For Bulgarians the decade preceding the Russo-Turkish War of 1877–1878 was a period of feverish activity along two principal lines. One, centering in Constantinople, was primarily cultural: its object the wresting of ecclesiastical independence from a reluctant Porte and a still more reluctant Greek Patriarch, together with a far-reaching program of intellectual and educational propaganda in preparation for political independence. The other school of thought and action, focused in Bucharest with branches in other Bulgarian emigré centers such as Odessa and Belgrad, was impatient and scornful of the cautious Constantinopolitans; its avowed object was immediate political liberation, to be achieved through revolutionary risings in Bulgaria, with or without outside help. The seeming docility and “loyalty” of the evolutionists exasperated the followers of Rakovski, Karavelov, and Levski. On the other hand, the rashness of the revolutionists shocked the party led by Slaveikov, Tsankov, and Burmov, who were in a better position to appreciate the risks and the need for solid preliminary groundwork.
