Abstract
This paper aims to provide an introduction to the reception of Walter Scott in Bulgaria, and more specifically, to the reception of his historical novel Ivanhoe. For that purpose, the paper is divided into two sections. The first section offers an overview of the publication facts in terms of reception, while the second part presents a comparative analysis of three different Bulgarian translations of the novel, supported by concrete examples. The main goal of the paper is to use this case study as a roadmap for further research of Walter Scott’s reception in Bulgaria.
