Summary/Abstract: The present study represents an analysis of the novel Master and Margarita, more precisely, it elaborates on the conception of ideological power in the second chapter, entitled Pontius Pilate. The perspective on the literary text departs from the standpoint of the concept of ideological power: the importance that the concept conveys pertaining to the narrative strategy and the characters, the symbolism it entails and the attributes of power. The study develops on the idea of power considering its connection with the fictional universe of the epic. Thus, the political message of the novel is rather evident as it constitutes a product of the samizdat, as the novel had a troublesome birth and was not permitted publishing for a long time. Furthermore, it is widely regarded as the masterpiece of Mikhail Bulgakov. The birth of Christianity is the theme of the narrative approached in the study.
