Abstract
The present text examines the historical-biographical and ideological connection with Bulgaria of the Polish Bulgarianist and Slavist Wanda Smohovska-Petrova, who emigrated to Bulgaria at the beginning of the Second World War. In her scientific monographs, the topic of Polish-Bulgarian relations in the second half of the 19th century is traced. Considered: the contributing moments in her monographs on Polish émigré writers Zygmunt Miłkowski (Teodor Tomasz Jeż) and Michal Tchaikovsky (Sadyk Pasza), in her book on Neophyte Bozveli and the Polish participation in the struggle for an independent Bulgarian church, her original concept about the specifics of the Bulgarian national revival. The importance of her dual cultural identity is emphasized. The text also refers to publications by Wanda Smohowska’s daughter, the Polish journalist Alina Petrova-Wasilewicz. An interview with her is attached.
