география

The findings presented here are results of a more general research of the “geography” of Svoboda/Nezavisimost Newspaper (1869–1874). The texts under analysis were not only written, but they were also published on the pages of a periodical. Nevertheless these texts are in close relation to the sphere of imagining and the imagined. The topic of imagined texts is more or less inspired by the thesis about the nation as an imagined community. So the problem of the imagined geography calls for a discussion on the way in which certain texts perform an important function in the process of imagining the community, in our case – imagining the Bulgarian nation.
