Академик Aнастас Иширков – живот посветен на географската наука и на България

Георги Железов, Марияна Николова

Abstract

This article aims to fill the honorary place, which is laid on the founder of the Bulgarian Geographic Science, Acad. Anastas Ishirkov, in this collection of papers, but also to highlight some lesser known details of his research, socio-political and charitable activities. At the same time, the authors removed some inaccuracies in his biography accumulated over time and added new information about his life and activity. This was made possible by our research in the Archive of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, and from the materials for him in the Gipson Archive, as well as by the careful reading of the handwritten autobiography of Acad. Ishirkov.

Keywords: Anastas Ishirkov, biography, geography, history of Bulgaria
