Summary/Abstract: This article is a comment on the bibliography of literary translations from Bulgarian to Polish in 2014. The analysis uses the concept of field by the French sociologist, Pierre Bourdieu. According to Bourdieu’s theory cultural production depends on particular social actors and institutions. Adapting the theory to the situation of translated literature, the author of the article analyses all the circumstances of publishing Bulgarian literature in Poland in 2014, inter alia — publishers, authors, translators, critics, as well as the official cultural policy of Bulgaria.
