Abstract
In this study we refer to the phenomenon of piety and its influence on
literature and philosophy by this day. Starting from the term “folk-Bogomilan” poetry,
first used by Kocho Racin, we present observations about the possibilities of emergence,
even if spontaneous and not formed completely, of contemporary folk-Bogomilan authors,
i.e. contemporary folk-Bogomilan literature. Hence, we terminologically upgrade Racin’s
position on folk-Bogomilan poetry with folk-Bogomilan or contemporary Bogomilan

authors who have a distinctly social creative dimension. Such authors, for example, apart
from Racin, are August Cesarec, Miroslav Krleza, Hristo Botev, Ivan Cankar, etc. These
were authors who were “a thorn in the side of all conservative people”, who brought
a “new spirit, art and life” into their works and who found themselves in conflict with
the social systems of the time, i.e. the rule of “being Bogomil meant living outside the
law, without the protection of any earthly authorities they were surrounded with” applied
to them. In their works we should look for a reference to the old times, to denying and
fighting against the existing social, religious and economic systems, to a demand for social
justice, to dualism, etc.
