The life and work of the outstanding Catalan-Majorcan philosopher, logician, and mystic Ramon Llull continues to fascinate thinkers, artists, and scholars worldwide. The primary idea of Ramon Llull’s teachings – to enable rational and therefore trustworthy dialogue between cultures and religions through a universally valid system of symbols – is today still topical and of great relevance, especially in the tensions prevailing in globalized spaces of possibility. In this book, international experts address Lullism as a remarkable and distinctive method of thinking and experimenting.
