====Art and fiction==== Llull has appeared in the art and literature of the last century, especially in the genres of [[surrealism]], philosophical fantasy, and metafiction. [[Salvador Dalí]]'s alchemical thought was influenced by Ramon Llull and Dalí incorporated the diagrams from the Lullian ''Art'' into his work called ''Alchimie des Philosophes''.<ref>{{cite web |title=SALVADOR DALÍ: ALCHIMIE DES PHILOSOPHES |url=https://libmedia.willamette.edu/hfma/omeka/exhibits/show/salvador-dali--alchimie-des-ph |access-date=11 September 2021}}</ref> In 1937 [[Jorge Luis Borges]] wrote a snippet called "Ramon Llull's Thinking Machine" proposing the Lullian ''Art'' as a device to produce poetry.<ref>"Ramon Llull's Thinking Machine" in {{cite book |last1=Borges |first1=Jorge Luis |title=Selected Non-fictions |date=1999 |publisher=Viking |location=New York |pages=155–159}}</ref> Other notable references to Ramon Llull are: [[Aldous Huxley]]'s short story ''The Death of Lully'', a fictionalized account aftermath of Llull's stoning in Tunis, set aboard the Genoese ship that returned him to Mallorca.<ref>{{Cite book|last=Huxley|first=Aldous|title=Limbo|publisher=Chatto & Windus|year=1920}}</ref> [[Paul Auster]] refers to Llull (as Raymond Lull) in his memoir ''[[The Invention of Solitude]]'' in the second part, ''The Book of Memory''. Llull is also a major character in ''[[The Box of Delights]]'', a children's novel by poet [[John Masefield]].
