Summary/Abstract: A group of Bulgarian high-school students in Odessa (Nayden Gerov, Dobri Chintulov, et al.) made their first steps in literature and thus initiated the new Bulgarian poetry in the 1840s. Other men of letter studied here in the following decades; this town had a specific presence in Vasil Drumev’s novel Student and Benefactors; from here Svetoslav Milarov send long articles to the newspaper Pravo (Law) in Istanbul. Later, during the government of Stefan Stambolov, a new emigrant group was formed for a short period in this town on the shore of the Black Sea; Ivan Vazov participated in it, and here he started writing his famous novel Under the Yoke. This paper draws attention to the way how Bulgarians in Odesa saw this town, to what extent they were interested in Ukrainian culture, and how this interest developed over time.
