Summary/Abstract: The literary works of Edhem Mulabidc are indeed full of all sorts of educational morals, so much so that even the literary critics noticed this principle. Apart from his literary work, Edhem Mulabdic historically played the role of a national educator, humanist and a reformer. His was a time of great turbulence and historical divides. Mulabdic’s literature visibly bears the mark of that time. His first novels represent the “search” for the new prosaic forms in his mother tongue. They are educational and “safeguard the warmth of the harmonious”, “joyous imbuing of man, nature and the world”. Zeleno busenje (The green sods), a novel from the time of occupation, is the first Bosniac novel and it represents the monument to the Bosnian resistance and to the city of Maglaj. Like all other Mulabdic’s works, this one is not free from the didactical involvement either. Still, Nova vremena (The New Times), his second novel, represents the crowning in his educational tendencies.
