Bulgarian-Greek relations from the mid-1800s to the mid-1900s
Yura Konstantinova argues that even during the period of the sharpest confrontation between Bulgarians and Greeks—from the mid-nineteenth to the mid-twentieth century—their mutual perceptions were not purely hostile but marked by ambivalence. Although political conflicts strongly shaped public attitudes, some Bulgarian and Greek intellectuals were able to move beyond dominant political narratives. The study examines the views of Bulgarian scholars, artists, and diplomats whose perspectives often differed from the propaganda imposed for political reasons. The book highlights the potential role of intellectuals in fostering understanding between nations often seen as historical adversaries.
