* The first full-length analysis of the rhetorical and preaching theories of Ramon Llull, the thirteenth century lay philosopher and theologian Johnston demonstrates how Llull adapted commonplace ideas of courtly speech and popular sermons in order to create a unitary art of secular and sacred eloquence, and shows that Llull exemplifies the development of intellectual and spiritual ideals among the growing class of educated lay people in the later Middle Ages.

  • "Ramon Llull (1232-1316), born on Majorca, was one of the most remarkable lay intellectuals of the thirteenth century. He devoted much of his life to promoting missions among unbelievers, the reform of Western Christian society, and personal spiritual perfection. He wrote over 200 philosophical and theological works in Catalan, Latin, and Arabic. Many of these expound on his "Great Universal Art of Finding Truth," an idiosyncratic dialectical system which he thought capable of proving Catholic beliefs to non-believers."
