Proshek Brothers: Family Chronicle

Summary/Abstract: This text is the family chronicle of the Proshek brothers, a Czech family with a prominent role in the development of the Bulgarian economy after 1878. The text has been written by their direct descendant – grandson of Irzhi Proshek. Their family history is presented, as well as their first contacts with the Bulgarians and their further development in liberated Bulgaria. Some of their economic initiatives are described in detail (in the construction area, the infrastructure development, the brewing etc.); their activities in the community are being described. As far as the activities of the Proshek brothers are of importance to the early Bulgarian economic modernization, the text has its value not only as a family history, but also as a source about the economy history of the country.
