Summary/Abstract: As we read the works of Nićifor Ninković (My Chronicles), Prota Matija Nenadović (Memoirs), and Aleksandar Piščević (My Life), we may observe numerous similarities between them. The literary and life destinies of Ninković and Nenadović stand in a particular correlation, as the authors share a common historical moment and space. On the other hand, Piščević belongs to a generation born and raised in Russia. Pointing out the similarities and differences between the mentioned works is of crucial importance, as the comparative analysis includes the father motif, which is vital for this paper. We shall present how fathers are represented in the listed works, the relationship between the heroes and their fathers in Nenadović’s and Piščević’s works, as well as the type of relationship which Ninković develops with his children and the sort of pillar of the family that he stands for. We shall determine the role and significance of the father in the process of personality formation, the impact of fathers on the later lives of their children, and which of the represented fathers correspond to the demands of the traditional father figure.
