Мемоари и съвременност
Memoirs and modernity

Summary/Abstract: The article aims to deepen the knowledge of contemporary Bulgarian memoirs. In its theoretical terms, this literature is examined in view of its different genre definitions, narrative features and movement between documentary and fictional. Special attention is paid to the problem of subjectivism and its extreme manifestations leading to false statements. Exploring the history of literature, the paper focuses on the memories of the “anti-fascist struggles” and, above all, the partisan movement in Bulgaria, where the ideological tendenciousness of the narrative and the moral aspects of fiction and editorial processing are analyzed. The memoirs, which went out of print after the fall of the totalitarian regime, are presented in a big touch in view of the main thematic circles, ideological directions and author's presences.
