SPATIAL DEVELOPMENT SCHEMES IN BULGARIAN MONASTERY COMPLEX ON THE EXAMPLE OF SAMOKOV MONASTERY
Abstract
The development of the spatial schemes in monasteries in Bulgaria is largely influenced by the socio-economic conditions in the country. In periods of rising development schemes evolve to many-spatial solutions and conversely, in a hard times it is noticed regression and shrinking contours to one-space schemes. A number of authors consider this process for completed by the end of the Renaissance formulating five development phases. Samokov Convent "Shroud of Holy Mary" is evidence that this process is not complete and even today the spatial schemes follow the natural course of time and develop adequately the socioeconomic situation,which makes the definition of a new reference development period.
