Sažetak

In the actual discussions Iacopone da Todi’s Laudes are witness
to the troubled life of the wandering ascetic and excommunicated
friar, sinner and penitent. His Laudes are a sort of Prayer book, but
the analysis of themes and motifs in his poetry connects them with
the Book of Revelation and presents them as being apocalyptic,
spiritual and even heretical. At the same time the fact is accepted
that Iacopone was connected with the apocalyptical Spiritual
Franciscans and from that severe and radical position the author
shows that he was steadfast in condemning the mainstream
church, clergy and the Pope Boniface VIII. Final observations offer
the presentation of Iacopone’s convictions that, in relation to the
papal activities, the cataclysmic end of the history and the world
is approaching.
