Descansi en pau, Ramon Llull.  One of the most accomplished minds of the Middle Ages, especially in light of recent discoveries of some of his lost manuscripts which predated by many centuries various eclectic philosophical works, Llull was born in Majorca and is credited with creating the first major work of Catalan literature.  He was thought to have died on this date in 1315 in his early 80s after being stoned by an angry crowd in North Africa (although the date is now disputed).
