Summary/Abstract: This text analizes all the elements which regulate factors of psychological illumination of characters in a modern novel such as The Lover of Duklja by Jevrem Brković. The introspective rapine is examined throughout inner monologue technique and live speech, which are the most frequent in this work. Anthropologic methodology of characterization moves standardized borders and presents the main character, who is completely innormative in a relation with the characters constructed in the era of socialistic realism. A modern main character is dispersed and transformative, in collision with the outer world and often closed in to himself. Beams of binary dissemination of personality contribute to a complete polarization, so that the reader is presented a character who is torn with intellectual and moral doubts, which are actualized in 20th century.
