Georgi Sava Rakovski was a 19th-century Bulgarian revolutionary, poet, and journalist whose organizing work in the 1860s laid much of the ideological groundwork for the April Uprising of 1876 and the liberation that followed two years later. He died of tuberculosis in 1867, before seeing any of it.
