Notes on the Problem of the Western European Influences on the Formation of Zahari Stoyanov as a Historian and a Humanist %J Annual of the Faculty of History of ¡±St. Cyril and St. Methodius¡± University of Veliko Tarnovo %D 2017 %X The functionaries in the political and cultural life during the epoch of Bulgarian Revival learned a lot and adopted the Western European achievements in every field of knowledge and culture. It was this process of active influence which determined Zahari Stoyanov¡¯s adoption of the German poet Heinrich Heine¡¯s Ideas. In the article an attempt was made to find out the available data ¨C including indirect ones ¨C evidencing such an influence. Zahari Stoyanov had been familiar in some degree with Heinrich Heine¡¯s works, and amongst the most famous confirmation of this knowledge is the citations of Heine¡¯s words in the introduction of ¡°Notes on the Bulgarian Uprisings¡± [¡°§©§Ñ§á§Ú§ã§Ü§Ú §á§à §Ò§ì§Ý§Ô§Ñ§â§ã§Ü§Ú§ä§Ö §Ó§ì§ã§ä§Ñ§ß§Ú§ñ¡±]. The study permits to find out that the both authors expressed an intensified awareness of history and that the Zahari Stoyanov¡¯s awareness of history, regardless of these influences, had his own specificity.
