That was so interesting. Thankyou for taking the time to talk about the inspiration and history of your work. I'd love to know more about Byzantine and Bulgarian bookbinding; and their other arts & crafts. Looking forward to part 3! :)

It's something I'm really trying to learn more myself these past few years. It's so freely available around me, yet somehow buried and forgotten in the fast paced reality of modern problems and thoughts. I fear, people are losing a lot of their heritage without even sensing it.

Колко е важна музата ....Днес гледах първата част и просто не мога да си поема дъх всеки път щом помисля за книгата ...Има всичко,което ме привлича ,всичко което ми липсва от България,всичко за което съм мечтала ...Нереална ...Иска ми се да я видя поне веднъж ,да я докосна ....Поклон пред ръцете на майка ти ,поклон пред ръцете на баща ти,поклон пред твоите ....И това ,което е излязло от тях...Гледам я и не мога да поема емоциите ,които се вихрят ...толкова е БЪЛГАРИЯ ..

Fascinating!! This piece is greatly enhanced by this documentary of it's history, inspiration, design, and creation. It's more than a book, it's total conceptual and artisanal work of art. Thank you so much for sharing all this with us!!

И много се радвам ,че орнамента с петното мастило е там ...

Oh this looks really good! -- This is a very well thought out perspective and I appreciate it. I am from Poland as was learning about this time period in history and find it very interesting. Thank you always for sharing! ♡

I speak Slovak, and when you speak Bulgarian it sounds like I should be understanding what you are saying, but I'm only catching a few words here and there!

Любопитно е, че при лондонското евангелие, при амулета пише просто името на царя и титлатата му, като може да се прочете отгоре-надолу и от ляво-на дясно и обратно. В случая, Стопан е написал изречението да се чете само от ляво на дясно. Разбирането му беше труднo поради факта, че той е добавил лека стилизация на глаголическите букви. Всъщност, той е написал три отделни думи - ⰑⰁⰂⰟⰆⰉ ⰑⰒⰀⰈⰉ ⰔⰟⰈⰄⰀⰊ
