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 stecci. His works Kameni spavac (Stone Sleeper) and Modra rijeka (Blue River) are probably the most important Bosnian poetic achievements of the 20th century.
