Abstract:
Francesc Eiximenes (1327-1409), a Franciscan friar and a leading author of Catalan literature, gave counsel to the Catalan kings of Aragon, the Avignon papacy, and government officials of the city of Valencia. He also wrote religious treatises for lay people and for the clergy. He rejected anti-Jewish violence and became more tolerant of Jews and Judaism as he grew older.
