Most of the work carried out during the last forty years on the literary aspects of the work of Ramon Llull has its starting point in two articles that Robert Pring-Mill published in Catalan in 1967 and 1976. Llull's novels, poetry, dialogues and collections of proverbs use the resources of rhetoric and fiction in order to advance his programme of propagating the Christian faith throughout the world by mean of his Art. This paper illustrates the particular way in which Llull placed literature at the service of philosophy, that is to say, as Pring-Mill reminds us, transforming literature into what in the Middle Ages was called science
