Образи на времето във възрожденската поезия
Time Imagery in Bulgarian Revival-Period Poetry

Summary/Abstract: This paper traces the temporal markers (year, day, hour, minute, moment) in Bulgarian Revival-period poetry. In addition, it zooms into the lyrical interpretations of time as the legacy of ancient attitudes and images (in terms of parallels with Greco-Roman mythology and with the Bible). Personal perceptions of time are linked to the specificity of historical events and their meaning; time is illustrated with the distinct ages of human beings and with the different seasons; it is also seen as a marker of the dynamics of the present.
