Abstract

The paper considers a multi-levelled process of
construction and reconstruction of Montenegrin
cultural memory through the medieval national
history revived in the 19th
century theatre play
Balkanska carica (Balkan empress, 1884) by the
Prince and the first Montenegrin king Nikola I Petrović Njegoš, the opera with the same name by
Dionisio de Sarno-San Giorgio (1891) and then one
more time in 2006, when the opera was premiered,
in the given political and cultural contexts.
