Rajmund Lull, Liber de acquisitione Terrae Sanctae – tłumaczenie i komentarz

Abstract

Ramon Lull’s (c. 1232–1316) oeuvre occupies an important place in the history of the late medieval European thought and literature. He was the author of almost 260 writings concerning philosophy, theology and other fields of knowledge. Among them there are six crusade treaties. Liber de Acquisitione Terrae Sanctae (1309) is one of his last works on this subject. It reflects the most important crusading ideas of the turn of the 13th and 14th centuries, but also contains an original postulate of combining the fighting against infidels with preaching. This article is the first Polish translation of the abovementioned treaty.
