Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses the general aspects of the mission of Andrej Mitrovic in Literary science. Through analytical-synthetic method, we highlight the following aspects: 1 the general relations between history and literature, 2. general characteristics that connect different arts; 3. the impact of historical circumstances to the artistic creation; 4 the influence of art on society. In each of these aspects, Mitrovic uses four perspectives: 1. explanation of perception in that historical moment. 2. the modern attitude toward historical perception; 3 cyclical perspective (in the comparison between different epochs), 4. Universal value and significance of art, the aesthetic criteria, as well as the question of humanity. This mission remains actual, in contemporary times, we are witnesses not only Man`s and Mitrovic`s understandings of vulnerable humanity, but this feature of society manifests itself in every moment of modern existence, and the artistic creative process to the front desk. The importance of Mitrovic’s mission in history of science and Literary science consists in the awareness that historical phenomena, and general civilizational processes, should not be considered in the sole, linear-causal sense, but it should be borne in mind he simultaneous existence of of different and even seemingly contradictory causes, in the spirit of ambiguity, cyclicity and transformation, which further branch into new processes and different outcomes.
