Founded as a Milesian apoikia in the second quarter of the 6th century BC, the city has left necropoleis which are the principal source for the social organization, burial customs and beliefs of the civic community and for its relations with the Thracians within and beyond the polis. The study rests on a critical review of the publications from 1909 to 2024 and argues three theses: that the necropolis system had a two-component character reflecting the coexistence of Greeks and Thracians in the city and its territory; that neither the burial mound nor cremation can serve on its own as an ethnic marker, the grave inventory considered as a whole being the only reliable indicator; and that the rich early Hellenistic tumular complexes belonged not to newcomers but to the aristocracy of the polis itself. The topographical analysis outlines the necropolis zones along the roads leaving the city; inhumation oriented north–south prevails decisively over cremation, while the near-obligatory clay lamp and the exceptional concentration of gold jewellery distinguish Odessos from the neighbouring colonies. The main contribution consists of a critical catalogue of 29 necropolis sites with their sources and of two thematic maps produced in QGIS, conceived as an open and verifiable basis for further research.Key words: Odessos, Early Hellenistic necropoleis, burial rites, tumuli, funerary architecture, grave goods, Heros Karabazmos, catalogue of sites, GIS mapping (QGIS). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.0/it/ http://litermedia.com/index.php?ind=downloads&op=entry_view&iden=421 http://litermedia.com/index.php?ind=downloads&op=entry_view&iden=421 Wed, 26 Aug 2026 10:47:43 GMT () Автор: Сияна АтанасоваШуменски университет „Епископ Константин Преславски”специалност Връзки с общественосттаОКС бакалавърНаучен ръководител:гл. ас. д-р Емилия ЕнчеваРецензент:проф. д-р Добромир ДобревШуменски университет „Епископ Константин Преславски“Катедра по журналистика и масови комуникации 2026=============================Abstract: The text examines the role of public relations and digital communication in building and maintaining the image of local government. The focus is on the Asparuhovo district - Varna Municipality, as a specific example of interaction between the district administration, citizens, media, local communities and public organizations. The analysis traces the theoretical foundations of PR in the public sector, the features of the digital image, the communication channels used, the importance of social networks, public initiatives, event management and anti-crisis communication. The article also presents the results of the survey conducted within the framework of the thesis among 30 representatives of the district and an interview with the mayor of the Asparuhovo district Ivaylo Marinov. The results show a relatively positive attitude towards the digital presence of the district, but at the same time outline the need for more systematic feedback, higher activity in social networks and wider inclusion of citizens in the processes of local government. On this basis, practical recommendations are formulated for improving PR activities and for more effective use of digital tools.

The evolution of public relations is presented as a shift from managing information flows toward managing relationships, emphasizing dialogue, transparency, trust, and long-term interaction with publics. Particular attention is given to digitalization and social media, which have transformed audiences from passive recipients into active participants. Algorithms, personalization, and platform-based communication create new opportunities for reaching specific publics while also introducing challenges such as information bubbles, misinformation, algorithmic bias, and reduced control over message distribution. The report also examines the development of artificial intelligence from early theoretical concepts to machine learning, large language models, and generative AI. It argues that AI increasingly influences how PR professionals search for information, generate ideas, formulate messages, adapt content, and perform communication tasks. At the same time, hallucinations, bias, copyright issues, data protection, and misinformation highlight the need for human verification and professional oversight.The article concludes that AI should not replace PR professionals but complement their expertise.

The research explores the relationship between theological thought, artistic representation, and spiritual experience within the Orthodox Christian tradition. Particular attention is devoted to the influence of Byzantine artistic models and the development of distinctive Bulgarian iconographic practices, especially within the cultural milieu of the Tarnovo Artistic School.The article argues that medieval Bulgarian religious imagery functioned not merely as a visual representation of sacred figures but as a theological medium through which the transcendent and ineffable nature of the divine could be contemplated. Drawing upon the principles of apophatic theology, the study analyzes how iconographic conventions, symbolic forms, compositional structures, and the treatment of light contributed to the expression of realities that surpass sensory perception and rational understanding.Special emphasis is placed on the connection between Hesychasm and artistic production in late medieval Bulgaria.The spread of Hesychast spirituality encouraged a visual language characterized by contemplative stillness, spiritual luminosity, and the transformation of material forms into vehicles of divine presence. Through selected examples of monumental painting, mural decoration, and iconography, the article demonstrates how Bulgarian artists adapted inherited Byzantine models while developing distinctive aesthetic solutions that reflected local theological and cultural traditions.The findings reveal that apophatic visuality constitutes a fundamental interpretative framework for understanding Bulgarian medieval religious art. Rather than aiming at naturalistic representation, these works sought to direct the viewer beyond the visible image toward mystical participation in divine reality. Consequently, Bulgarian religious painting and iconography of the thirteenth to fifteenth centuries emerge as significant expressions of Orthodox spirituality and as enduring testimonies to the synthesis of theology, art, and cultural identity.Keywords: apophatic visuality, Bulgarian medieval art, iconography, religious painting, Hesychasm, Orthodox theology, Tarnovo Artistic School, Byzantine tradition. http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.0/it/ http://litermedia.com/index.php?ind=downloads&op=entry_view&iden=418 http://litermedia.com/index.php?ind=downloads&op=entry_view&iden=418 Sun, 05 Jul 2026 21:01:09 GMT () Автор: Веселина ЙонковаШуменски университет „Епископ Константин Преславски”специалност АрхеологияОКС магистърНаучен ръководител:проф. д.и.н.

Based on archaeological, architectural, and art-historical evidence from Odessos, Marcianopolis, Zaldapa, Djanavara, Palmatis, Cape St. Athanasius near Byala, and the recently investigated basilica near the village of Zvezdica, the article explores the interaction between imperial artistic models and local building traditions. Particular attention is paid to the distribution of Proconnesian and Docimian marble, the activities of local workshops, the symbolic language of stone decoration, and the evidence for technological transfer revealed through stonecutters’ and assembly marks. The study demonstrates that Northeastern Bulgaria occupied an active position within the cultural, economic, and religious networks of the Early Byzantine world. The paper also emphasizes the importance of preserving and presenting archaeological heritage as a means of safeguarding and transmitting historical memory to future generations.Keywords: Early Christianity; Early Christian basilicas; architectural sculpture; Proconnesian marble; Palmatis; Cape St. Athanasius (Byala); Northeastern Bulgaria; Early Byzantium. http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.0/it/ http://litermedia.com/index.php?ind=downloads&op=entry_view&iden=416 http://litermedia.com/index.php?ind=downloads&op=entry_view&iden=416 Thu, 25 Jun 2026 04:03:56 GMT () Автор: Есра ИсметШуменски университет „Епископ Константин Преславски“Специалност: История и ГеографияБакалавърНаучен ръководител: гл. ас. д-р Данаил ПетровРецензент: проф. дин Красимир КръстевШуменски университет „Епископ Константин Преславски“Катедра История и археология2026=============================Abstract: During the Hellenistic period, a well-defined road network emerged within AncientThrace. This system aligned with the valleys of major rivers, including the Danube. A key component of this network was the Coastal Road, which traversed the Bulgarian Black Sea littoral and interconnected the Greek colonies established in the region. Knowledge regarding this route is derived from the accounts of ancient authors (such as Herodotus and Jordanes), epigraphic evidence, numismatic data, and various other archaeological monuments.Key words: road network, creek colony, Herodotus, Calamis sculpture, Odessa, The Seaside road, ancient roads http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.0/it/ http://litermedia.com/index.php?ind=downloads&op=entry_view&iden=415 http://litermedia.com/index.php?ind=downloads&op=entry_view&iden=415 Fri, 12 Jun 2026 11:10:17 GMT () Автор: Иван ПавловСпециалност: ИсторияБакалавърНаучен ръководител: доц. д-р А.

The first part provides a historical overview of the rise of the Yakuza, focusing on its links with the bakuto and tekiya groups, social marginalization, and cultural legitimation through elements of the samurai tradition. The second part traces the development of the Japanese model of control, which combines legal, administrative, economic, and cultural mechanisms. Particular attention is given to the relationship between organized crime, the state, politics, and society across different historical periods. The aim of this article is to examine the distinctive features of Japan’s approach to limiting organized crime, as well as its possibilities and limitations in the contemporary context.Keywords: organized crime, Yakuza, Japan, state control, bakuto, tekiya, social marginalization, samurai tradition, cultural legitimation, administrative mechanisms, economic isolation, social pressure. http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.0/it/ http://litermedia.com/index.php?ind=downloads&op=entry_view&iden=413 http://litermedia.com/index.php?ind=downloads&op=entry_view&iden=413 Tue, 28 Apr 2026 07:43:08 GMT () Автор: Красимира ЧепишеваБългарската образователна система днес е поле на всеобхватни и различни теоретични постановки, насочени към визията й, на теоретични модели, предназначени за овладяване на знания и умения, на многообразни изследвания, свързани с иновирането и актуализирането й.Влияние върху теоретичните постановки, модели и изследвания оказват комуникативните тенденции в родноезиковото обучениe.

The preliminary analysis has shown that so far few studies have been dedicated to reveal whether fiction texts could be translated by machine translation. Our investigation aims to compare the advantages and drawbacks of AI, namely ChatGPT5, versus the human translation of a fiction book. The results demonstrate how AI’s upgrade can help the translation industry but, in many cases, cannot replace the human touch in a fiction text.This research could be of interest to researchers of Translation Studies and students, especially those exploring AI’s impact on literary translation, academic institutions, which can integrate the findings into their curricula focused on emerging digital tools and human-AI collaboration models, and last but not least translation associations that are engaged actively with questions of AI in literature.Svetlana NedelchevaNatural vs. Artificial Intelligence in Translating Stylistic Flair and Culture Specifics of Fiction Texts: A case study of Georgi Gospodinov’s Time ShelterНаучен редактор: Десислава Чешмеджиева-СтойчеваРецензенти: Румяна ТодороваИвелина СавоваУниверситетско издателство „Епископ Константин Преславски”Шумен, 2025 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.0/it/ http://litermedia.com/index.php?ind=downloads&op=entry_view&iden=411 http://litermedia.com/index.php?ind=downloads&op=entry_view&iden=411 Fri, 13 Mar 2026 11:27:28 GMT () Автор: Надка НиколоваПо своето съдържание предложеното ръководство е подходящо за всеки, който държи да се изразява правилно в устна или писмена форма пред публика, т.е. да владее правилата на образцовия изказ в речевата комуникация.
