 History of Bulgaria - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bulgarian national feeling began to revive in the early 19th century under the influence of western ideas such as liberalism and nationalism, which trickled into the country after the French revolution, mostly via Greece.
Resistance to the Germans and the Bulgarian regime was widespread by 1943, co-ordinated mainly by the Communists.
In 1870 the Bulgarian Patriarchate was revived, and the Patriarch became the natural leader of the emerging nation.

 Bulgaria - a brief history ouline - The Bulgarian national revival
The Bulgarian Revival, this 'wonder of the 19th century', as Louis Leger called it, does not lend to a sketchy, diagrammatical description; it cannot be conceived as the direct result of the existing economic base, which remained but implicit.
The movement for Bulgarian education and an independent Bulgarian church, this 'bourgeois peaceful revolution in the Bulgarian lands' (Dimiter Blagoev) engaged generations of national enlighteners, some of whom fell prey to the persecution and slander of the Patriarchy and the Ottoman rule.
Vassil Levski advanced a new tactics of revolutionary struggle which consisted in carrying out a purposeful and prolonged political and organizing work among the Bulgarians within the movement for national education and for an independent Bulgarian church, a movement that had developed during the preceding decades.

 Bulgaria - NATIONAL REVIVAL, EARLY STAGES
The Bulgarian national revival took place in the larger context of Christian resistance to Turkish occupation of Eastern and Central Europe--a cause whose momentum increased as the Ottoman Empire crumbled from within.
The monasteries of an increasingly independent Bulgarian church fostered national thought and writing; Western influences altered the nature of commerce and landholding in the Balkans; and the forcible assimilation of Bulgarian culture into a cosmopolitan Asian society ended, allowing Bulgarian national consciousness to reawaken.
Meanwhile, large population shifts occurred as Bulgarians fled the taxation and violence inflicted by this anarchic condition; the new communities they founded in Romania and southern Russia were important sources of cultural and political ideas in the nineteenth century.

 Interdisciplinary studies
The discriminative policy of the Bulgarian authorities, termed the revival process, has left indelible traces in the minds of a large number of the Bulgarian people, regardless of their ethnic or religious identification.
National identity represents this aspect of identity which has undergone most serious transformations and this is due to the attained Turkish citizenship and rights, as well as to their overall disposition to settle permanently in their new home country.
The nation is perceived as a big family, and its members - as brothers and sisters, as close relatives.” Within the framework of this discourse, national identity should also be supposed to mean identification with the nation-community in its two models.

 Bulgaria - BULGARIAN INDEPENDENCE
In spite of Bulgarian sympathy for national liberation movements nearby, and although the ideals of those movements permeated the Balkans from 1804 on, the anarchy of the early 1800s confined expression of Bulgarian national feeling primarily to the cultural realm until the 1860s.
(Bulgarians still celebrate the signing of the Treaty of San Stefano rather than the Treaty of Berlin as their national independence day.) In late 1878, a provisional Bulgarian government and armed uprisings had already surfaced in the Kresna and Razlog regions of Macedonia.
Bulgarian aid to the Russians in the Russo-Turkish wars of 1806-12 and 1828-29 did nothing to loosen Ottoman control.

 Bulgarian Monasteries
During the Ottoman domination (l5th -l9th century), and particularly during the period of the National Revival (l8th-l9th century), the monastic communities acquired a key role in Bulgaria's public life as the monasteries turned into animated sociopolitical and artistic centres and a field of spiritual and material expression of the reviving Bulgarian nation.
During the period of the National Revival in Bulgaria considerable progress was made by the Rila and Bachkovo, Troyan and Preobrazhenie, Kilifarevo and Kapinovo, Arapovo and Ossenovlashko, Gorno Vodene and Rozhen monasteries and dozens of other monasteries, convents and cloisters.
The excavations in the old Bulgarian capitals of Pliska and Preslav are a convincing proof of the fact that it was in the monastery complexes that the new Christian culture in Bulgaria came into being.

 Bulgarian Printmakers: Woodcut Print Artists
The real beginning of Bulgarian woodblock prints is in the middle of 19th century, during the national revival period when the foundations of Bulgarian culture were laid.
Two formal trends; appear in the graphic works of the Revival periods, which are patriotic and educational in content: a striving to imitate ‘academic’ European drawing, and the continuation of the old Bulgarian “style of painting”; the second is the better and more skillfully manifested in woodcuts.
In the medieval icon and in Bulgarian mural paintings, but chiefly in the Old Bulgarian miniatures, there are elements, which, as far as plastic idiom and style are concerned, belong to graphic art, rather than to painting.

The famous architect of the Bulgarian National Revival, Kolyo Ficheto, embarked on the construction of the new church.

It was burned to the ground when the capital of the Second Bulgarian State was taken; centuries had pass before life was reinstated here, on the top of the ruins.

This was a period of a national advance, for which the inclusion of the Bulgarian people in the family of Slav peoples was of particularly great significance.
Since the Old Bulgarian writings were written in two alphabets – the Cyrillic and the Glagolitic – there has been a long dispute over the question: which of the two Old Bulgarian alphabets was the one created by Cyril.
