He points out that Marie Vrinat-Nikolovis is one of the greatest Bulgarian translators, connoisseurs of Bulgarian literature. She is also the author of books on the theory and practice of translation. The award, established in the name of Etienne Dolet, a great humanist of the 16-th century, translator and author of the first treatise on French translation, aims to draw public attention to the contribution of translation to culture and knowledge.
