Interpreting individual texts by Rada Kirkovich, this article problematizes important aspects of women’s epistolary and journalistic texts in the nineteenth century about the slow steps towards women’s emancipation. In these appearances, the prominent role of the educated woman within the strictly regulated boundaries of Bulgarian Revival publicity becomes more apparent. Adherence to these patterns of opening helped to gradually shape the modern-minded individual with her new social role. The Revival woman is enthralled by a new model standing alien to the traditional patriarchal society. The analysis of the post-liberation book “Memories” (1927) by R. Kirkovich allows us to trace the more marginal place of the female figures about the visible role of prominent Bulgarian and Russian public figures during the Renaissance. Through her autobiography, the writer constructs women’s history – exemplars of a new type of cultural presence in the 19th century.
