Las claves hermenéuticas del pensamiento de Ramón Llull

Abstract

The hermeneutic keys of Ramon Llull's thought. One of the greatest difficulties to understand Ramon Llull's philosophy is its hermeneutic approach to his thought. Some have valued extremely his latin scholastic Studies, others have searched for his Arab background. This article gives a critical review of his bibliography with regard to the subject under discussion and takes into account that the scientific knowledge of Ramon Lull's thought was never part of the university world of his time .It is the result of the close union with the language and the Arab ideas during the post-conquest days in Mallorca, the acquisition of first and second hand information of latin texts and his presence at Montpellier's Medicine schools.
