Bulgarian "Golden Book of Songs"
to Go on Display at
University of Paris


Sofia, February 14 (BTA) - A Bulgarian "Golden Book of Songs" will go on display at the University of Paris. The handmade book featuring excerpts from works by Hristo Botev, Peyo Yavorov, Nikola Vaptsarov, Georgi S. Rakovski and Vassil Levski, among others, was press-launched at BTA on Monday.

The edition was conceived and compiled by Niton publishing house owner Nikolai Tonchev, journalist and historian Ivan Trenev, and economist and sociologist Evgenii Sachev.

The idea was borrowed from an early-20th-century international compilation published on the initiative of the University of Paris, where it is kept nowadays. It presents some of the most famous philosophers, playwrights, writers and poets from all over the world, including Shakespeare, Verlaine, Baudelaire, Tolstoy and Pushkin. Bulgaria's Hristo Botev is among them. The texts are written in gold letters in French and Latin.

The Bulgarian version can be expanded to include other renowned poets and writers. MY/VE
