(Post)Modern Apocrypha as an Epiphany of Sense (on the Basis of Bulgarian Literary Biblical Paraphrases)

(Post)Modern Apocrypha as an Epiphany of Sense (on the Basis of Bulgarian Literary Biblical Paraphrases)

Author(s): Ewelina Drzewiecka / Language(s): English Issue: 4/2014

The paper is devoted to the author’s concept of modern apocrypha in the context of the two main tendencies of (Post)modernity: unmasking and paraphrasing. On the basis of the literary paraphrases of the Evangelical story, found in the Bulgarian (Post)Modern literary, there is shown a hermeneutic passage from “apocrypha as a literary mystification” (“literary apocrypha”), i.e. a concept often applied in literary studies, to “apocrypha as an epiphany of sense”, i.e. a concept which can be useful in cultural studies and in history of ideas. It is suggested that in the light of the postsecular thought, being an individual interpretation of the canon, the (Post)Modern apocrypha has a great epiphanic potential, which means that hiding minority truths, it reveals in fact some crucial, and crypto-theological, problems of the present. Drawing the axiological difference between “the unmasking apocrypha” (pseudo-gospel) and “the paraphrasing apocrypha” (epiphany of sense), the author claims that only the last one does actually incarnate Charles Taylor’s ideal of the authentic (and poetic) expression (of will), which helps in establishing an individual sense-making horizon as a positive response to the “heretical imperative” of (Post)Modernity.

Kalin Yanakiev as a Writer of Apocrypha? Remarks on the Essay Дебат върху теодицеята (A Debate on Theodicy)

Kalin Yanakiev as a Writer of Apocrypha? Remarks on the Essay Дебат върху теодицеята (A Debate on Theodicy)

Author(s): Grażyna Szwat-Gyłybowa / Language(s): English Issue: 4/2014

The article engages with the philosophical and theological notion of theodicy as formulated by Kalin Yanakiev in Дебат върху теодицеята (A Debate on Theodicy), an essay which appeared in Yanakiev’s book Философски опити върху самотата и надеждата (Philosophical Essays on Solitude and Hope,2008). The article uses the category of apocryphalness to analyse the ideas sparked off in Yanakiev’s work by a passage from Dostoevsky’s The Brothers Karamazov, along with a series of Yanakiev’ s philosophical and poetic images which are interpreted in the biblical and philosophical context. The article also touches on the relationships between Yanakiev’s ideas and Orthodox Christian theodicy.

Дубарова – феноменално и феноменологично битие*

Дубарова – феноменално и феноменологично битие*

Author(s): Elica Dubarova-Petkova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 1/2016

The article concerns a possible and available outlook of the perception of the works and life of the youngest Bulgarian poetess – Petya Dubarova (1962–1979). The phenomenal and phenomenological aspects of her being give the chance to interpret the poetic experience of her works together with the main characteristics of her personality objectively and comprehensively. The terms phenomenal and phenomenological being are considered not from philosophical, but from practical and descriptive viewpoints. Phenomenal in this article is commented through the public and critical response to the tragic suicidal gesture of the young poetess, and phenomenological “reading” is realized in the comparative studying of the poetic visions of the German Romanticist Novalis and Petya Dubarova.

Предсказанията на Матей Лансберг в български фрагмент от XIX в. (щрихи към гадателните книги и профетичната литература на Балканите)

Author(s): Mariyana Tsibranska-Kostova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 17/2017

The article presents comments on and text edition of two folios of the so-called Bulgarian fragment of Mathieu Laensberg’s prophecy, written in the Bulgarian language of the first thirty years of the nineteenth century. The article does not focus on the prophet’s very speculative biography, neither on one of the Enlightenment’s most valued Almanacs, from Belgian Liege, which since its first appearance in 1636 was also associated with Laensberg. Rather, she aims at sketching preliminary observations about some typological features of the prognostic and prophetic literature, both western and eastern, emphasizing the analysed text and its comparison to the horoscopic portion in’s 1838 Perpetual Calendar by Teodor Pirdopski, who was best known as a gifted compiler of damascenes and miscellanies.

Author(s): Marzanna Kuczyńska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 17/2017

Чьтение книгъ – християнска добродетел и агиографски топос в старобългарската книжнина

Author(s): Greta Stoyanova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 13/2013

Reading books in the old Bulgarian literature clearly seems to be the Christian story, functioning as hagiographic topos adopted by fathers of the church in literature of the Slavonic world and is undoubtedly introduced by the Long life of St. Kiril. This trend is also marked by the author in the Speech of a monk was carved into the reading of the books (of the Izbornik from 1076) and proves that in many aspects for Slavic bookmen is generating а model.

Обществото и певецът

Обществото и певецът

Author(s): Sava Sivriev / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 13/2013

The article studies the conflict between Ivan Vazov and the Bulgarian society during the 80s of the 19th c. This conflict is to be seen in Ivan Vazov’s articles in the then Press. It is poetically revealed in his books of poems “Rebec” (1881) and “Fields and Forests” (1884). During the Bulgarian National Revival Ivan Vazov finds it worthy to deny himself, searching identity with the collective body, servicing to the society with the Word and lyric poetry. These are times of ideals and national ideology, through which the Bulgarian society lives its life. During the 80s of the 19th c. the idealism of the Bulgarian Revival thought stays in the past. The remnants of the National Revival theocentrism are substituted by the anthropocentrism of the new times. The mentality of Bulgarian society changes. It aims at gaining money and social success. This new mentality makes the society alien to Ivan Vazov. In his lyric poetry of that time - “Rebec” (1881) and “Fields and Forests”, first, we read the conflict with the society, and then - the drama of the poet’s break of relations with this society. Ivan Vazov seeks an individual sense of being. At the end of “Fields and Forests”, after the dramatic breakoff with the society we find a new program for the meaning of life and creativity. A poet should not serve the collective values. He is an elect. His talent is a gift of God. A poet should not go down with the others. They should go up to him. His life is in the world of the ideal things. For Ivan Vazov the new meaning is a life within culture, art, creativity, to overcome solitude, sadness, grief, lack of sense, i.e. anthropocentrism again, but being a world of ideas.

The battle scenes in the novelette reflect those of the frightening characters in Karl May’s novels. The emphasis has been put not on the stereotypical expectations of the Bulgarian revivalist literature as an apology of slave sufferings but on the eternal subject of war and man’s inherent wish of resistance.

Адаптация към съвременните реалности или оцеляване в либералната джунгла

Author(s): Petar Stefanov / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 12/2012

The article deals with the state of children’s literature in Bulgaria after the beginning of the democratic changes. It establishes the absence of some of its major components, mostly resulting from the lack of strategy for its place, role and development, as well as from a certain indifference on behalf of the society and the state. The reasons for the current state of children’s literature are seen also in new phenomena, that change not only the way in which we live, but the spiritual make-up of adolescents. Admitting that nowadays it is impossible to return the same cult toward fiction to the children, that was characteristic in the past, the author reflects upon the possibilities for unification of the efforts of both the cultural and educational institutions to support learning and literacy in order for children to be able to join this universal source of information: the book.

Изборът да бъдеш Ахасфер (Две източни пиеси на Борис Априлов)

Author(s): Vihren Chernokozhev / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 12/2012

The subject-matter of the paper is connected with the name of the writer Boris Aprilov whose works and fate have been aesthetisized through the prism of the eternal motif of the wandering Jew. The choice of being Ahasfer - the person condemned to eternal wanderings, uncomprehended, far away from his homeland, is a self-induced choice. The text is not limited to the historical and biographical facts connected with Aprilov but interprets two of his “Eastern” plays: The One Thousand and the Second and the comedy The King’s New Clothes. The paper reveals new information about Aprilov’s works, the relations among writers, actors, playwrights and the first steps of the Satirical Theatre, blessed by the Starshel newspaper.

За комунизма и посткомунизма в България в литературните репортажи на Илия Троянов. Кучешки времена. Революцията Менте 1989

Author(s): Snezhana Boycheva / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 1/2014

Ilia Troyanov’s reports “Dog Times” present a thorough analysis and criticism of communist era and the post-communist period in Bulgaria.”The Fake Revolution 1989”, appeared after the changes, after the author researched the archives and interviewed the witnesses of the depicted events. In a nutshell, Troyanov’s message is that communism has left deep marks not only in people’s mentality, but it has also bequeathed to us the establishment. The social group of former favored people - security force officers, plant managers and party secretaries held Bulgarian economy hostage. Twenty years after the changes few things have changed in Bulgaria, the so-called tender revolution of 1989 has turned out to be a fake. The old structures of power have remained virtually intact under the cover of political and economic underhand dealings.

Традиция и модерност в поезията на Пенчо Славейков

Author(s): Temenuga Teneva / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 1/2011

Pencho Slavejkov is described as "a father of the Bulgarian modernism". Reading the universality of the philosophical ideas about man and art in his poetry is helped by a generalized representation of the folkloric culture as familiarity and deposition (extraction) of the family experience.

Cromo-simbolistică în literatura bulgară contemporană

Cromo-simbolistică în literatura bulgară contemporană

Author(s): Cătălina Puiu / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 2/2019

Beyond their specific properties, colours encompass a vast array of symbolical,social, as well as religious meanings, which may vary greatly from one culture to another, and are not at all universal. They can represent physical or moral traits, convey gestures, states of mind and spirit. The authors' predilection for „colorful titles” suggest their multiple symbolism and diverse interpretation. In the work of the Bulgarian writers discussed in this paper (Gheorghi Gospodinov, Teodora Dimova, Zahari Karabashliev) the chromatic symbols preserve their entire traditional value, but they evolve however toward knowledge and exploration.
