Summary/Abstract: This paper discusses the stylistic features of the epic poem The Marriage of Beg Ljubović by Radovan Bećirović. The analysis includes composition, vocabulary and direct speech. The aim of the paper is to shed light on the peculiarities of composi- tion, to record lexical layers and to determine the used models of transmitting direct speech. The ultimate goal is to determine the stylistic features that differentiate the poem The Marriage of Beg Ljubović from other epic poems as well as from other poems from Radovan Bećirović’s opus. The composition of the poem is quite complex, the vocabulary is layered, and the direct speech proves to be a successful stylistic means by which dramatization is achieved. The analytical-descriptive method was used in the paper. Unlike traditional epic poems, the poem The Marriage of Beg Ljubović contains descriptions of psychological states, descriptions of landscapes and descriptions of heroes. Description often replaces narration. On the lexical level, the appearance of neologisms is noticed as a differential feature. Using the forms of direct and indirect speech, the discourses of the heroes are introduced into the poem. Several variations of direct speech have been noted: true, unintroduced and free.
