In the last two decades bulgarian literary scholars make a lot of new researches focused on Botev’s poetry works. The main aim of the new analysis is the re-reading and re-interpretation of Botev’s poetic legacy. Referring to the findings of the bulgarian literary studies this article undertake the task to describe the paradigm of bulgarian revival poetry, considering Botev’s lyrical achievements as representative of this literary period. Botev is inspired from the wealth of folk traditions, he is proving his own mastery in transposition of folk designs into the new bulgarian poetry. Thematically much of the lines illustrates the pessimistic vision of the oppressed nation, which remain for several centuries under the influence of the turkish domination. The poetic imagination of tormented mother-country Bulgaria is precisely related to this concept. In this context, the poet considers as a duty to promote the patriotic idea, he becomes a teacher of his own generation, and uses poetic texts to express his social philosophy. A lirycal subject repeatedly identifies himself with the figure of a haiduk – brave fighter, rebel and revolutionary - explaining his own existence in the messianic terms. Botev’s poetry gives many original impulses in shaping the modern bulgarian poetry.
