History, Irony, Ethos (Part I)

Authors:

Pages: 147-155

Abstract:

The text reviews the ethos of the Bulgarian revolutionaries Zahary Stoyanov and Stoyan Zaimov, displayed in the contradiction between word and action in 1876. It outlines the ambiguous appraisals in the works of the two authors, especially with regard to the question of whether it is appropriate to use irony in writings about people and events playing key role in the struggle for Bulgarian liberation from the Ottoman rule. This publication presents the first part of the exposition which will be continued in the next issue of this journal.
