Raina Katsarova – Enthusiastic, Courageous, Unique

Summary/Abstract: In the memoirs of Assen Alexandrov - a friend of Raina Katsarova and her family for many years, and of Geo Kukudov - the younger of her two sons, Raina Katsarova was: “an enthusiastic person”, “always above the average level of mood”, with “an air of lightness, gaiety, informality”, “terrific physical agility”, “permanently enthusiastic”, “she made no bones to anybody”, “she had a good word for everybody, under­ standing of all, she was able to communicate with all people”, “an exceptional person with a unique and forceful spirit... a Renaissance spirit ... she was conscious ... she had a mission”, “a deeply religious person”, “she gave birth to my brother and me with 20 years difference, which is also a heroic deed”, “she was a great person in all respects”. The same warm feelings are visible from the unpublished letter of Binka Vazova, an artist, a friend of hers, who accompanied her on location many times, illustrator of her book “Koledarski pesni” (Sofia, 1934). The letter was written on 12th of October 1984, Sofia and was sent later to Raina Katsarova’s son.
