摘要：The volume ‘Transborder Commemora-tion Routes and Rituals’ edited by Lina Gergova, Valentin Voskresenski, and Yana Gergova (Sofia: Paradigma, 2019) is a result of the work of a team based at the Institute of Ethnology and Folklore Studies at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences on the project ‘Constructing National Cultural Heritage Abroad. Transborder Pilgrimage and Com-memorative Practices’ funded by the Bulgarian National Science Fund. The issues that the book discusses are among the most important for present-day ethnology, cultural anthropology and folklore studies – constructing national identity abroad in the context of transborder commemorative and pilgrimage traditions, rituals, and practices. Both the subject and the area of the study are quite wide – from Europe to the Middle and Far East. The book is interdiscipli-nary – methods and approaches from the fields of ethnic and folklore studies as well as of sociology and social anthropology have been used. The volume consists of 262 pages and is rich in maps, diagrams and pictures.
