The article concerns the analysis of the contemporary texts of historiography. In their methodological approach, the historiographers use the story and the plot and look at the concept of the scientific fact. That kind of approach, which faces the historiographic research from the perspective of the contemporary philosophical praxis of deconstruction, enables the establishing of a connection between historiography and fiction. This results in the producing of the so-called historiographic metafiction, as a special genre of the novelistic narration. In addition, this study interprets the novel «Krale Marko» by Slobodan Mickovik.
