Българската литература в европейския културен контекст

Author(s): Alexander Panov / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 6/2024

In the article, an attempt is made to prove the failure of the thesis that the development of Bulgarian literature was delayed, and then accelerated and catching up. Instead of literature being considered for itself, from which it follows that it must necessarily pass through certain objectively existing stages, it is conceived as a means of building certain attitudes, feelings and beliefs, aimed at finding a solution to emerging ones in the process of modernization spiritual problems of the nation. Several main problems are considered - creation and development of the national ideology, overcoming the chaos of values, emergence of the individual utopia, social conflicts, building a bridge between actuality and the past by building a history of memory and outlining the role of women in the modern world. In the realization of all these spiritual processes, it can be seen that Bulgarian literature developed in full sync with the cultural processes taking place at that time in a European context. The conclusion is that the way in which Bulgarian literature is understood and taught at home and abroad must be reconsidered in order to come to the perception of native literature as an integral part of a common European symbolic space.

История и идеология (Темата за революцията в два учебника по литература за X клас)

Author(s): Boyko Penchev / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 6/2024

The purpose of the article is to explore the rethinking of the literary-historical narrative in the Bulgarian literature textbooks after 1989. The main method is a comparative literary-historical analysis of two textbooks, very similar in terms of authors and content, published in 1984 and 1992 respectively. The article explores the strategies of re-conceptualization (and dislodging) of the concept of revolution in these textbooks, as well as the altered functions of literary movements such as symbolism and modernism in the framework of the literary history, thought in secondary schools. The “new reading” of literature after 1989 is compared with Jean-François Lyotard’s concept of the crisis of grand narratives and the shift towards a new type of knowledge legitimation – through the category of “performativity”. The article raises the question of whether the de-ideologization of literature also leads to its de-historicization and whether this is dangerous for its social validity, given the problematic applicability of the performative criterion in dealing with literature within the educational system.

Synchrónne Modely A Modelovanie Hydroným Rieky Turiec

Author(s): Pavol Odaloš / Language(s): English,Polish Issue: 1/2024

This paper aims to present the modelling process and models of Turiec River hydronymy. Turiec is a river in northern Slovakia. The term A1 model is used to denote a model mapping the content aspect of a hydronym. It contains a functional member with a semantic attribute signalling the type of onymic relation and functional members expressing other semantic attributes. Hydronymic models are categorized according to the number of functional members into one-membered, two-membered, and three-membered models. Two-membered models are most frequent, especially models expressing a relation to a place and describing a specific feature. Models using flora and fauna for honorification purposes also occur. The presented types of models, categorized according to the number of functional members and to the identified semantic characteristics of functional members, co-create the paradigm of hydronymic modelling.

Development Trends in the Morphological-Typological Profile of German

Author(s): Nikolay Stankov / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2024

The article presents the results of an analysis of samples extracted from a total of six corpora containing literary, scientific and journalistic texts stemming from fixed periods within the 20th and 21st centuries. The aim is to discover whether and to what extent the morphology of the German language has become more or less analytic or synthetic and what quantitative morphological-typological differences there are between the three major text types: literary, scientific, and journalistic. The concept of grammaticity is also briefly discussed and applied to the analysis. The study finds, among other things, that 21st-century scientific texts tend to exhibit a higher level of syntheticity than the other two text types, that German has simultaneously become less analytic and less synthetic over the past 100 years, and that, as a result, it encodes less grammatical information nowadays than it did at the outset of the 1920s.

Цветовете на смъртта – фразеологизми с компонент черно и бяло в немския и в българския език

Author(s): Gabriela Grigoryan / Language(s): English,Bulgarian Issue: 1/2024

This article offers a comparative study of German and Bulgarian phraseological units with the components black and white within the semantic field of death. The phraseological units were extracted from phraseological dictionaries and can be divided into full equivalents, semantic equivalents, and non-equivalents. The comparative study makes it possible to determine the common and specific features in the symbolism of the colours. The results reveal the predominance of similarities in the symbolism of black and white in the two languages. It is also noted that, in the phraseological units that have a component black or white, colour symbolism does not always play the dominating role for their motivation.

Архетипология на една средновековна монархия през призмата на лингвокултурологията: отношенията майка-син-владетел при генезиса на португалската нация – въведение в проблематиката

Author(s): Vera Kirkova / Language(s): English,Bulgarian Issue: 1/2024

How and when exactly was Portugal “born” is one of the sensitive questions of Portuguese historiography. Several dates are often mentioned simultaneously, which expresses the successive decisive steps taken to overcome the obstacles that came with the sought affirmation in Europe – notably via recognition by other nations and by the Church. The first king of Portugal to fight for the independent Portuguese monarchy was Dom Afonso Henriques, who, along with his mother, invariably attracts interest. It is shown in the sources, as well as in the legendary recreation of the historical moment. Thus, in this complex play of politics in “laying” the foundations of the nation, the importance of the archetypal mother-son-ruler relationship becomes obvious. The purpose of this article is to delve into some of the linguoculturological aspects of this question.

Критика и въображение: Лукиан от Самосата и неговата „Истинска история“

Author(s): Hristo Hristov / Language(s): English,Bulgarian Issue: 1/2024

Тhis article focuses on three main problems. Firstly, the connection between the life and work of Lucian of Samosata, which exists implicitly in his fantastic short story “A True Story.” Secondly, the complete clarification of the specific genre of the story in relation to the characteristics of the audience of the work. Thirdly, the specific nature of Lucian as the author of the story, i.e. his roles in that case of a literary critic and master of belles-lettres. The role of the literary critic is related to the culture of the Hellenistic age and has evolved in the epoch of the 2nd-century Roman Empire. The role of the master of belles-lettres is that of the author searching for new ways beyond the classical literary patterns of the past such as Homer’s epic poems.

Невербална комуникация чрез художествените творби

Author(s): Svetla Panayotova / Language(s): English,Bulgarian Issue: 1/2024

The phrase “non-verbal communication” can include all types of signals that are used in interpersonal communication, but at the same time do not belong to language (verbal communication). Non-verbal communication enriches, accompanies, complements, clarifies, emphasizes the content of what is said, and it also reveals the true emotions of the participants in the communication process. By mastering the symbols and signs of non-verbal communication, a change in personal perspectives can be achieved. The impact of works of art as a form of non-verbal communication on viewers would lead to the expansion of their knowledge and to the achievement of aesthetic enjoyment. The aim of this work is to present the impact of non-verbal signals through artistic works as an invariable part of the communication process. To achieve the formulated goal, the author has considered the impact of specific works of art, without neglecting or belittling the variety of other signals in non-verbal communication.

Съветският съюз: критични и изобличителни ракурси (наблюдения върху пътеписни книги от 20-те и 30-те години на XX век)

Author(s): Maria Russeva / Language(s): English,Bulgarian Issue: 1/2024

The paper focuses on the Soviet Union as presented in Bulgarian interwar travelogues – Nikola Iliev’s Kakvo Vidyah v Savetska Rusia: Istinski Razkaz (What I Saw in Soviet Russia: A True Story) (1921), P. Stoyanov’s Istinata za Ruskia Bolshevizam (The Truth about Russian Bolshevism) (1921), Ivan Abadzhiev’s Prez Velikite Karvavi Dni na Rusia (During the Great Bloody Days of Russia) (1929), and Boris Dimitrov’s Na Iztok – Vsichko Novo! S.S.S.R.: Vpechatlenia i Razmishlenia (To the East – Everything New! U.S.S.R.: Impressions and Reflections) (1941). The country is depicted in these travelogues as a totalitarian “hell” – an enclosed society isolated from the outside world. Moreover, it is governed by means of repression and terror, with the intention to subjugate not only the bodies, but also the minds of its people. The Soviet citizens described by those Bulgarian writers not only find themselves deprived of basic human rights and civil liberties, but also their existence is reduced to the level of survival amid everyday restrictions and poverty, as well as fear of an omnipresent and threatening police aggression.

RETRODIGITALIZACIJA I INTERPRETACIJA GRAMATIKA TISKANIH DO SREDINE 19. STOLJEĆA

Author(s): Diana Stolac / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 17/2024

The history of European languages records centuries of printing grammar books that described the structures of languages in search of the best models of description. This article highlights two grammatical strategies identified in the first grammar books. The first is an attempt to describe language according to a model that offers the structure of Latin as the language of European education. Another strategy is a comparison with other European languages. Both of these strategies are confirmed by Croatian grammar books published by the middle of the 19th century. The corpus consists of grammar books published between 1604 and 1812. (authorsare B. Kašić, L. Šitović, A. Della Bella, M. A. Relković, I. Szentmártony, J. Voltić, F. M.Appendini, and Š. Starčević). It turns out that both strategies have positive and negative effects on each subsequent grammatical description. The basic grammatical categories that were found to be inadequately described were analyzed. In the analyzed grammar books, the number of cases is singled out, with an emphasis on the relations of genitive-ablative, dative-locative, and terminology. Only the first grammar book that describes the structure of the Croatian language independently from Latin or some other European language (German or Italian) offered a grammatical description with less liability caused by the grammatical structures of the second language. In order to be able to analyze other grammatical categories, i.e. the entire grammatical structure, it is necessary to enable the availability of historical grammar books. In this part of the paper, the retro-digitalization project RETROGRAM is presented. The retro-digitization of Croatian grammar books implies the transfer of printed media to computer-readable and searchable text. It also includes a multilevel mark-up of transcribed or translated grammar text and their connection with facsimiles. The user will be able to browse grammar book facsimiles, read transcribed or translated texts, and search them by predetermined parameters (which allow conjugation and declension paradigms searches).This project offers a model for similar future research not only in Croatian but also in European philology.

ПРОЗАТА НА ИРЖИ ПАДЕВЕТ: МЕЖДУ ХУДОЖЕСТВЕНАТА ЛИТЕРАТУРА И ЖУРНАЛИСТИЧЕСКИЯ ПАРАТЕКСТ

Author(s): Zhorzheta Cholakova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 9/2024

The article is dedicated to the short stories of Jiří Paděvet, which reveals the role of literature in the reconstruction of historical memory. In the context of recent Czech literature, Padévet's work stands as a counterpoint to the tendencies to detach literature from socio-political issues and recalls its responsibility to defend humanity. Beyond its thematic concerns, Padévet's fiction attracts attention for its original narrative strategy, combining artistic and journalistic discourse. The different levels of external and internal intratextuality, as well as paratextuality, through which the semiosis is realized, are outlined.

ГЕОРГИ СТ. ГЕОРГИЕВ. „СРЕЩИТЕ МИ“: А. КУПРИН, И. БУНИН, Д. МЕРЕЖКОВСКИ

Author(s): Galina Petkova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 9/2024

The publication examines and comments on three short memories of the writer Georgi Stoyanov Georgiev (1896-1980) about his meetings in 1930 with the Russian writers Alexander Kuprin, Ivan Bunin and Dmitry Merezhkovsky who were living as emigrants in Paris at that time. The memoirs were probably written after 1976, preserved in manuscript in the writer's collection at the Central State Archives, and have never been printed. The biographical narrative of G. Georgiev, who lived in silence after the coup of 9 September 1944 is restored. The creative history of the memoirs is reconstructed and hypotheses are proposed for their Aesopian meta-language, thanks to which censorship is circumvented in its various images. The memoirs themselves are provided with a detailed textual commentary that reveals G. Georgiev as a good connoisseur of Russian literature and his role as a mediator between Bulgarian and Russian culture, which has largely remained unknown to our Literary and Slavic studies.
