Summary/Abstract: In this paper we will deal with the formal and conceptual characteristics of Muharem Kurtagić’s manuscript collection, Book I. We will analyze the material from the collection from the aspect of the relationship between the mythological and the real in oral poetry, comparing it with traditional elements of oral heritage and culture in general. We will present some artistic innovations that characterize the songs of this collection – hybrid forms of songs that have not been recorded so far because we do not find them in the existing classifications of oral creativity.
