Abstract
This paper will attempt to explain the reasons why it is possible to see Luigi Pirandello’s Il fu Mattia Pascal as the subtext of Branislav Nusic’s last play Pokojnik ( The Deceased ). The novel and the play have many common motifs and they also have a similar composition. Apart from their similar motifs, there are also many intertextual links between the novel and the play. What makes the intertextual links between them very complex is the fact that Luigi Pirandello and Branislav Nusic often used similar mechanisms and stylistic devices in their work, both put emphasis on humour where as their poetics were very different.
