It's Ramon Llull Week ...

... and Liam has exhorted us to get our Llull on, so hampered though I am by an almost total lack of knowledge of Ramon Llull, I've managed to come up with one bit of completely unsubstantiated Lull-matter.

It's said Llull got sassy with Duns Scotus .......

There is an amusing story about his [Llull's] attendance, when at the Sorbonne, of a class taught by Duns Scotus then a young man fresh from triumphs at Oxford. It seems that Scotus became annoyed by the old man in his audience who persisted in making signs of disagreement with what was being said. As a rebuke, Scotus asked him the exceedingly elementary question, "What part of speech is `Lord'?" Lull immediately replied, "The Lord is no part, but the whole." (link)
