Prof. Mihail Nedelchev, professor and researcher in theory and history of literature at New Bulgarian University in Sofia, and author and editor of studies on poet Atanas Dalchev, Sunday attended the unveiling of a memorial plaque to the poet and his brother Lyubomir Dalchev in their hometown of Thessaloniki. In his speech, Prof. Nedelchev said that the memory of Atanas Dalchev has always been alive.

The plaque is a joint initiative of the Bulgarian News Agency and the Consulate General of Bulgaria in Thessaloniki, and is located in the courtyard of the Consulate building.

Prof. Nedelchev described Atanas Dalchev as a personality he did not dare to approach because of the great respect he had for him. 

"It is wonderful that today in Thessaloniki this plaque brings us together. It is wonderful that we are awakening the memory of these two great Bulgarians. They lived in Thessaloniki, they went to Constantinople. I am very happy to be present today at this celebration," said Prof. Nedelchev. 

Among those present at the event were also: BTA Director General Kiril Valchev, Anton Markov, Consul General of Bulgaria in Thessaloniki; Prof. Huseyin Mevsim, professor of Bulgarian language and literature at Ankara University and author of the book Atanas Dalchev in Thessaloniki and Istanbul; Boyko Vassilev, journalist and presenter on Bulgarian National Television; Assoc. Prof. Georgi Lozanov, Editor-in-Chief of LIK magazine; and Iriney Konstantinov, actor with recordings of Atanas Dalchev's poems and Sofia Theatre Director. 

During the event, the June issue of the Bulgarian News Agency's LIK magazine, dedicated to Atanas Dalchev's 120th birth anniversary, was also presented.
