Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren
Hier ein Zitat von ihrem Mann, Stjepan Tomas Kotromanic:
"The Turks have built a number of fortifications in my kingdom and are showing kindly disposition toward the peasants.They promise that all who desert to them shall be free and they welcome them graciously.The inexperienced rustics do not understand their wiles and think their liberty will last forever.The people will be easily induced by such tricks to desert me unless they see me fortified by your aid,and the nobles,if they are deserted by the peasants will not hold out long in their fortress"
(Citat iz pisma Bosanskog Kralja Tomaseica papi naveden u knjizi:"The Late Medieval Balkans:",John V.A. Fine Jr.,The University of Michigan Press,2006,stranica 583.)
Auf bosnisch:
"Turci su izgradili vise utvrda u mom kraljevstvu i ponasaju se dobro prema seljacima. Obecavaju im da ce svi oni koji predju na njihovu stranu biti
SLOBODNI i ljubazni su prema njima.Neiskusni nitkovi ne razumiju njihove podlosti i misle da ce njihova
SLOBODA trajati zauvijek.Narod ce biti vrlo lako naveden takvim trikovima da me napusti osim ako me ne vide utvrdjena tvojom pomoci,a ako plemici budu napusteni od strane seljaka nece moci dugo izdrzati u tvrdjavama."
Die wichtigen Wörter habe ich Dick markiert.
Dieser Brief war an den Papst gerichtet, aber:
"...the Manichees,who were almost majority in his Kingdom,preffered Turks to the Christians."
("The Bosnian Church : A New Interpretation",John V.A. Fine Jr.,Columbia University Press,1975.,stranica 328.)
Bosnisch:
"...Maniheji (bogumili),kojih je uglavnom vecina u njegovom Kraljevstvu vise vole Turcima nego krscanima."
