Life

Dimitrova was born in Pleven. Her work belongs to the expansion of girls’ education. A secular school offers teaching beyond preparation for church life. The municipality gives 1898 as her death year, while other references give 1894; the discrepancy remains recorded. Opened a girls’ school in Pleven in 1840. Taught girls during the Revival. The school’s example encouraged similar establishments. Her activity shows changes in girls’ access to learning before Liberation.
