Abstract

Modern Balkan history is rich in examples of outside influences and foreign penetrations by various forces, trends or movements. One such episode is the history of American missionary involvement among the Bulgarian population in the region. The second half of the nineteenth century was the backdrop for the establishment of that special Bulgarian mission of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions. The purpose of the present dissertation is to study this mission in an attempt to determine the effects of the conscious missionary effort to change the religious outlook of an entire people.
