LLull

Llibre de gentil e los tres savis
«Book of the Gentile and the Three Wise Men»
This book was first written in Arabic between 1274 and 1276 and then translatedinto Catalan. In it, three wise men (a Jew, a Muslim and a Christian) debate witha Gentile (non believer) who needs to say who is right. The singularity of theplot is that the three wise men return to their countries even more convinced oftheir own faith, while the reader finishes the book without knowing who isvictorious. In the passage reproduced, the author tells of his encounter, next to afountain, with a lady called “Philosophy of love”. Stands out the author’sdecided choice for the harmonic integration between love and reason in a“Living Art” in which science serves the good.
