Abstract:
This contribution examines two modern, "Neo-Bogomil" groups: the Universal White Brotherhood (Bulgaria), and the Balkan Bogomil Center (Croatia). Both of these groups claim not only the authority of Bogomilism but ancient "Gnosticism," articulating these dualist heresies in terms of Theosophy as well as South-Eastern European religious and ethnic-national identities formulated in the later nineteenth century.

Abstract:
The sanctuary in the area Mishkova Niva near the town of Malko Tarnovo is an ancient object of our cultural heritage. For many years the site is inaccessible because it falls behind the border enclosure, in the nobody area between Bulgaria and Turkey. However, the site is present with bizarre legends in the local complex of folk narratives. It has been studied by several archaeological expeditions, adorned by Laitsi with exotic and modernist stories of fantasy-type, and today it is fully accessible for visits by ordinary and pilgrimage tourists. Many legends turn it into one of the big prides, but also the great care of the Malkotrnovska municipality.

Abstract:
The review is devoted to the analysis of the new lexicographic work of the Bulgarian dialectologists of the Prof. L. Andreichin Institute of the Bulgarian Language. BAN, ―a dictionary of one archaic dialect of the Ropka region in the Western Rhodope Mountains. The book is a logical continuation of S. Keremedchieva’s 1993 monograph, which describes the grammar of this dialect. The dictionary significantly complements the understanding of it, which makes it the first comprehensive study of the Rhodope dialect at several linguistic levels: phonological, morphological and lexical. Due to its basic linguistic features, this dialect became a link between the Thracian and central Rhodope dialects, whose speakers, due to a number of geopolitical reasons and events, found themselves outside the borders of modern Bulgaria, in Greece and Turkey. The local Bulgarian population was mostly Islamized in the XVII century, and after the Liberation of Bulgaria in 1879–1882 and 1912, part of the families of Bulgarian Muslims from the villages of Pavelsko, Orekhovo and Studenets were resettled to Asia Minor, Turkey. According to one of the etymological versions of the origin of the name of the village Pavelsko, the fact of the existence here in the past of adherents of the Pavlikian heresy, whose center was the village of Pavelsko, is likely. This hypothesis is supported by numerous linguistic links between the Ropkа dialect and the Pavlikian dialect in Bulgaria. The Ropka dialect has accumulated features of a certain stage in the development of the Bulgarian language, preserving a number of its archaic features, including vocabulary and morphology. Despite the modern intensive changes taking place in everyday life, culture and language, the inhabitants of the Ropka region have preserved their ancestral memory and customs, songs and legends, melodious Rhodope dialect with its ancient features and inimitable architectonics. Rich authentic dialect material is a serious lexical database and a source for scientific research in various fields, including ethnolinguistics.

Full text
Abstract:
A rather small portion of old Slavonic literatures is thematically linked with the journey to the Holy Land. Of many Serbian pilgrims over the centuries only three left more detailed descriptions of Bulgarian places and parts: patriarch Arsenije III, Jerotej of Raca and Silvestar Popovic. They described, each in his own way, some of the places and areas along the road to Istanbul or Salonika. Their vivid depiction of encounters with people and observations about the places they saw on their way reveal only a fragment of life in the seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Ottoman empire. In a seemingly ordinary way, they incorporate into their own epoch the legends heard from the people they met. The descriptions of Bulgarian parts in the Serbian accounts of pilgrimage have all the appeal that generally characterizes travel literature. Although their literary value is modest they belong among the works characterized by the simplicity and immediacy of experience. Rather than being the result of a strong literary ambition, they are witness to the need to speak about the great journey, quite an adventurous enterprise at the time.

Abstract:
Following the footsteps of ancient civilizations is not easy at all. One should always start from the oldest data, going through the itineraries of guidebooks, legends, legends, comparisons, archaeological excavations, assumptions and hypotheses of different authors. The territory of Dardania, was a very rich territory with various and very precious mines and minerals, and also to search for a very rich city and civilization which is known more by its coins, is also challenging but also easily defined. According to the data and finds of coins from this city we see that we have done with the extension of the monopoly all over the Illyrian Peninsula, including Bulgaria, Greece, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Albania and Kosovo as well. Therefore, we should always look for the city of Damastion in the area of ancient Dardania, since this area also had an influence on the entire region.

Abstract:
Due to the insufficient amount of written evidence covering a particular chronological period, researchers are forced to resort, among others, to the help of folklore sources. In this article the author tried to identify the real historical basis of the plots of a number of Udmurt folklore works, which are often used to illustrate the history of interaction between the Udmurts and the peoples and states of the Middle Volga region in the period of the X–XVI centuries. As the research has shown, the considered historical stories and legends actually reflect historical events dating back to the period of the XVII–XIX centuries. In a number of cases, significant authorial interference in the plot of folklore works was revealed. Thus, the analyzed historical stories and legends cannot be used to highlight events dating back to the existence of the Volga-Kama Bulgaria, the Mongol conquests of Eastern Europe, as well as to the Golden Horde and Kazan periods of the history of the Middle Volga region.

Abstract:
The article examines the formation of the special resort as a topos in which the pro-cesses of construction and functioning of literary texts were activated in the time of social realism, when privileges and benefits were created for special category of writ-ers. The process began with the formation of the Union of Fighters Against Fascism and Capitalism and grew with the special writers' awards given out on various occa-sions. The preferential use of recreational areas in Bulgaria also creates a kind of zoning - Borovets, Sozopol, Hisarya (Villa "Petrovich"), Varna, "Golden Sands" and others are assigned to Union of the Bulgarian Writers. In this context, literary collec-tions of short stories, novels, literary legends, etc. are compiled. The main thesis of the research is that resort-themed works combine ideology and literature while seemingly maintaining their tolerance for dominant socio-ideology. At the same time, they form a layer of relative freedom and are a peculiar escape from the cruel reality of the totali-tarian state. For the purpose of the report, the normative base (laws, rules, regula-tions, etc.) for the period 1944-1965, as well as memories, letters, journalistic materi-als, archives, works of fiction, are studied.

Abstract:
In the article the author considers the basic ideas of the Moscow ethnolinguistic school on the basis of several examples from the South Slavic cultural dialects. The methods are similar to the technique of isolating certain linguistic dialects and cultural dialects; much attention is paid to justification of the concept ?cultural dialect.? Eastern Serbia and western Bulgaria were taken as an example for the analysis of dialects based on phonetic, grammatical features and those that are observed in folk culture and which are reflected in its terminological vocabulary. Research was carried out into one of the main arealogical regularities that is linked to the interaction between cultural and language contexts of its functioning (in the sphere of beliefs and rituals, in folklore texts - legends, stories about encounters with supernatural beings, etc.). For example, ?bear?s day? shows the areal scheme of concentric circles, according to which the central place belongs to the terminological vocabulary, as far as the distance from the center is concerned, there are only rituals and beliefs associated with the ?bear? symbols of the holiday, and the wide range covers the extent of the legend of St. Andrew riding a bear. The paper concludes with a description of the geographic background in the ethnolinguistic dictionary Slavic Antiquities, whose main purpose is a reconstruction of old Slavic culture aided by the linguistic method of study of folk culture, i.e. the study of verbal expressions for a number of cultural phenomena (lexical and phraseological items).

Abstract:
In the beginning of 1550s the diplomats of Russian Tsar Ivan IV for the first time used the legend about «Kazan tribute» and «Dorpat tribute» to justify the historical rule over Kazan and German Livonia. The story about «Kazan tribute» was firstly mainstreamed during the reign of Ivan IV; however, the «Dorpat tribute» was mentioned in the Russian-Livonian treaties of 15th century – its origin is still unknown. For the first time in historiography this article compares two stories. The author examines the sources of both legends, their author, the role in the justification of the continuity between the ancient Rus’ of Rurikovichi and Moscow Russia of Ivan IV, the relation between the terms «otchina» (paternity), «dan’» (tribute), «zemlya» (land). Since the 1470s Moscow began to rethink the tribute relationships, that had been established in Mongol-Turk political space. This resulted in an attempt to stop the payments for the Chan of Crimea (1473) and to demand the tribute from the Bishop of Dorpat (Russian Yuryev, 1474). Based on the Text of «Primary chronicle» the Russian intellectuals claimed the identity of Volga Bulgaria and Kazan, ancient Russian Yuryev and German Dorpat in the text of Nikon Chronicle. The main criterion for the hereditary rule over the territory was «zemlya» (land) as the political category, regardless of the ethnicity and religion of its population. The author concludes that the courtier Alexey Adashev edited the story about «Dorpat tribute» following the example of «Kazan tribute» story. Thus, there is a direct intertextual dependence between the two stories.

Abstract:
This chapter describes and explains the Holy Grail Route, its process of design as a tourism product, and the tools and methodologies that proved very useful in coming up with new tourism services for the route. This was based on a European research COSME project within the H2020 program, which ran from 2014 to 2016, with the objective being to plan and promote a European thematic, tourist, and transnational route. The basic idea arising from the project is the international collective imagery surrounding the Holy Grail and its traditions, legends, and culture (novels, films, tales), and creating a European route in which different countries and partners are represented: Bulgaria, Greece, Malta, Spain, and Great Britain. The route explores different ideas and topics such as the Arthurian legends, Cathar stories, and Christian traditions. In the case of Spain, the Christian traditions are very deep and have a huge popular appeal. The authors have found modern novels, historical representations, and cultural movements created specifically around it, and a great many Christians wanting to work in the sphere of this important relic, the Holy Grail, which is kept in Valencia cathedral and, for centuries, was in the territory of Aragon. What are the main goals of this project? What kind of social and economic agents have been involved in it? Both the theoretical framework and methods used will be explained in this chapter.

Abstract Aside from the legend of a Middle Eastern origin, the Magyars in reality seem to have had FinnUgaric origins with traces of TurcoTartar elements. They had long practiced a nomadic lifestyle in central Asia and finally migrated westward past the Ural, Volga, Don, Dnieper, and at last the Danube Rivers. In chis movement, they had to successively fight and defeat ocher nomadic tribes, such as the Bulgars, Khazars, and Pecchenegs. le was finally the pressure of the Pecchenegs and Bulgars who drove the Magyars into Europe. As they entered eastern Europe, they encountered the power of the Byzantine Empire, which hired them as mercenaries and introduced them to Christianity; likewise, Germanic kings hired chem to aid in fighting the Slavs.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter argues that, formally, narratively, and thematically, the character of Michael Myers is constructed as a haunted force, and Haddonfield as a haunted space. One common framework for dealing with the supernatural in literature comes from the Bulgarian structural narratologist Tzvetan Todorov. Todorov delineated three modes for the literary supernatural: the Marvellous, the Uncanny and the Fantastic. Many of Halloween's most effective moments similarly depend on Fantastic hesitation. The chapter then explores the themes of haunted houses and legend tripping in Halloween, as well as the utilization of sound in implying a kind of omnipresence to Michael's presence and perspective. John Carpenter's musical score works similarly to project Michael's presence beyond his body.

Abstract:
The creation of the Slavic alphabet is one of the key events in Slavic history, which found a place in a number of Russian historical works from the Tale of Bygone Years to the Russian Chronograph. The story Legend of book offerings, based on Bulgarian hagiographic works, is widespread. The Tale of the Baptism of the Russians, included in several Russian chronicles, speaks of a philosopher overlapping with St. Cyril, who spoke with Prince Vladimir. In some editions of the Chronograph, the text On the Proposed Books appears, borrowed from the Life of St. Cyril in the Simple Prologue. Texts of the „sum of years“ type also note the christening of the Bulgarians and the creation of the Slavic alphabet. Cyril and Methodius are presented as Slavic first teachers and saints, and their work is significant for the whole Orthodox world. In earlier writings, the two brothers were named only by their names, while in later writings they were called saints and philosophers. Methodius stays out of the interest of writers, only in the Russian Chronograph his name is again placed on a par with that of Cyril.

Abstract:
The following paper is an attempt at a complete analysis of the theme of Cyril and Methodius in the iconography at the Arapovo Monastery. In 1864 in the cella of the “St. Nedeliya” church, ten paintings, depicting the work of the Slavic teachers, were painted. They have been examined numerous times over the years, but different publications offer different interpretations of depiction for each of the scenes. The paper presents the current condition, as well as content, of said depictions. An attempt has been made to provide a background for the scenes depicted, based on available texts from the 19th century. One of the paintings depicts St. Cyril as the one who converted the Bulgarian ruler to Christianity, which contradicts the legend of Methodius, that was popular during the Bulgarian National Revival. The depiction of St. Cyril in this role could be based on “The Legend of Thessalonica” (better known in Bulgarian as “Solun”), “The Dormition of Cyril” and “The Czech Legend”, which were available in publications dating from the early 19th century. The examples lead to the conclusion that the switch of roles in the conversion scene was an intentional choice, representing the patriotic understandings of young painter Georgi Danchov regarding the fight for an independent church which was occurring during that decade. A thematically identical scene, which depicts St. Methodius in the role of baptizer, was painted in the monastery’s holy spring. The paper also provides an image with initials present, according to which, the painting was done in 1870 by Aleksi Atanasov. It depicts the Thessalonica Brothers as they are compiling the alphabet, surrounded by their pupils. There are nine people present, as opposed to the usual seven, usually referred to as the “Seven Saints”. A brochure, put out in 1857 by the bishop Polycarp, provides an explanation for that number. In publications from 1988 and 2008, there are mentions of painted figures, identified as St. Cyril and St. Methodius. These depictions serve as basis for two hypotheses for identifying them that the paper explores. The more likely of the two is the one that connects these depictions to St. Cyril and St. Athanasius of Alexandria. The monastery’s katholikon features depictions of St. Cyril and St. Methodius at the southern entrance, as well as two icons, signed by Georgi Danchov in 1866 and Nikola Danchov in 1871.
