TRANSLATED VS. ORIGINAL LITERATURE: RELIGIOUS MENTALITIES MIRRORED IN MEDIEVAL TEXTS IN THE ROMANIAN AREA

Summary/Abstract: Starting from the idea that every society, in a certain moment of its history, has its own vision on the individual, on the environment and on life, as well as a specific sensitivity, the present paper tries to follow the fundamental mental attitudes of Romanians in the Middle Ages regarding divinity, death and the afterlife, as well as the earthly ruler (representative of the Mighty One), regarding the invasion of the country by “the others” (who worshiped other God). In order to demonstrate this, I took into account that the first defining structure of the medieval collective mental is the religious one.
