Summary/Abstract: The article focuses on the projections of mass ideologies in the 1940s in periodicals for children and adolescents. The spirit of the time reflected in literary plots is analyzed: cult to action, not knowledge, joy of the national unification of the Bulgarians, readiness for self-sacrifice. The ideas of education of the Bulgarian youth, developed in the book of Naiden Sheitanov and Naiden Pamukchiev "The Great Bulgarian Youth" and their popularization in the periodicals for children and adolescents are compared. The behavior of Bulgarian writers who were equally well adapted to the ideology of Great Bulgarian nationalism and the proletarian internationalism that followed it after 1944 is commented. The author pays attention to the socio-cultural contexts in which the ideologies for young people and virgins in Bulgaria are developed.
