian attacks during the third assault on the city and the subsequent actions for its liberation remain memorable. With memorial signs and museums Bulgaria and Romania honor and preserve the memory of the heroes who, with their blood, won the victory of Pleven and contributed to Romanian independence and Bulgarian freedom.

In this paper the relationship between humanities as a field and tragedy is examined. Relying on Menke’s analysis of the tragic (Menke 2009) we examine in some depth the ideas of Schelling, Hölderlin and Friedrich Schlegel on the subject and how they positioned themselves on the topic of the possibility of the tragic in Modernity. Accepting that both the speculative idealist model of the didactic play and the model of the romantic comedy tried to overcome the tragic, we conclude that the element of tragic is still a worthy and much needed topic to be part of the humanities in the XXI century and Post-Modernity, primarily as a way of thinking power.

The following article highlights the most important endogenous aspects of population reproduction in crisis circumstances, based on demographic data on the Bessarabian Bulgarians in the 1940s. During this decade, the territory of Bessarabia sporadically fell within the borders of both Romania and the USSR, which led to the collapse of the traditional social institutions and practices among the Bulgarians living there. Led by the numerous political changes, demographic birth and death rates within a group are affected by these exogenous factors, while reflecting actual societal alterations. As a basis for the study, information extracted from the current reports of the village councils was used, or in other words – the so-called population registers. The results of the data processing are presented in a diachronic comparative perspective regarding the history of the Bulgarian communities in Bessarabia. This approach allows for analytic clarifications of the scale and nature of the famine in 1946-1947. The average daily mortality rate was found to be 18.3. In general, the specificity of the demographic transition of the Bulgarian group from a traditional to a modern model of reproduction stands out. The role of exogenous causes in the final phase of this transition has been also revealed. Birth rates were reported to be gradually decreasing while mortality rates were increasing. The consequences of this transformation were visible in the next generation in the 1960s.
