Abstract: The goal of the project is to reevaluate the earliest texts of the Bulgarian national revival by researching the elements that are used to make the written text not just more realistic, but documental, to give the impression that the story that is told is not just realistic, but based on true events. For the rethinking of the authentic ideas of the Bulgarian literature of the 19th century, a particularly important factor was the reader's reception of the Revival audience. The project uses the ideas of the German scholar Robert Jauss in order to analyze how the literary works combine fictional and documentary elements in order to convince the reader that the story they are reading is not only plausible, but really happened.
Keywords: bulgarian revival, literature and its writing, fictional and documentary elements, reception in reading
