In the work submitted, the author makes a brief historical review of Bulgarian ethnographic literature, related, among other things, also to popular medicine investigations. Reference is made to authors as Dr. Yuri Ivanovich Venelin (1825), G.S. Rakovsky (1859), and after the liberation of Bulgaria: Tzani Ginchev Shkeparnev, one of the outstanding protagonists for collecting facts and materials in the field of popular medicine in this country, M. Georgiev, Hr. Popstoilov, K. Irechek, Iv. D. Shishmanov and others. A description is made of the traditional methods of treatment with herbs, charms, healers and the like. Due attention is given also to the popular conceptions and explanation of the contributing factors of diseases, looking for the rationale in them and giving special consideration to the superstitious traces, inherited from the ancient Thracians. It is stressed that the items published heretofore in the "Comopilation of national folklore and literature", covering the field of popular medicine, constitute a great, unique in its significance, national wealth which is seldom found in other countries and which might be utilized by modern medicine as well as for drawing important ethnogenetic inferences.
在提交的作品中，作者对保加利亚民族志文献进行了简要的历史回顾，这尤其与民间医学研究相关。文中提到了尤里·伊万诺维奇·韦内林博士（1825年）、G.S. 拉科夫斯基（1859年）等作者，以及保加利亚解放后的情况：察尼·金切夫·什克帕尔涅夫，该国民间医学领域收集事实和材料的杰出倡导者之一，还有M. 格奥尔基耶夫、赫里斯托·波波斯托伊洛夫、K. 伊雷切克、伊夫·D. 希什马诺夫等人。文中描述了用草药、符咒、治疗师等进行治疗的传统方法。还充分关注了对疾病成因的民间观念和解释，探寻其中的原理，并特别考虑了从古色雷斯人那里继承下来的迷信痕迹。文中强调，迄今为止在《民族民俗与文学汇编》中发表的涉及民间医学领域的内容，构成了一笔伟大且意义独特的国家财富，在其他国家很少见，现代医学可以加以利用，也可用于得出重要的民族起源推论。
