Notes:
This is a phototype second edition of the book published initially in 1992. R.Ivanova offers a new insight into the South Slavic "jounak" epos and am all-round conception of its emergence and development - from mythology to its historic nature. Popular images in epic plots reveal the dynamism in the existence of epos and the numerous re-embodiments and transformations in it. Who is Krali Marko? According to the non-conventional view of the author, the hero has a leading role in the formation and the development of South Slavic epos and in the history of culture in general. The reconstruction of archaic strata reveals links to calendar myths and rituals and to the wedding as a most complex family ritual.
