Translator Dimitar Glagoev who eventually in 1909-10 made the first complete translation was the founder and leader of the Bulgarian Worker's Social Democratic Party became or Narrow Socialists or Tesniaki became the the first Marxist propangandist in Bulgaria. The present publication is presumably printed in very low number and are of the utmost scarcity; OCLC locate no institutional holdings We know of one copy in the SS. Cyril and Methodius National Library Bulgaria and no copy has been up for auction the past 50 years.<br><br>Extradited in 1885 by the Russian government Blagoev returned to Bulgaria settled in Sofia and began to propagate socialist ideas. In July 1891 on the initiative of Blagoev the social democratic circles of Tarnovo Gabrovo Sliven Stara Zagora Kazanluk and other cities united to form the Bulgarian Social Democratic Party BSDP. The Marxist nucleus of the BSDP was opposed by a group who were essentially opposed to making the social democratic movement into a party. In 1893 this group led by Yanko Sakazov founded a reformist organization the Bulgarian Social Democratic Union. In 1894 Blagoev's supporters agreed to unite with the Unionists in the interests of working class unity and took the name Bulgarian Social Democratic Workers Party. Blagoev founder and became the leader of its left wing which split from the BSDWP in 1903 to found the Bulgarian Social Democratic Workers' Party Narrow Socialists. Under his guidance the foundations of the class trade-union movement was laid in 1904. <br>Blagoev was also a prominent proponent of ideas for the establishment of a Balkan Federation leading the Narrow Socialists into the Communist International in 1919 where the party changed its name to the Bulgarian Communist Party. However during this period Blagoev and the party as a whole did not completely adopt Bolshevik's positions on the basic questions. This determined the party's policies during the Vladaya Soldiers' Rebellion of 1918 and the military coup of 9 June 1923 when the party adopted a position of neutrality. He was also an opponent of the failed September Uprising and thought that there were no ripe conditions for a revolution in Bulgaria yet.<br>From 1897 to 1923 Blagoev directed the publication of the party's theoretical organ the journal "Novo Vreme" which published more than 500 of his articles. <br><br>The first complete Bulgarian translation were published in 1909/1910. unknown‎

A more lengthy translation was made in 1909 - 1911 but to this day a full Swedish translation has not been made.<br><br>Despite the comparatively late translation into Swedish it still had a profound influence not on economists since they were well aware of the original work in English but upon politics and public opinion in general: <br>"There are few things more striking to the modem student of the history of ideas in Sweden than the negative phenomenon that Sweden was almost entirely uninfluenced by this fact and thus remained almost unaffected by English economic thought during a period when its superiority was most evident. As far as I am acquainted with the Swedish economic discussion and our popular economic literature of the 1860's and 1870's there is almost no trace of any influence from English writers. .Of Adam Smith we have still only one abbreviated translation of his famous work and that was published as late as during this century; and as far as I know nothing of Ricardo's or Malthus' exists in Swedish nor do any of the major economic works of J.S.

‎MICHEL CHRISTIAN; TRANSLATION BY CHRIS MILLER‎

‎The Acadmie Royale De Peinture Et De Sculpture: The Birth Of The French School 1648-1793‎

‎Getty Research Institute Los Angeles: 2018. Softcover. Brand new book. The Acadmie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture French Academy of Painting and Sculpture�perhaps the single most influential art institution in history�governed the arts in France for more than 150 years from its founding in 1648 until its abolition in 1793. Christian Michel's sweeping study presents an authoritative in-depth analysis of the Acadmie's history and legacy. The Acadmie Royale assembled nearly all of the important French artists working at the time maintained a virtual monopoly on teaching and exhibitions enjoyed a priority in obtaining royal commissions and deeply influenced the artistic landscape in France. Yet the institution remains little understood today: all commentary on it during its existence and since its abolition is based on prejudices both favorable and critical that have shaped the way the institution has been appraised. This book takes a different approach. Rather than judging the Acadmie Royale Michel unravels existing critical discourse to consider the nuances and complexities of the academy's history reexamining its goals the shifting power dynamics both within the institution and in the larger political landscape and its relationship with other French academies and guilds. 424 pages 8 1/2 x 10 1/2 inches 75 color and 73 black-and-white illustrations 2 tables.

XVI 621 1 pp. frontiespiece of Darwin. � Rare first Finnish translation of Darwin's Origin of Species. The present translation was published fairly late compared to those of much of the rest of Western Europe. Finlanders had been reading a translation of the 5th London edition since 1871 in Swedish the language of academe in Finland at the time.<br><br>Up until 1913 various books in Finnish had been published on Darwin and his theory but "What was still lacking was Darwin's own book in Finnish translation although such an edition had been suggested in the Vanamo Society as much as ten years earlier. When a government fund for furthering Finnish literature was established in 1909 The Origin of Species was listed among important books that needed to be translated although it was noticed that now fifty years after its original publication it would have more historical than scientific value. For various reasons it took some time before this translation was realized and finally it was published serially between 1913 and 1917.<br>Finnish although the language of the overwhelming majority of the population had for centuries been suppressed and gained cultural status and official recognition only gradually during the latter half of the nineteenth century which of course delayed translation of both classical and contemporary literature including Darwin's works. In this respect the Finnish situation may be compared with the case of the Baltic Peoples the Czechs and the Slovaks the Hungarians the Croatians and the Serbs and some other European nations which in Darwinian times had not yet gained their independence.
