About the author

Ramon Llull (c. 1232 - c. 1315), T.O.S.F. (Anglicised Raymond Lully in Latin Raimundus or Raymundus Lullus or Lullius; in Castillan Raimundo Lulio, in Portuguese Raimundo Lulio) was a Majorcan writer and philosopher, logician and a Franciscan tertiary. He is credited with writing the first major work of Catalan literature. Recently surfaced manuscripts show him to have anticipated by several centuries prominent work on elections theory. He is also considered a pioneer of computation theory, especially given his influence on Gottfried Leibniz.

Within the Franciscan Order he is honored as a martyr. He was beatified in 1857 by Pope Pius IX and his feast day was assigned to 30 June and is celebrated by the Third Order of St. Francis.

Reviews

[Lluc · Rating 5 out of 5]

Ramón Llull escriu i explica tant bé tot, normal que sigui considerat un dels millors escriptors en català.

[leonardo V. granados · Rating 4 out of 5]

És una bogeria perquè explica la història d'un boig que ho vol canviar tot. No un aspecte del món sinó TOT. I Ramon Llull t'explica com s'ha de canviar el món a través de la força de la paraula (i en alguns casos) dels diners. És un viatge físic i espiritual.

Admiro la capacitat de fe que té aquest home i el fort convenciment que pot i ha de transformar el món.

[James · Rating 3 out of 5]

I don't think it's really a bad book, but I want to warn prospective readers that it's hard to read, so I give it three stars (not like Heidegger, where the ideas are hard, but just hard to pay attention to).
