Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with a complex genre structure of the chronicle-novel „The Bridge on the Drina” which makes the work mosaic and contextual. Genre allusions are initial impulse for intertextual merger with the ancient story: ancient and Christian mythology (myth on world creation and destruction of the created: myth on flood), Biblical legends (on sacrificing, resurrection, and new, authentic creation), and with verbal literature tradition.
