Nicolau Pons Llinàs, a Jesuit from Artà, has died at the age of 98. In April 2024, he received the ARA Baleares at the Monti-sion monastery, with the serenity with which he faced the end: "Death doesn't frighten me. I can already be thankful for having reached 97." That conversation, which we now revisit as a tribute, traces a life marked by the Spanish Civil War, exile in Latin America, his sympathy for liberation theology, the conflict with the Society of Jesus, and his courageous denunciation of abuses within the Church.
