The image of Simeon the Great in Bulgarian sources, both contemporary to his reign and written only a little later, seems rather one-sided and lacking significant details. The tsar is depicted as an outstanding, mighty monarch, deeply pious and well oriented in the Bible, as well as in the works of the patristic authorities (mainly Athanasius, Basil the Great and John Chrysostom), an avid reader and a lover of books. Simeon is thus a truly Christian ruler, a follower of peaceful policies, and a warrior only in the face of aggression. The foundations of his strength are supposed to lie in God’s protection. Such a depiction is far from the one preserved in the Byzantine literature, dominated by Simeon’s military activity. The paper is supplemented by the Polish translation of the Praise to Tsar Simeon (by Zofia Brzozowska) with the Old Church Slavonic original (post K. Kuev’s edition).

The article refers to the repeatedly discussed subject of the rebellion staged by Michael, the son of Simeon I of Bulgaria, against Peter his (?)step-brother. The author of the study has re-analysed sources on the uprising for the motives behind the conspiracy and its scope. The conspiracy has been concluded to have primarily been an aspect of the struggle for power amongst the successors of Simeon.

The Tale of the Iron Cross does not form a primary source for the studies on history of the Bulgaro-Hungarian conflict 894-896. However, it deepens our knowledge on its memory in the Bulgarian society as it presents, to a certain degree, the wiews of the medieval Bulgarians ona war as a notion. The paper is supplemented by the Polish translation of the fragments of the Tale of the Iron Cross (by Jan M. Wolski) with the Old Church Slavonic original.

This publication is devoted to the church architecture in Southwestern Bulgaria (now Blagoevgrad region) during the First Bulgarian Tsardom, in the period from the end of the 9th to the beginning of the 11th century. From the second half of the 9th century (specifically from 864) the territories of the region under consideration officially entered the borders of the medieval Bulgarian state, which coincided with the conversion to Christianity in Bulgaria (865). The studied region covers the valleys of the rivers of Struma (Middle Struma) and Mesta (Upper and Middle Mesta), which were part of the southwestern borders of the Bulgarian state in the Middle Ages. At present, three churches can be attributed to this period, all excavated through regular archaeological excavations. These are the Basilica of St. Nicholas in the town of Melnik, the single-nave church in the area of Shipotsko at the town of Bansko and the three-conchal church at the village of Kulata, Petrich municipality. In terms of their functional characteristics, these churches include an episcopal (or parish) church (“St. Nicholas” in Melnik), a cemetery church (the church in the area of Shipotsko near the town of Bansko) and a monastery church (the church at the village of Kulata). Characteristic for the first two is their construction on older cult sites – on an ancient sanctuary and an early Christian church (the church “St. Nicholas” in Melnik) and on an early Christian temple (the church in the area of Shipotsko, at the town of Bansko). The small number of excavated church buildings from the First Bulgarian Tsardom is also typical for the rest of the Bulgarian lands. Although the examples from the region are few, they show that almost all major architectural types are found here.
