Abstract

The aim of the study is to compare linguistic and visual expressiveness. The study deals with the words war and peace, which have a complex meaning. The ckeck is carried out on hand of five illustrations of the catalan Vidal Mayor (around 1300), which actually make it clear that there is also a variety of ways of expressing the conditions of war and peace in the image area.
