As a curiosity, my name appeared also in a German hydrobiological journal - acknowledgement for reviewing an article of my friend Stefan Stoichev, hydrobiologist in the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, Institute of zoology. By the way, in this article he reports a species new for the Bulgarian fauna - Stictochironomus pictulus (Meigen), a kind of insect (midge), found in Pirin Macedonia, BULGARIA (Stoichev, S.

1994

A picture with me appeared in Chitalishte Magazine, CXXIV, 1994, N 9-12, p. 35. Chitalishte was the first Bulgarian magazine, issued in 1870. Petko R. Slaveikov was his editor in 1873. My father Hinko Chernev published a poem in Chitalishte Magazine (in the last issue of 1951, p. 34) and in 1953 he was head of the litterary circle "Aleko Konstantinov" at the first Bulgarian Chitalishte in Svishtov. The Chitalishte institution was created to promote Bulgarian culture to all Bulgarians even in remotest villages during Ottoman rulership. Ami Boué and many others considered it as a Bulgarian contribution to world culture.
