He was born around 1818 in Köprülü, Ottoman empire (today in Republic of Macedonia). Yordan completed his basic education in a local church school at Veles and next he attended the high schools at Thesalonika and Samokov. In 1840 he started to teach as a private teacher, and in 1845 he was appointed a teacher in a municipal school at Veles. There Yordan involved in a conflict with the Greek clergy and he was forced to leave the town. In 1848 he settled in Üsküp (now Skopje), where he worked as a teacher in the Bulgarian school. There Yordan applied modern pedagogical methods in his practice. Meanwhile he published some patriotic articles in the Bulgarian newspaper "Tsarigradski vestnik". In January 1857 Yordan was dismissed from the service under the pressure of the Greek metropolitan bishop of Üsküp. The same year the local Turkish authorities had Yordan exiled from Üsküp, where he would not return. In 1861, when the Grand Vizier of the Empire visited Köprülü, Benedictus (local bishop) acaused Yordan Hadzhikonstantinov of spying and conspiracy with the Serbians and the Bulgarian leader Georgi Rakovski, whose prohibited in Turkey books and newspapers Yordan had kept in his private library. The Grand Vizier believed the allegations and had Yordan exiled in Aydın, (Asia Minor). On the way to Aydin Yourdan lost one of his eyes, course he was called "The Genie" (''Джинот'', ''Dzhinot''). He returned from exile in 1863 and devoted all of his time to the education. Yordan Hadzhikonstantinov-Dzhinot died in Köprülü on 22 August 1882. ==Works== Yordan Hadzhikonstantinov was in touch with The Society of the Serbian Letters (Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts) in Belgrade and he published some of his discoveries on the pages of ''Glasnik magazine'' (an official tribune of the society). On 24 January 1854 Yordan sent from Skopie a manuscript copy of а medieval Bulgarian record, called "A narration about the restoration of the Bulgarian Patriarchate in 1235", which was discovered at first by Dzhinot and was published in ''Glasnik magazine'' in 1855. Yordan Hadzhikonstantinov-Dzhinot found a manuscript of a Bulgarian medieval story "An oration of Saint Cyryl, how he baptized the Bulgarian people", called "Solunska legenda" ("A legend from Thesalonika"). It was published in ''Glasnik magazine'' in 1856. Yordan Hadzhikonsatntinov was author of some patriotic articles in the Bulgarian ''Tsarigradski Vestnik'' (''Istanbul newspaper''), as "God" (published in 1851), "Bulgarian literature" (1852), "About the Church Slavonic language" (1852), "Veles" (1857), "Prilep" (1854) etc. They contain information about the history and geography of the Macedonian region, and also some information about the history of the Bulgarian people, Bulgarian education and the Bulgarian Church in Macedonia. Being a real Bulgarian patriot, Yordan Hadzhikonstantinov-Dzhinot thought that Bulgarians are descendants of the ancient Thracians and Illyrians. In his publications, Yordan lost no occasion to declare his Bulgarian ethnic identity: "...I am Bulgarian, and I bewail our lost Bulgarians, who are in Lower Moesia, and it is our duty to lay down our life for our brothers, the dearest Bulgarians." 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「Yordan Hadzhikonstantinov-Dzhinot」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
