Professor Mihail Nedelchev’s study represents a detailed analysis of the Bulgarian literary-historical concepts during the last 150 years. It covers the extended period from the first attempts, when a clear understanding of the literary-historical developments was still nonexistent, through the times of bourgeois positivism and the introduction of communist ideology into literary studies, up to the second decade of the 21st century, when pluralism of approaches, of styles, of the views on the very nature of the literary processes becomes a characteristic feature of Bulgarian literary history. The literaryhistorical concepts under review are examined in their relation to the underlying characteristics of the appropriate periods in Bulgarian fiction. This study questions very forcefully the validity of the so-called “great literary-historical narrative”, as established by the canon. Instead, it expresses a belief in the significance and the autonomy of each individual literary-historical story, as well as the understanding that the various stories are superimposed on each other. The study also presents in detail the author’s views on literary history.
