Primož Trubar in Bartolomé de Las Casas

Abstract

Primož Trubar and Bartolomé de Las Casas were contemporaries. It is possible to draw several parallels regarding the life and work of both authors (they both travelled extensively, they caused conflicts due to their activities, their opus is extensive, their genre being semi–literary, and their style is quite similar). But they also differ in many respects. These differences are mainly due to the sense of belonging to two great religious movements of the 16th century and their different attitude regarding the meaning of images.

Primož Trubar in Bartolomé de Las Casas sta bila sodobnika. Najti je mogoče številne vzporednice v življenju obeh avtorjev (oba sta veliko potovala, s svojim delovanjem sta povzročala konflikte; opus obeh je obsežen, žanr polliterarni, stil pa precej podoben). Toda oba se tudi močno razlikujeta. V glavnem se razlikujeta glede pripadnosti različnima religioznima gibanjema 16. stoletja in njunega različnega pogleda v razumevanju podobe.
