The article presents an annotated edition of the parts of František Kubka’s Bulgarian Diary (1949) where the author — at that time the ambassador of the Czechoslovak Republic in Bulgaria — describes the life in Voyvodovo, the only Czech village in Bulgaria. Most of the information in the Diary comes from Kubka’s own visit in the village in 1948, in the time of preparation for remigration of its inhabitants to Czechoslovakia. The text is preceded by an introduction into the (study of) history of Voyvodovo and its Czech community and a short overview of F. Kubka’s work. It is also supplemented by explanatory notes and by a short analysis of its content at the end of the text.
