Yavorov, Peyo

Yavorov, Peyo

▪ Bulgarian author
pseudonym of  Peyo Kracholov  
born Jan. 13, 1878, Chirpan, Bulg.
died Oct. 16/29, 1914, Sofia

      Bulgarian poet and dramatist, the founder of the Symbolist movement in Bulgarian poetry.

      Yavorov took part in the preparation of the ill-fated Macedonian uprising against Ottoman hegemony in August 1903, edited revolutionary papers, and crossed twice into Macedonia with partisan bands. He committed suicide at the age of 36.

      Until 1900 Yavorov mainly wrote poetry of a sociopolitical character, inspired by compassion for the peasantry, the struggles of the Macedonians, and the suffering of the Armenian exiles. Disillusionment with radicalism led him then to abandon realism for introspection and Symbolism. Besides several collections of poems—Stikhotvoreniya (1901); Bezsunitsi (1907); Podir Senkite na Oblatsite (1910)—his works include the plays V Polite na Vitosha (1911) and Kogato Gram Udari (1912); a biography of the Macedonian leader Gotse Delchev; and a book of reminiscences of his fighting days, Haidushki Kopneniya (1908).
