Statue of the Bulgarian cleric Partenij Zografski (1818-1876) in Skopje, Macedonia


Partenij Zografski (1818 - February 7, 1876) was a 19th-century Bulgarian cleric, philologist, and folklorist from Galicnik in today's Republic of Macedonia, one of the early figures of the Bulgarian National Revival. In his works he referred to his language as Bulgarian and demonstrated a Bulgarian spirit, though besides contributing to the development of the Bulgarian language, in the Republic of Macedonia he is also thought to have contributed to the foundation of the Macedonian language.
