Two Activists in the Struggle for an Independent Bulgarian Church: What Are They Actually Saying? (Nikola Sapunov and Ivan Naydenov) This paper uncovers a slightly different picture of the struggle for an independent Bulgarian Church and deals with the texts of two of its participants: the memoir and diary of Nikola Sapunov (1815–1861) and the correspondence of and some other texts by Ivan Naydenov (1834–1910). Apart from patriotism, martyrdom and political plans, which are also often problematized, there are also personal partialities, hostilities, ambitions, and financial motives. For many activists, the authority of the Ottoman Sultan (who was also a Caliph, the religious leader of all Muslims) and keeping his firman in force were very important. The confessional mobility within Christianity characterized the life of Sapunov and some other activists generated tensions and polemics, but not clashes on a great scale. The relations with foreign factors, primarily Russia, were also important. They were complicated and included not only different forms of interferences, but also deliberate demands for such an intervention and efforts to provoke it and follow foreign models, mostly the Greek one.

(Nikoła Sapunow i Iwan Najdenow) Artykuł jest poświęcony tekstom dwóch uczestników walki o niezależny Kościół bułgarski – wspomnieniom i pamiętnikowi Nikoły Sapunowa (1815–1861) oraz korespondencji i innym pismom Iwana Najdenowa (1834–1910) – i kreśli nieco odmienny obraz dobrze znanych wydarzeń. Oprócz patriotyzmu, męczeństwa i planów politycznych, często kontrowersyjnych, ujawniają się w nich także osobiste namiętności, wzajemne animozje, ambicje i motywacje finansowe. Dla znacznej części działaczy bardzo ważny był autorytet sułtana osmańskiego (który był kalifem, przywódcą religijnym wszystkich muzułmanów), a także – zachowanie w mocy jego firmanu. Mobilność wyznaniowa w ramach religii chrześcijańskiej, jaka charakteryzowała życie Sapunowa i niektórych innych działaczy, wywoływała napięcia i polemiki, lecz nie wielkie starcia ideologiczne. Relacje z zagranicą, przede wszystkim z Rosją, były złożone i nie wynikało to tylko z faktu podejmowania przez siły z zewnątrz konkretnych interwencji, lecz również ze świadomego ich poszukiwania czy wręcz prowokowania ze strony bułgarskiej, a także z chęci naśladowania obcych wzorów, zwłaszcza greckich.

Tsar Peter was a ruler who was active in the sphere of church policy, and is pictured to have been a deep believer himself. He is credited with the fact of granting the title of patriarch to the Bulgarian archbishop, which most probably occurred under the framework of the agreement of 927 (?933/934). The act sym­bolically completed the process of acquiring full maturity and independence by the Church of Bulgaria. Peter, as the first Bulgarian ruler, had to face a serious problem of heresy. Be­ing fully aware of responsibility for orthodoxy of his subjects’ creed, he was de­termined enough to take precautions in order to stifle the development of the Bo­gomil heresy. However, his actual actions (except for his consulting the patriarch) and their results are impossible to pinpoint. On the other hand, it should be stressed that, during the rule of tsar Peter, the Bulgarian monasticism lived through a period of considerable development. The tsar contributed to that progress, though, unfortunately, details of the phenomenon are impossible to determine. Peter himself became a monk before his death, and subsequently his personal worship evolved around his involvement in the monas­tic movement.
