Summary/Abstract: The Serbians’ history is one of the most dramatic. The image of cnez Lazar is a very suggestive example, of what it means to receive in a certain way at the level of the collective perception, the frustrations of their own historical experiences . The result was the desire to occult, as much as possible, the dark episodes of their own becoming, these being replaced by the mechanisms of the mythical inspired argumentation.
