The Theatre of the Fondazione Collegio San Carlo in Modena will be the venue for a series of short talks that aim to relate the figure of Llull to a specific area of the Humanities. They will be given by different Catalan and Italian specialists, such as Elena Pistolesi (University of Modena and Reggio Emilia), Marta M. M. Romano (University of Palermo), Lola Badia (University of Barcelona) and Simone Sari (Centre Ramon Llull – Barcelona).
Additionally, the day will be a chance to learn more about the bequest of the Estense Library in Modena, which houses, as its most important documents, an important corpus of pseudo-Llullian alchemical texts of the first order; a testimony of Llull’s Ars amativa (Tree of Love); and two translations from the Veneto area of the Book of Wonders. These texts, which are important for the history of Italian Llullism, will be displayed for the first time in a documentary exhibition at the Estense Library.
Attached, is the full programme of the University of Modena’s Llullian symposium.
