Liber Chaos and Ramon Llull's Doctrine from Creation to the Generation of Material Substance in the Sublunar World

We propose to contextualize certain themes developed in the Lectura super figuras artis demonstrativae seu Liber chaos by Ramon Llull.  We realize the need to locate them within the framework of the major philosophical and scientific questions that characterized intellectual debate between the 13th and 14th centuries in the field of the natural philosophy. Here we will set aside the traditional, albeit obligatory, features of the construction of the ars lulliana, and the motif of apologetic and missionary inspiration, to focus on the way in which natural philosophy features as a vital aspect within the philosophical thinking of Ramon Llull, a characteristic already illuminatingly highlighted by Frances Amelia Yates in  «The Art of Ramon Lull».
