Summary/Abstract: In the context of studying the poetry of historical drama this work tried to establish a correlation between two artistic words, emphasizing that literature functions in the same manner whether written or oral.The drama Kraljević Marko contributed to this assertion.Writing about Marko Kraljević, the master of his destiny Mihiz will go a step further, comparing the hypotheses which he made. He managed to give a modern connotation to the characters of this play, to face them with a moral doubt.The existing examples from moral literature using dramatic structure became new artistic worlds, by it sense and meaning. Pushing the limits of lyrics, epics and drama Mihiz describes a vicious man and his weakness about the possibility of own choice and inevitability which makes this choice impossible, taking them to moral aspiration and to moral code which is close to existentialism. The writer uses it to create the stage where he will present a man who lives inside, crucified with moral dilemmas. Bringing to the fore the matter of tragic fault Mihiz in the world of theatre brought the current matters of moral integrity, the individuals at the enigma of history, creating a modern drama with an emphasized modern use of man.
