(The) Literary History of Today’s Literature between Impossible Possibilities and Possible Impossibilities

Noemi Stoichkova

The text examines the second volume of “Bulgarian Literature in the XXI Century (2000–2020)”, situating it through the differences of Milena Kirova’s literary-historical discourse, but also taking into account its constant characteristics. The starting point for the comparability of the diptych is the different temporal distance of the author to the literary objects – in the first part between 20 and 30 years, in the second part approximately 10 – 12.

Keywords: “Bulgarian Literature in the 21st Century (2000–2020)”; differences and similarities in the historiographical approaches of M. Kirova
