Well yes I know the subject is rather funny and yes, python is a programming language while django is a framework based on python, however, django is like a whole new language...
if you have come from planet java, grasping python is like a walk in the park, try walking into django and the ground gets shaky if not upside-down, its like starting all over again.
thats my take, whats yours?
I also came to Python and Django, via Java. You might also want to check out Flask [1] (maybe after you learn Django), if you want to better understand what goes on under the hood. It looks a lot like Django on the outside, has a gentle learning curve and excellent documentation, has a small core, and is easy to mix and match with third-party libraries and frameworks [2] [3].
