Abstract

The article depicts the scientific path of the corresponding member of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, Professor Todor Boiadzhiev, who, on 11 November 2021, celebrated his 90th birthday. His academic life is mostly associated with Sofia University, “St Kliment Ohridski”. The major publications in dialectology, phonetics, grammar studies, lexicology, and stylistics by T. Boiadzhiev are outlined. Of special value are his books on the grammar of the Thracian dialects and his dialectal dictionaries. “The Ideographic Dialectal Dictionary of the Bulgarian Language”, which was compiled by T. Boiadzhiev with a team of Bulgarian linguists, was a monumental project of great significance. He authored several classical textbooks on the phonetics, morphology, stylistics, and lexicology of the Bulgarian language and many workbooks for school education. A prominent scholar, he gives his time and effort to academic and organizational activities, while also working to popularize science. T. Boiadzhiev is a gifted lecturer, teaching at the universities of Sofia, Veliko Tarnovo, Plovdiv, Burgas, and Lomonosov Moscow State University, amongst others, thus educating his successors in Bulgarian linguistics.
