Abstract

HRISTO GANDEV THE BULGARIAN NATIONALITY IN THE FIFTEENTH CENTUR Y In its greater part this article is based on the Turkish fiscal documents of the fifteenth and the beginning of the sixteenth centuries. The data used here are abundant and for this reason two modern methods, transposed from other sciences to historical investigation, may be applied. They are the representa- tive statistical method and the structural method of observation of the phe- nomena studied. To put it simply, the first method consists of the determina- tion of the whole by one of its parts or, expressed in a historical aspect, in the generalization of phenomena in one or more regions of the whole country. In this case definite mathematical and technical rules should be strictly observed. This method is widespread in statistical institutions. It is with its aid that changes in the population in a given country are followed up without carrying out a census every year. The structural method has been transferred from biol- ogy to the social sciences, a certain adjustment being required in each of them in relation to the specificity of the objects studied.
