Krste Misirkov
Krste Misirkov returned in Bitola and worked on the plan for opening Macedonian schools. It was at that time that the Ilinden Uprising broke out, in which Misirkov did not personally participate. Around this time he wrote his infamous book which he gave the title On Macedonian Matters, as well as on some manuscripts for textbooks. In order to publish his book, Misirkov went to Sofia. Part of the Belgrade press and Sofia press fiercely attacked Misirkov for that lecture he gave in the hall of the Great School.
