Abstract

This entry explores the relationship of the thought of Ramon Llull (Majorca, ca. 1232–1316), and of his Art in particular, to the traditional scholastic philosophy of his time. Central topics addressed are metaphysics and ontology, logic, rhetoric, and Llull’s rationalist polemic against the Parisian Averroists.
