Description

Smail Aga Cengic Death

***

Mažuranic is the beloved poet of Smrt Smail age Cengica—” The Death of Smail-aga Cengic”, 1845. This epic poem is full of memorable verses that have become embedded in the national memory of his people, who cherished it as the treasure of “Homeric” wisdom praising such epic virtues as fortitude, fidelity, and justice.

The tale is based on an assault in Montenegro, when a petty local Muslim tyrant was killed, as an act of vendetta, in an ambush set by Montenegrins. Mažuranic’s poetry transformed a rather prosaic act of tribal revenge into a hymn celebrating the struggle for freedom—acted out under the hostile forces of fatality.
