I'm sorry for my last e-mail. I made a mistake with other person. I have
investigated further and i have several facts about mr. Bonner that is still
ALIVE.

Mr Bonner is an specialist about the opus of Ramon Llull and a translater.
He was born in New York the 22 february of 1928. He's married and the name
of his wife is Eva. he has 3 sons.
In 1950 he licensed in Musical Theory and Composition at the harvard
University. After this he travelled to Paris to study at the Musical
Conservatory (1950-1954).

He lives in Mallorca from 1954. He's a specialist about Ramon Llull
(Raimundus Lullus) and has written several books about his life and opus.
Form 1977 he's Magister of the "Maioricensis Schola Lullistica". From 1996
to today he's the director of this organisation.

Some of his books are "Selected works of Ramon Llull (1232-1316) 2 vol.
1985", "A Ramon Llull reader" in 1993. He's also a very good botanic and has
published a very good guide to the Plants of the Balearic Islands.

Also he has made many traductions to the English from the following
languages: Occitan, Catalan, Spanish and the Medieval and Modern French.

He's Doctor Honoris Causa from the following Universities:
Albert-Ludwigs-Universität (1994), of Freiburg im Breisgau, and from the
University of Barcelona.

here are several facts of his life and i'm sorry for the last post. I speak
only a little english and if something is not clear please send me a mail.
