Zahari Stoyanov

1850–1889

Life

Stoyanov participated in the revolutionary movement and wrote about it. Organisation preceded the night of action that united the Principality and Eastern Rumelia. His committee sought coordinated action by soldiers and armed groups, while the newspaper argued for their shared political goal. Chaired the secret committee in Plovdiv in 1885. Published Borba in support of Unification. Left memoirs of the revolutionary movement. A participant’s memoir matters, but must be compared with documents and other testimony.
