To mark this occasion, an international congress was held on 25-28 November 2007, titled Vision of God and Contemplation of the World. Interpretations of Ramon lull's ?»Liber contemplationis?«. The congress papers assembled in the present volume offer an informative survey of the Liber contemplationis in Deum (Catalan: Llibre de contemplacio en Deu), the most comprehensive and probably most significant work of Llull's. The Liber contemplationis comprises 366 chapters: one chapter for each day of the year, including one for the additional day of the leap year. The contents of the work have often been described as 'encyclopaedic'. Its aim, however, is not to offer a comprehensive account of all that is known about reality, but rather to recognise and describe reality in the context of contemplating God, knowing the articles of faith as well as attaining a virtuous life agreeable to God. Languages : German, English, Italian.
