Owing to the fact that there are thousands of written, audio and video recordings of oral lyrical poetry of South Slavic peoples - Bosniaks, Montenegrins,Croats and Serbs - whose connection on lingual and literary levels are undeniable, it was possible to approach the task of a comprehensive theoretical classification of Bosniak oral lyrical poetry in its various forms of expression The life in a relatively small area in the southeastern Balkans where these peoples have lived with or along each other over ,many centuries- regardless of the shifting borders that divided them in some periods or different state and political frameworks in which they lived and acted,sometimes even as military opponents - led to diverse and vibrant everyday encounters which had a significant impact on shapes of folkloric melodic and poetic creations whose theoretical classification is the subject of this book The issues of the common and shared aspects in South Slavic poetry,i e poetic and differential features, have not been given the deserved attention in the existing works dedicated to these topics The common features at the thematic and motif level in oral literature are visible and have been observed to some extent in terms of literature history in works of the authors who studied the poetic heritage over past several decades. However, we lack approaches which would, in a comprehensive manner,classify certain lyrical occurrences, whereby we must note that - when it comes to Bosniak oral lyrical poetry - a lot has been achieved in theoretical classification of sevdalinka love song, and as of lately lullabies too There is a unanimous opinion in the relatively rich literature on sevdalinka that local features make out the difference between sevdalinka songs and lyricallove songs of the neighboring traditions In order to fully understand this, we must focus our attention on the fact that local features, i e the way in which the poet's reality is described in the oral poem, also represent the differential feature of "transitional forms" of ballads and romances, which has been explained comprehensively in the existing literature.

Over the past 130 years, the National Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina has become a rich treasury of the cultural and historical heritage of the peoples of Bosnia and Herzegovina. This unique resource allows for a scholarly approach to studying different subjects including aspects of the preserved spiritual heritage. The collection entitled Narodne umotovorine (Folk Wisdom), along with its accompanying introductory paper, has the goal to bring a valuable manuscript of folk poems and songs kept at the Folklore Archives of the National Museum closer to the audience. This manuscript, created by Smajl O. Bradarić (1914-1993), a religion teacher from Maglaj, over the course of ten years of his collecting efforts and containing over one thousand oral lyric works, arrived to the National Museum in the middle of the 20th century. Exactly this period - from the1950s through 1980s - was the period of the greatest abundance of ethno-folkloristic contributions since the Museum was established until today.The manuscript collection created by Bradarić represents the folklore life as it was in the period between 1938 and 1948 in the area of Bosanski Novi, Derventa and Malglaj, as well as along the roads connecting these towns in northern Bosnia. This manuscript portrays the life of people de-scribed through different forms of lyric expression - and although most songs were told by elderly women and a few older community leaders who lived in the area and in the period of collection - it also contains several songs which came to the author through his students, who collected them from different people, often the younger ones. Bradarić's collection also contains the entire songbook collected by Mihajlo Prosenik, Orthodox Christian church official, who collected it from his closest family members, with whom Bradarić collaborated. It also contains songs recorded in Maglaj, Žepče as well as parts of Central Bosnia, told by - as he puts it -Muslims and Bosnian Catholics, today ethnically labeled as Bosniaks and Croats. As such, this unique collection represents a valuable "treasure chest of the folk's soul". It is in fact an example of a folklore idyll collected from persons of different age, sex and religion who Bradarić met, and who were willing to share their songs with him.
