 Raimundus Lullus

b 1232/1233 as Raimundus Llullus (Ramon Llull) in Mallorca (E)—died near Mallorca 1316. Catalonian mystic, theologian, philosopher and poet. Llull, who wrote circa 270 works in Catalan, Arabic and Latin, is known for his «combining method» meant to unify all known knowledge. From Cusanus to Leibniz, his type of ‹think machine› method influenced great thinkers of the renaissance and modern age. One of his best-known works in present-time is «Ars magna generalis et ultima» (1501), also published in Frankfurt (D) in 1596.
