Summary/Abstract: This article presents reception and sociological analyses of the theater performance Logorilijada from the aspect of the position of an individual in totalitarian societies. The play is about Ilija Jakovljević’s time spent in prison, his tragic life and death, accentuating several universal questions and lessons from his destiny that could be substantial for the future as well. It can be concluded that tragic position of Ilija Jakovljević is not only the result of unfortunate historical and social circumstances, but it is tragic because of the deprivation of all human, moral, and legal assumptions related to the idea of human being and its truly existence and meaning in the world.
