This article deals with some of the traditions which produced the first illustrated book with didactic purposes. This book is Orbis sensualium pictus or The Visible World in Pictures, by the Moravian thinker John Amos Comenius (Uhersky Brod, 1592 - Amsterdam, 1670). The debates, stirred up by Renaissance scholars’ dissatisfaction with the schools’ deficiencies and shortcomings, had become increasingly widespread and sharp since then. Particularly in the case of Comenius’ work, the argument was over problems in the teaching of Latin, which the author tried to correct through a pleasant treatment of the subject. He used the students’ mother tongue to introduce Latin, thus making the language understandable for the pupils, as well as rendering it favorable to the acquisition of encyclopedic contents, in the word’s broadest sense. The book integrates illustrations and texts in Latin and in the vernacular for each theme. Together, these constitute authentic pictures of the 17th Century. El presente artículo aborda algunas de las tradiciones que dan origen al primer libro ilustrado con fines didácticos. Se trata del Orbis sensualium pictus o El mundo sensible en imágenes, del pensador moravo Juan Amós Comenio (Uhersky Brod, 1592 - Amsterdam, 1670). Los debates, que a partir de los educadores renacentistas cada vez son más extendidos e incisivos, en torno a las deficiencias y limitaciones de la escuela, en el caso de esta obra en particular, se refieren a las aberraciones de la enseñanza del latín que su autor trata de subsanar mediante una enseñanza placentera, apoyada en la lengua materna para introducir el latín haciéndolo comprensible a los estudiantes y propicia a la adquisición de contenidos enciclopédicos en el más amplio sentido del término. La obra integra, para cada tema, imágenes y textos en latín y lengua vernácula que constituyen verdaderos cuadros del siglo XVII.
