The Sts. Cyril and Methodius Bulgarian Men's High School of Thessaloniki〔″The Exarchate eventually yielded, and the St Cyril and St Methodius Bulgarian High School opened in Thessaloniki in the spring of 1880; followed two years later by the Annunciation Bulgarian Girls' High School.″ Hidryma Meletōn Chersonēsou tou Haimou, p. 71.〕 ((ブルガリア語:Солунска българска мъжка гимназия „Св. св. Кирил и Методий“), ''Solunska balgarska mazhka gimnazia „Sv. sv. Kiril i Metodiy“'') 〔(direkzija )〕 was the first Bulgarian high school in Macedonia. One of the most influential Bulgarian educational centres in Macedonia, it was founded in autumn 1880〔Bozhinov, p. 73〕 in Ottoman Thessaloniki (today in Greece) and existed until 1913.〔Mazover p. 279.〕 ==Foundation== The first Bulgarian language school in Thessaloniki was founded in 1871 next to the church of Agios Athanasios. Following the April Uprising of 1876, the Russo-Turkish War of 1877-1878, the Kresna-Razlog Uprising and other events, the Bulgarian educational cause in Macedonia had to live through a number of blows. Exploiting anti-Bulgarian sentiment among government officials, Greek bishops succeeded in shutting down a lot of Bulgarian schools and in re-introducing the Greek language to Bulgarian churches in the region. As a result, part of the Bulgarian intelligentsia emigrated to the Principality of Bulgaria and the province of Eastern Rumelia. They did, however, manage to continue their work, supported by local municipalities, the Bulgarian Exarchate, and the newly created Bulgarian state. The situation in Thessaloniki remained relatively calm, given the hard situation elsewhere. The presence of foreign consuls and representations was putting some limitations on the Turkish regime. This fact is asserted by some scholars as the main reason behind the opening of a Bulgarian secondary school in Macedonia resembling the ones in Sofia and Plovdiv.〔Vanchev, p.66〕 In 1880 the Ottoman Empire adopted an Act on Vilaets which limited Greek bishops’ control over Bulgarian churches. Taking advantage of these developments, revivalist Kuzman Shapkarev prepared a whole plan for Bulgarian education in Macedonia, centred on the region’s capital – Thessaloniki. The city ought to host one men’s and one girls’ gymnasium with boarding schools attached to each. Prior to their opening, there was a total of 667 Bulgarian basic schools in Macedonia with 949 teachers and 36,623 students.〔Shatev, p.342〕 The main obstacle before Shapkarev’s plan was the Exarchate’s objection to Thessaloniki hosting the gymnasiums. Dragan Tsankov, who favored the idea in principle, proposed another town situated in Central Macedonia and inhabited by a purely Bulgarian population to host the schools.〔 Despite these differences, the Exarchate backed up the initiative and the Sts. Cyril and Methodius Bulgarian Men's High School of Thessaloniki officially opened doors in the autumn of 1880 with the support of the local Bulgarian community and the Exarchate. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bulgarian Men's High School of Thessaloniki」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
