Texts awarded in the fourth edition of the Prof. Boris Parashkevov student competition for translation from German

Abstract

In March 2025, the German Philology program at Sofia University St. Kliment Ohridski announced its fourth Student Translation Competition from German into Bulgarian. The competition is dedicated to the memory of Prof. Boris Parashkevov (1938–2021), a long-time professor in German Philology, a prominent Germanist of international renown, a specialist in diachronic linguistics, etymology, history, and historical grammar of the German language, who left behind a valuable body of translations from German and Finnish that will remain an example of a professional approach to translation and a mastery of the translator’s craft.
