Hrvoje Lasić ; Filozofski fakultet Družbe Isusove u Zagrebu, Zagreb, Hrvatska

Abstract

In this article the author examines the manner and the particular sense in which Dominicans influenced Marulić's philosophical-theological thought as expressed in his works. In the first section the author deals with Marulić's references to Dominican saints in his work De institutione bene vivendi per exempla sactorum. Secondly, he analyzes «traces» of Marulić's ties with the Dominicans in Split. In the third section, by applying the comparative method, the author makes a critical study of the prevailing Aquinian teachings and thoughts in Marulić's works. He concludes that Marulić was on friendly terms with the Dominicans, and that the teachings of Aquinas greatly affected the writing of his literary works. The author is of the opinion that Marulić's friendly ties with the Domincans have not been thoroughly researched, as has neither the Dominicans' effect on Marulić's creative thought.
