Summary/Abstract: In the following lines, albeit briefly, I will analyze the presence and role of female characters in Andrić’s novels Na Drini ćuprija and Travnička hronika, considering their significance within the stories and the ways in which women are represented through gender and societal contexts. Through examples from these Andrić’s works, I will attempt to demonstrate how female behavior was redefined in a different political/cultural context, amidst the shifts in power that affected Bosnian society.
