Summary/Abstract: This study deals with the problem of psychological motivation in the drama Komandant Sajler by Borislav Mihajlović Mihiz. Following the path of the writer’s interest in the phenomenon of fanaticism, manifested more than once in various discourse forms, we singled out and analysed the elements which are directly connected to that type of psychological profiling. Since psychology as a science – especially the Vienna school of psychoanalysis – is a topic of this drama, knowledge in this field is necessary in a dual sense in order to examine the conflict in Mihajlović’s drama from a multi-dimensional perspective (S. Freud, C.G. Jung, A. Adler). The aim of this work is also to re-evaluate the existing critical analyses of Komandant Sajler, which play a significant role in the marginalisation of this piece in the context of the writer’s oeuvre, as well as within Serbian 20th century drama.
