Abstract. The paper is focused on the presence of the writer Svetoslav Minkov in Bulgarian literature curricula before and after 1989 until his exclusion according to the latest Ordinance № 5 from 2015 of the National Education Standards of Bulgaria. In People’s Republic of Bulgaria, the appearance of Minkov’s works is sporadic and ideologically oriented, while during the years after 1989, the inclusion of the author with his stories with fantastical elements written in the 1930s corresponds with the emerging tendency towards universalization and focus on common human values while studying literature in school. The article argues that the presence of Svetoslav Minkov in Bulgarian literature curricula steps on the possibility of creating intellectual provocation for the students while analyzing the literary text and perceiving the empirical reality.
