ARTISTIC ASPECTS OF THE UTOPIAN WORLD IN THE NOVEL BLOOD BY KONSTANTIN KONSTANTINOV

  • ABSTRACT

    The most predictable analysis of Blood (1933) by Konstantin Konstantinov is the novel to be presented in terms of its social, historical, political characteristics, to look for reflections on the Bulgarian twentieth century or projections of real people. The present analysis offers a different view – the text to be considered as a work in which artistic aspects of literary utopia can be found. Such an interpretation allows a more complete presentation of the utopian world described in Konstantinov’s novel.
