Abstract

In his desire to fulfill the need for an epic poetic tradition in Slovene literature, Aškerc sought inspiration in the Bulgarian liberation struggle of the 1870s. He studied literary and historical essays by Z. Stojanov, H. Botev,S. Zaimov, D. Strašimirov, S. Bobčev, and others. Every poem of his Rapsodije begins with a motto from Botev's poetry, althought there are noticeable important similarities between the general idea, themes, and structure of Aškerc's Rapsodije and Ivan Vazov's cycle Epopeja na zabravenite, literary historians have not discover the poets' direct influence on each other. Hence the Slovene poet in several ways emphasied his connection with the Bulgariuan Ravival literarure and culture.
