Summary/Abstract: The main subject of the paper is analysing the problem of fiction and the fan- tastic in the works of Milorad Popović Šapcanin that have been neglected in the Serbian literary science. The corpus entering the domain of research is made up of the following texts: Theologian (1877), Dangerous Friend (1881), Old, Writing Desk (1881), and Shadows (1902). A segment of the paper is dedicated to the contextual positioning of the author and a review of the prevailing views on the interaction of the modalities of the realistic and the fantastic. The primary goal is to conceive the basic semantic settings of M. P. Šapčanin’s fantastic prose, while the secondary goal is to read, interpret and revalue his work.
