El Anticristo : dos miradas

Abstract

This article deals with a text from the begining of the spanish XV century: Libro del conocimiento del fin del mundo (in English: Book of the Knowledge of the end of the world) and the eleventh visión of the third book of Scivias, from the german abbess Hildegarda de Bingen, from the XII century, with regard to the Antichrist figure. The inclusión of this second work is due to the fact that the author is mentioned in the first one as one of its sources, in spite of that the differences between both considerations are more remarkable than their similarities.
