Summary/Abstract: A part of Milan Milišić’s oeuvre – two poems (“When God Was Creating Dubrovnik” and “Popiva’s”) and an essay (“Pomet’s Letter to Laus”) – are the paradigmatic examples of the author’s specific creative dialogue with the work of Marin Držić. This relation is reflected on the inter-textual plane in quotations, allusions, the reconstruction of Držić’s dramatic characters, and (re-)stylization of his topics. All these layers are elements of the conceptual and notional interference with a traditional template, through which Milišić’s work, to a certain extent, poetically and stylistically ties in with the heritage of Dubrovnik literature.
