Summary/Abstract: This paper examines the impact of communist ideology on the literature of Branko Ćopić, as well as the acts of using his literary opus as an ideological apparatus. Having defined the notions of ideology and poetics, the author presents the characteristics of Ćopić’s literature on the example of a few of his works, divided into periods from social literature to critical writing. In the conclusion, the author warns against the shortcomings of the interpretations of Ćopić’s work in school settings if the ideological context of their creation is neglected.
