Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with the personal strategies employed in the creation of autoanthological lyrical works during the second decade of the 21st century. The focus is on several dominant contemporary Bulgarian poets who made their debut in the 1960s and the 1970s. Proposed here is a typological perspective that could possibly be used in future historical conceptualizations of the literature of that period from the perspective of the Transition. The observations offered in the paper are based on the belief that lyrical autoanthologies represent a gesture of conserving and passing down through time of a specific and enduring creative memory. Thus they can be studied both within the perimeter of the author’s personal field and more generally, in the context of the Bulgarian Transition as a literary historical period.
