The aim of the sixth volume of the series "Problems of Bulgarian Urban Culture" is to present the city as a type of settlement where numerous socially significant functions are concentrated with regard to production activity and cultural life, to education and modern ways of preserving ethnic memory, as well as to the establishment of an environment in which what is inherited and what is borrowed from outside (in the Bulgarian example after the Liberation mainly from Europe) complement each other and coexist in unity. G. Gramatikov's studies "Theater, Audience, Criticism" are dedicated to the emergence and activity of the Haskovo Theater. The author traces the role of the urban intelligentsia in creating conditions for theatrical activity, in forming an audience, in imposing theatrical production of high quality. The study by D. Vasileva "The Contribution of the Lovech Zemlyacheska Organization to the Development of Regional Memoirs and the Preservation of the Memory of Lovech Church-Educational Workers and Donors to Education until the Liberation" is dedicated to those facts from the life of Lovech after the Liberation that show how in the New Bulgarian history the city also takes on the function of a keeper of memory - for the settlement itself and for its most prominent figures. The study by G. Simeonova "Clothing in Ruse" examines the socio-professional and organizational-production conditions for the creation of European-type clothing in the city. The continuity in the production of clothes is traced from the Renaissance to the present day. The study of St. Bogdanova's "Urban Lifestyle, Reproducing European Patterns of Behavior" reminds us through examples of behavior in the family and in society that the Bulgarian was not alien to the European way of life, which is why in his quest for integration into Europe he can also rely on the experience of his own people.
