Ramon Llull's Artistic works are characterized by paratextual elements: additional alphabets, diagrams and figures, but also philosophical glosses and annotations, formulas or simple words, and even praises of Llull himself. The paratext seems to be strictly linked to doctrinal elaboration and thus becomes instrumental in disseminating the Art. Some paratextual forms show a philological relation to the testimonies which contain them, and this allows us to apply the instruments typical of textual criticism and of the history of tradition to the paratext itself. It is also possible to trace the development of those elements - a development due to specific interests which the Lullian Art aroused within the scientific community throughout different periods. Starting from a sample of paratextual material (chosen from a selection of codices analyzed during our years of study and research), this paper intends to identify the characteristics of the Lullian paratext offering a preliminary classification by distinguishing between authentic elements produced by Llull himself (and added to his texts) and those produced by the Lullian school (and Lullism at large) and preserved in a wide manuscript tradition. The selected samples demonstrate how the concept of paratext - within the Medieval book, and within Lullian manuscripts in this specific case - is variable and dynamic, and avoids fixed classifications. The Lullian paratext - if we can define it this way - is an open element, with many typologies and diverse levels - such as a work due to the copyist or to a later hand. It might seem, thus, that by selecting and cataloguing those elements, significant knowledge can be added that may be useful for retracing the reception and the fortune of the authentic thought of Llull and of the many expressions of Lullism.
