Sažetak
The basic goal of this paper is to give further insights into the imagery of the border between the Ottoman Empire and the West, as depicted by the late 15th and early 16th century Croatian authors from the territories directly affected by Ottoman military activities. The research is based on the discourse analysis of a number of speeches, orations, and letters all sharing the same purpose – obtaining military assistance against "the common enemy of Christianity", i.e. the Ottoman Empire. The author focuses on the highly schematic depictions of the borderlands represented as the ideological and metaphorical delimitation between Christianity and Islam, and discusses their employment in the argumentative structure of these texts.
