Summary/Abstract: Writing of this paper required a lot of quotations contributing to the con sistency and coherence of the presentation of the main idea in accordance with social values. our intention is not to present The Mountain Wreath /Gorski vijenac/ as the image of cleavage and conflict, as njegoš and his en tire opus are sometimes and for various reasons presented. on the contrary, the author wants to emphasize the essence of this work, which is the desire for liberation from the ottoman rule, through renewal of statehood, rule of law, cultural recovery, exchange of ideas, connections and cooperation with peoples and states. it seems that today the wholeness of the Serbian state is seriously endangered, with threatening dispersion of Serbs and severe unse lective influence of the other, unconnectable with the long-shaped values of the dynaric type. This is one more reason to be reminded of the njegoš’s work, in which he clearly distinguished good from bad, human from inhu mane, virtue from evil. There is never too much of spiritual inspiration and pointing to spiritual origins – on the contrary, spiritual reconsideration and challenging of actions is a vital need, particularly today when everything in our country and in our people has been diluted.
