Mehmedalija "Mak" Dizdar (17 October 1917 – 14 July 1971) was a Bosnian poet. His poetry combined influences from the Bosnian Christian culture, Islamic mysticism and cultural remains of medieval Bosnia, and especially the stećci.
His works Kameni spavač (Stone Sleeper) and Modra rijeka (Blue River) are regarded as the most important Bosnian poetic achievements of the 20th century.
