The creators of artistic values ​​are a few people marked by fate, who cross the borders of many countries, inspiring more than one generation. The significance and the charming power of these creative personalities are all the greater and more comprehensive, the more organic the connection between artistic achievements and public behavior, between ideological-aesthetic insights and civic-ethical positions. Such people, like a beacon, attract the eyes of all who live with the impulses of a more intense spiritual life, possessed by higher ideals for social well-being and moral elevation. Readers turn to the work of such artists in order to become related to their soul and thinking, to find support for their torments and searches. Such a source of wisdom and knowledge, of ideological-aesthetic experiences and civic-humanistic ideals is undoubtedly the creative biography of Lyudmil Stoyanov, who has already crossed the last quarter of a century. For more than half a century, the personality of the writer and citizen Lyudmil Stoyanov has been towering in our literary and cultural life. It evokes love and gratitude not only in our country, but also among the cultural community of other countries. His life and creative path is truly rarely instructive. Many of the problems of the time, the anxieties and insights of several generations, the trends of our national literary and cultural development for decades have found embodiment in his work. Having gone through harsh trials, having paid tribute to the fashionable aesthetic trends of the beginning of the century, L. Stoyanov demonstrated ideological and moral stability, overcoming dangerous passions, in order to harden and rise later with all his stature as a humanist creator and a communist citizen.

The Bulgarian periodical press is the characteristic manifestation of the Revival. More than two centuries late to Europe, it is widely developed and covers (especially after the Liberation) the entire socio-political, economic and cultural life of the country. To a significant extent, the work of ardent patriots, the Bulgarian press takes an active part in the problems of its time. It is impossible to present the struggles of the Revival without the feverish journalistic activity of Karavelov, Slaveykov, Botev; the work of the party - without the support of "Novo Vreme", "Rabotnicheski Vestnik". By collecting within itself the creations of the greatest Bulgarian minds, expressing their ideological searches, aspirations, disputes, struggles, the Bulgarian periodical press is also the most reliable witness to our past. If taken entirely as a completed work, it gives a broad, complete and detailed picture of public life in Bulgaria. It goes without saying that the press is a lasting source for scientific research of all kinds. The scientist, having looked to the past, even with the aim of speaking about the present or the future, approaches the periodicals of the past years as a reliable assistant.

Among the many names of more or less famous authors about whom Kiril Hristov wrote, the name of Lyubomir Bobevski is also found. I was curious to know what Kiril Hristov could write about this once noisy author of numerous patriotic poems and marches, the most popular of which was "O Dobrudzhanski krai", and I looked for the magazine in which the article about him was printed.
