The purpose I pursue with this book is to compare the information that has come down to us from old writers and to draw some conclusions about the people who spread the Bulgarian state to the Balkans, without resorting to the numerous contemporary books that I have read and that fill my library. I do this not out of disrespect for the tremendous work of contemporary Bulgarian writers and historians, but out of a desire to make an independent assessment of events and to draw my own conclusions about the relationship and sequence of events and their consequences by reading only older authors.
I hope the book will find a place in the library of an educated and unbiased Bulgarian, to serve him as a reference book of information from old authors that have come down to us, about various events in European history. It can also be a valuable reference for schoolchildren, students, researchers, and teachers.
Bulgarian History: up to the 12th century through the view of the ancient authors, by Nikolay Ivanov Kolev, offers a meticulous study of the early Bulgarian state and its role in Balkan history, based solely on ancient sources. The author emphasizes the importance of primary accounts, allowing the readers to explore the formation and expansion of Bulgaria through the eyes of those who lived closer to the events. By excluding contemporary interpretations, the book presents a fresh perspective that encourages an independent understanding of historical facts and their interconnections.
The book meticulously examines the political, social, and military developments in Bulgaria up to the 12th century, drawing from Byzantine, Arab, and Western chroniclers. Kolev highlights the origins, migration patterns, and cultural influence of the Bulgarian people, offering a nuanced analysis that contrasts with modern historical narratives. Each chapter provides a clear synthesis of the surviving sources, enabling the reader to trace the chronology of events and the complex relations between Bulgaria and its neighbors in the Balkan Peninsula.
By focusing on ancient authors, Kolev delivers a scholarly yet accessible work that serves as a reference point for researchers, students, and teachers. The book enriches the understanding of European medieval history, emphasizing the unique position of Bulgaria in the regional and cultural context of the time. It is not only an academic resource, but also a guide for those seeking to appreciate the independent narrative of Bulgaria’s early history without the influence of modern interpretations.
This work stands out for its methodical approach, its faithfulness to primary sources, and its dedicated focus on Bulgarian heritage. Kolev provides a coherent and detailed overview of the formation, consolidation, and expansion of the Bulgarian state, making it an essential companion for anyone interested in medieval Balkan history. The book's clarity, depth, and reliance on ancient accounts make it a valuable addition to any library devoted to historical scholarship.
