FROM THE NEWSPAPER SUPPLEMENT TO THE BOOK: RETRIEVED FROM THE READY-TO-PRINT BOOK “MY BURGAS – REPORTS” BY ATANAS DZHAVKOV (1944–1946)

Abstract

The paper examines the transition between the medium of literature and the newspaper and vice versa based on the editorial model of literary supplements in the newspaper “Burgaski Phar” (Burgas Lighthouse) and its successor “Naroden Phar” (People’s Lighthouse) from the period 1937– 1946. The process can be traced in the materials which were offered by the young reporter Atanas Dzhavkov. Five pieces from 1944 and 1946 come out with an announcement that they are from the ready-to-be-book My Burgas – Reports. After 1946, the author would become a well-known professional writer under the pseudonym Boris Aprilov. The publication is accompanied by the text The New City from the planned edition, prepared for printing with the assistance of students Pavlina Zhekova, Daniela Maneva and Nedelina Gyocheva (ULSIT).
