Metaphorical sense in Lullian art of medicine. Some of its particularities

Abstract

We have approached to the medical work of Lull in relation to natural philosophy, studying the relations between the Lullian ars and his medical work -with special attention to his Liber Principiorum Medicinae- and the metaphorical sense that Lull attempts to bring. We have analyzed some of his contributions to medicine and revealed the significance of his sources, in the context of the exchange of knowledge among some medical schools in 13th C.
