Abstract
With the beginning of democratic changes in Bulgarian historical science faced the problem of reconsideration of many accepted assertions and interpretations concerning the Russo-Turkish war of 1877-1878 and the liberation of Bulgaria from the Ottoman rule. Historical revisionism was presented with exceptional persistence, often aggression, on the pages of journalistic essays. The following paper examines modern trends in interpreting the events that happened 140 years ago and explores the existing myths and conditions facilitating their spreading. The main academic works on the subject published in the last 30 years, as well as journalistic popular works and publications in mass media are analysed by the author.
