Under the Yoke	comment	Under the Yoke, original title: Под игото (Pod igoto) is a 1888 novel by Bulgarian writer Ivan Vazov. Considered a cornerstone in Bulgarian literature, it is the first full-length Bulgarian novel and one of Vasov's most revered works. It is set during the end of the Ottoman rule of Bulgaria, dealing with the life and rebellion of the villagers in the fictional town of Byala Cherkva.A recent fugitive from his imprisonment in Diyarbakir in Asia Minor, Ivan "Kralicha" finds haven at a friend of his father's, the wealthy chorbadji Marko, in Byala Cherkva. He assumes the identity of the new teacher, Boycho Ognyanov, and with friends old and new starts working to found a revolutionary committee in the town and instigate rebellion.If you want to learn more, you can read the book for yourself (unlike most of the graduating students).

Under the Yoke / int_6c7136b7	type	Tactful Translation
Under the Yoke / int_6c7136b7	comment	Tactful Translation: At one point, the townsfolk perform a stage play of Geneviève de Brabant and invite the Turkish bey (regional governor). At the end, they suddenly start singing a revolutionary song calling the people to rise against the Ottomans. The bey, not knowing Bulgarian, is genuinely curious what the song is about (he loved the play), so an interpreter invents the following story on the fly: Siegfried tells Genevieve he now loves her a hundred times more than before, she answers that she loves him a thousandfold; he vows to build a church at the mouth of the cave where he found her, she promises to build a hundred water fountains. The bey asks, why so many water fountains, better build some bridges. It's Germany, the interpreter explains, they don't have much water there, that's why they drink so much beer. The bey remained blissfully unaware of the rebellious song and when Stefchov reported it, he simply said he was there and heard no such thing, while Stefchov was at this time outside, having been kicked out earlier.
