    Summary
    "What can be done to help the Bulgarians" ("Chem mozhno pomoch bolgaram") is one of the most interesting documents preserved in the archive of Lyuben Karavelov (National Library "Vasil Kolarov", Bulgarian Historical Archive, Fund No. 2, Archival Unit 21, p. 6-11). This is a report to the Moscow Slavophile Charity Committee, which sets out a detailed program for the creation of a Belgrade branch of the committee. The text written by Karavelov was corrected and supplemented by the Russian revolutionary democrat Ivan Gavrilovich Prizhov. Thus, the document also reveals new aspects of the cooperation between the two revolutionaries. "Chem mozhno pomoch bol garam" has repeatedly attracted the attention of researchers. The document has already had two editions. The first is by Academician Mikhail Dimitrov in "The Journalism of Lyuben Karavelov before the Publication of the Newspaper "Svoboda", S. 1957, pp. 622-625, the second by the Soviet scholar L. V. Vorobyov in "Notices of the Institute of Literature at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences", vol. IX, 1960, p. 275. The edition by Academician M. Dimitrov reflects almost exclusively Karavelov's text. It is indeed noted that there are corrections on it by another person. It is also said that according to L. V. Vorobyov this person is the Russian publicist I. G. Prizhov.

    Summary
    A quarter century - this is, one might say, the minute hand of history. Especially for a people like the Bulgarians, whose history and culture have existed for so long. And at the same time, the last twenty-five years are an entire era in the social life and consciousness of this people, saturated with a huge and diverse historical experience. The desire to make sense of this experience, to understand its roots and meaning, is a characteristic feature of contemporary Bulgarian literature. Bulgarian writers with remarkable intensity develop the dramatic events of the September Uprising of 1923. For the first time in Europe, the dawn of anti-fascist battles flared up. The Bulgarian people took the front lines of the front, which had, as it soon became clear, global significance. The scale and historical meaning of this struggle are clearly felt in Georgi Karaslavov's epic "Ordinary People" and in Emilian Stanev's "Ivan Kondarev".
