Ramon Llull was a Catalan mystic, poet, and philosopher known for his unique "art of finding truth" (ars inveniendi veritatis), which aimed to support the Catholic faith and unify knowledge. His encyclopedic production, written in Catalan, Arabic, and Latin, covered various fields of medieval thought. The Llibre de contemplació en Déu is his principal theological work, reflecting his mystical experiences and his attempt to demonstrate Christian dogmas through rational discussion.21
