“Starobulgarska Literatura” (“Medieval Bulgarian Literature”) is a specialized peer-reviewed journal dedicated to medieval Bulgarian literature and culture and their Byzantine and European contexts. Since Medieval Bulgarian literature constitutes an important segment of the European cultural heritage, our journal is addressed to an international audience and highlights the work of both Bulgarian and foreign scholars. The journal publishes original research in the fields of literary and interdisciplinary studies of medieval Slavic literatures, as well as editions of unpublished old Slavic literary works and their newly-discovered copies, critical reviews, surveys, information on national and international medievalist events, and current bibliography.

“Starobulgarska Literatura” is published annually – two issues in a single volume. Contributions are accepted in Bulgarian, Russian, English, and German, and all articles are accompanied by abstracts in English.

The journal is published by the Institute for Literature at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. 

Publication is supported through competitive funding provided by the National Science Fund of the Bulgarian Ministry of Education and Science.
