Abstract
The article examines the construction of memory in the memoir world of Dora Gabe and the presence of Peyo Yavorov in it. The text follows the chronology of the poetess' memoirs and analyses three narratives about Peyo Yavorov – the “first teacher”, the man whom she knows and understands and lastly the lost Yavorov. The “first teacher” narrative occupies a central place in Dora Gabe's memoirs of the poet in the 1920s and 1930s and convincingly brings forward the figure of Dora Gabe herself – these texts outline the image of the poetess, building the foundations of her own biography. The other two narratives are most pronounced in Dora Gabe's texts in the 1950s, and through them the poetess became involved in the process of acquitting and rehabilitating Peyo Yavorov in the period after 1944.
