Blasius Kleiner

Blasius Kleiner was a Franciscan friar who wrote the History of Bulgaria one year before Istoriya Slavyanobolgarskaya. It is not clear when and where he was born, but he died in 1785. He lived in Alvinz (Vințu de Jos).[1]

In his motives for this historical work, as a non-Bulgarian Transylvanian Saxon, he points out that it was mainly Greeks, who in past centuries had often experienced the power of Bulgarians, who spoke about Bulgarian affairs and often altered and manipulated the truth. The other work he is famous for is the legend of Bucur (legendary shepherd).
