On Macedonian Matters

Za makedonckite raboti (Cyrillic script: За македонцките работи, English translation: On Macedonian Matters) is a book written by Krste Misirkov and published in 1903 in Sofia, Bulgaria.

In November 1903 Misirkov arrived from Russia in Sofia for the purpose of printing his book, which was published at the end of the year.

Most copies were confiscated or destroyed by the Bulgarian police and Internal Macedonian-Adrianople Revolutionary Organization (IMARO) activists, shortly after the book was published.

[13] According to some researchers Misirkov's principles played a crucial role in the future codification of Macedonian, right after World War II, while Loring Danforth considers that the language planners involved in the codification of standard literary Macedonian in 1944, were working in complete ignorance of Misirkov's work.

[14] After the Second World War Misirkov's book will be permanently cited by the historians in Macedonia as an indication of the existence of a separate Macedonian ethnicity at his time.

A letter from the Serbian embassy in Sofia to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Serbia, regarding purchasing of 50 copies of Misirkov's book.
In 1907, in the introduction to his article "Notes on South Slavic Philology and History", Misirkov rejected the ideas of his 1903 book.
