Author: Axinia Dzurova Year of publication: 2022 ISBN: 9789540755236 Pages: 482 Cover: hard cover, big size Publisher: UI Sv. Kliment Okhridski Language: French and Bulgarian
The edition is a result of nearly 50 years of research by the author of the largest collection of Greek manuscripts preserved on the territory of Bulgaria, spanning the chronological range from the 9th to the 19th century. Of the over 450 Greek manuscripts, half of them are from the 9th-14th century period. From them, the author has selected 86 in view of the peculiarities of their decoration. Each volume contains a preface outlining the peculiarities of the different types and styles in the decoration of the respective period; annotations to each manuscript, with an emphasis on the decoration and illustrations and its location within a wide geographical area, covering both the production of the Constantinople workshops and those of Mainland Greece, as well as production in the eastern and western Byzantine provinces. Each manuscript is also represented by color illustrations.
The series is intended for specialists in the decoration of medieval manuscripts, but also for teaching students of Greek palaeography, codicology and art history, in a word for those interested in medieval codex culture in general. The three volumes are also of interest to researchers of the Slavic manuscript tradition, which developed in direct connection with that of Byzantium, but also suffered its own modifications and interpretations. In general, the research is the result of the author’s long-term studies in the field of model-recipient, center-periphery relationships, scriptoriums and traveling writers and calligraphers.

Magnificent icons in Bulgaria IX-XIX century
Magnificent icons in Bulgaria IX-XIX century
Author: Georgi Parpulov Year of publication: 2021 ISBN: 9786199074169 Pages: 224 Cover: hard cover, big size Publisher: METHODIVS BOOKS Language: English
“Magnificent icons in Bulgaria IX-XIX century” Luxury edition Magnificent icons in Bulgaria is a project of METHODIVS BOOKS publishing house, representing one hundred Orthodox Christian icons, created in the span of a millennium – from X to XIX century, currently part of the collections of the National Archaeological Institute with a museum at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, National Gallery/Museum of Christian Art, National Museum of Ecclesiastical History and Archaeology, National History Museum and Rozhen Monastery “Holy Nativity of the Mother of God”. This priceless heritage of centuries-old icons, certifying the indisputable Bulgarian contribution to European and world art, is still not well known in our country and around the world. This publication is aiming to promote in a distinguished and technically innovative way the wonderful examples of Bulgarian Christian art. Author of the texts is the renowed Byzantine scholar Dr. Georgi Parpulov. The selection of the icons is done by the publisher Methodius Petrikov. What is excellent about the captions is that Georgi Parpulov, who is an internationally recognized authority on Byzantine and Bulgarian art, give a great deal of evidence in a short and succinct manner. Information is given about the state of painting and where there have been later restorations and repairs, and in some case re-painting. Also valuable is that the original inscriptions on the icons have been transcribed, and their contents well laid out. All are dated, and these attributions are well considered and accurate, despite the well-known difficulties of dating Orthodox church icons. The photographic printing for this book is excellent, and certainly makes the quality of the works chosen stand out. I am sure that this book will become a landmark in the appreciation of icons in Bulgaria, and it will renew interest in their importance.

The Ancient and Medieval City of Perperikon. Volume 1. The Acropolis
The Ancient and Medieval City of Perperikon. Volume 1. The Acropolis
Author: Nikolay Ovcharov, Zdravko Dimitrov, Daniela Kodzhamanova, Konstantin Dochev, Dimitar Stoimenov, Nikolay Sharankov Year of publication: 2021 ISBN: 9786197629040 Pages: 556 Cover: hard cover, big size Publisher: Unicart Language: English and Bulgarian
This book is an account or decades of explorations conducted on a grand scale on Perperikon, one of the best-known archaeological sites in Bulgaria. People lived on this famous hill near Kardzhali 7,000 years ago, in the Late Chalcolithic. A sanctuary was built there to function well into the Bronze, the Early and the Late Iron Ages (second-first mill. BC). With the Roman conquest at the turn of the Common Era, a major city was founded there, flourishing in the medieval period until it fell to the Ottomans in 1362 after a long siege.
The book goes into detail about, first and foremost, the ancient and medieval periods of Perperikon within the city’s fortified part, the Acropolis. The structure of the city is established, in the first instance, in the Roman and Late Antique periods to arrive at the conclusion that an unprecedented in history attempt has been made to develop the ancient urban planning in the challenging semi-mountainous areas of the Eastern Rhodopes. It was then that new streets were laid out and monumental public buildings and houses, temples and fortified strongholds were erected in the Acropolis of Perperikon. With the conversion to Christianity in the early fifth century, remarkable churches were built on the site of pagan temples.
Life in Perperikon went on even in the period between the early decades of the seventh and the beginning of the ninth century, when the Eastern Roman Empire (Byzantium) had hard times. After the eighteenth or twelfth century, the city enjoyed prosperity once again, evolving into a major medieval centre, over which the Byzantine Empire and the Bulgarian Kingdom waged several wars. The place was desolate by the late fourteenth century, when even the Ottoman garrison left, stationed there after the castle was captured in 1361.
The book gives a detailed account of the unearthed monumental architecture of all historical periods. Published is also the significant thirteenth-fourteenth-century medieval necropolis. Highly informative are the parts containing over 5,000 coins dating from the fifth century BC to the fourteenth century AD; Byzantine lead seals; remarkable ethnographic artefacts. These lend more comprehensiveness and informativeness to the picture of the life in the ancient and medieval city of Perperikon.

James Harvey Gaul: In Memoriam. In The Steps Of James Harvey Gaul. Vol. 1
James Harvey Gaul: In Memoriam. In The Steps Of James Harvey Gaul. Vol. 1
Author: Co. Year of publication: 1998 ISBN: 9544910263 Pages: 418 Cover: hard cover, big size Publisher: The James Harvey Gaul Fondation Language: Multilingual
The new series of ‘The James Harvey Gaul Foundation – Sofia’ has the objective ‘to bring together scholarship by publishing up to-date, first-hand, detailed studies written mainly by scholars from south-eastern Europe on various aspects of the ancient history and archaeology of south-eastern Europe’ (p. iii).Thirty-four authors contribute in the first volume with articles on periods from the late Paleolithic to the early Iron Ages. Since it is not possible to discuss all papers in detail, this short book note will only summarize the overall research focus of the volume, and briefly comment on some thematic and chronological issues of the prehistory of the Balkans. The publication of the excavation at Kamenska Cuka in southwestern Bulgaria (1993-1995) by M. Stefanovich and H.A. Bankoff is the cornerstone of the volume (pp. 255-338). A building was buried under a tumulus (c. 30 m in diameterand 5 mhigh) which was used as a burial mound in the Roman period. The two-storey high and quadrangular shaped building,which must have dominated the local landscape, has been excavated – in total anarea of more than 320 m2. The walls had no substructure or foundation trench, but rather dividing walls. It has to be stressed that it contained a rich ceramics inventory. Archaeological, radiocarbon and archaeo magnetic dating place the building in the late Bronze Age (fourteenth-twelfth centuries BC). Several authors in the volume publish new data from the Neolithic period. S. Chohadzhiev and V. Genadieva (pp. 79-89), for example, present new evidence of white painted pottery from the Nevestino site from the middle Strumavalley, which has some parallels with the earliest whitepainted pottery in the northern Balkans. I. Vajsov (pp. 107-141) suggests a new typology of Neolithic figurines from the Balkans based on new evidence from northeastern Bulgaria. In addition to the typology, the author discusses the so-called monochrome stage of the early Neolithic in southeastern Europe and scrutinizes the chronology and geographic distribution of the different figurine types. M. Özdogan and Y. Dede, on the other hand, produce a detailed study of ananthropomorphic vessel from Toptepe(south-eastern Thrace) from the late sixth millennium BC (pp.143-151). Articles on the Copper Age include V.Ya. Sorokin and I.A. Boreznyak’s paper on the Tripolje BII figurines from Yablona I (Moldova). The illustrations of 78 figurines summarize the different types of figurines from this site. There are also seven male figurines, which are usually rare finds in Carpatho-Balkan prehistory. In another paper from this time period, V. Popov argues on the basis of the stratigraphy of the tell in Rousse that the earlier levels indicate an occupation from the beginning of the Chalcolithic (pp. 183- 196). H. Todorova (pp. 43, 45) and Ya. Boyadzhiev (pp. 353-360) deal with the following period and discuss the so-called ‘invasion theory’ as the trigger ofimportant evident culture changes in the fourth millennium BC in the Balkans. However, recent archaeological evidence from the Balkans in the fourth and third millennia BC suggests that the seprocesses are more complex and most likely based on social transformations within this region. It can be argued that the Pit-Grave culture represents a foreign component in this area from the later early Bronze Age I on wards but consequently was integrated within the local population.

Fifty women in Bulgarian painting
Fifty women in Bulgarian painting
Author: Co. Year of publication: 2020 ISBN: 9789549473490 Pages: 205 Cover: hard cover, big size Publisher: SGHG Language: English and Bulgarian
This luxurious album presents readers with a carefully selected collection of artworks by fifty female artists who worked in the genre of painting in Bulgaria during the period from National Liberation (1878) until around the end of 20-th century. Given the large number of women who also worked in other areas of the plastic arts in Bulgaria (graphics, sculptures, ceramics, textiles) across a span of more than a hundred years we considered it appropriate to restrict the panorama of names and artworks to painting only.

The coinage of Philippopolis. Volume 1: Chronology of Philipopolis Coinage, Dating, Reverse Types, Denominations. Volume 2: Catalogue
Author: Ivan Varbanov Year of publication: 2019 ISBN: 9789549080193; 9789549080100 Pages: 622 Cover: hard cover Publisher: Adikom Language: English
In the first volume, the chronology of the Philippopolis coinage and all the averse coin types are presented, as well as all varieties of their averse and reverse inscriptions. The dating of these coins, which is an important element of their identification, is also presented in details. The reverse types depicted on the Philippopolis coins, as well as all their variants, were examined in depth. An important part of the first volume is also the presentation of the denominations issued in this mint. Generally, they are divided into six separate denominations, as the medallions are presented separately. Each nominal is presented using detailed tables with all the available parameters of the specimens used. At the end of each denomination, the average coin parameters of each emperor or member of his family, whose images are depicted on coins of that denomination, are presented. There are graphs added, showing a graphical representation of the maximum, the average and the minimum coin weight of the respective denomination, which enables the graphical tracing of the changes at the different emperors. There are also graphs giving the maximum, the average and the minimum coin diameter of each denomination where the changes of this parameter can be traced over time and with each emperor. There are inevitably such that lack some of their parameters: size, weight or axis. All the parameters available have been used when compiling these tables, therefore a certain discrepancy may occur between the number of coins with a given diameter and of those with a given weight for each denomination. However, this method makes it possible for more information to be used for each parameter of the corresponding denomination, which makes the average parameter much more accurate and minimizes its interpolation. In the second volume, the systematized catalog with the coin images is presented. For the creation of this catalog have been used over 8000 coins from the Philippopolis mint. Due to the large contents of all available specimens, the catalog has been optimized and an optimal number of coins is presented so that absolutely all the subspecies and varieties specified in this study can be presented.

Sofia – Architectural Guide
Author: Georgi Stanishev Year of publication: 2019 ISBN: 9783869226576 Pages: 320 Cover: paperback Publisher: Iztok – Zapad Language: English
Sofia is one of the oldest cities in Europe, and it remains a relatively undiscovered melting pot of Eastern and Western cultures. Its urban fabric comprises a vast range of architectures, with structures by the ancient Thracians, the Romans, the Byzantines, as well as works from the Bulgarian medieval era, the Ottoman Empire, and the modern day, including the peculiar period of communist historicism and modernism. This book presents the city and its capacity to produce a singular architectural experience by tracing its geography and dissecting its historical layers.Architectural Guide Sofia catalogues not only monuments and sites overlooked by standard tourist guides, but also the city’s most recent buildings, highlighting innovative works by contemporary architects. It profiles 200 selected structures from different eras, explores the genesis of the local architectures, and analyses the architectural details born out of clashes of various stylistic influences. Maps, illustrations, and an extensive bibliography help readers and travellers experience the extraordinary diversity of Sofia’s built environment.
