Sažetak

After his conversion in 1263, the Catalan blessed, Ramon Llull (1232 – 1316), devoted his entire life to missionary work which was to involve evangelization (the conversion of infidels) and reevangelization (prompting Catholics to live their faith on a personal, social and ecclesial level). His outstanding literary works are in the function of this goal. He was at the same time a mystic, overflowing with love for God, and a scholar, confident in the power of logical conclusion, which he found to be applicable in the realm spirituality also. He was the first among romance authors of philosophical and scientific discourse to write in his vernacular. He wrote more than 250 works in the Catalan, Latin and Arabic languages. Though marked strongly by Franciscan spirituality, his mode of carrying out his missionary work, not without respect for the foreign culture and also by the use of the «accomodation method», makes him the forerunner of the great Jesuit spiritual figure Matteo Ricci and others. His constant activity for the common good of the church and society and his responsible attitude toward his vocation should serve as an example to the Catholic laity.
