Братя Миладинови – призвание, съдба и подвиг
The Miladinov Brothers – vocation, fate and feat

Summary/Abstract: The article outlines the main directions in the activity of the Miladinov Brothers. Their manifestations in the context of the general cultural orientation of the Bulgarian society from the first half of the 19th century are traced. The author points out the importance of the then excellent education of Dimitar and Konstantin, which gives them the opportunity to express themselves as awakeners of the people and compilers of the most important collection of Bulgarian folk songs from the era of the Revival. Constantine‘s connections with Bulgarian students and the Bulgarian literary circle in Moscow, as well as the search for support from Russian Slavists for the publication of the collection in Russia, are discussed in detail.
