Product Description
In the Proslogion, St. Anselm presents a philosophical argument for the existence of God. Anselm's proof, known since the time of Kant as the ontological argument for the existence of God, has played an important role in the history of philosophy and has been incorporated in various forms into the systems of Descartes, Leibniz, Hegel, and others.

Included in this edition of the Proslogion are Gaunilo's "A Reply on Behalf of the Fool" and St. Anselm's "The Author's Reply to Gaunilo." All three works are in the original Latin with English translation on facing pages. Professor Charlesworth's introduction provides a helpful discussion of the context of the Proslogion in the theological tradition and in Anselm's own thought and writing. ... Read more

For the philosophically minded
This is the work in which Anselm (a midieval church father) presents his ontological argument for the existence of God.It's one of the most debated philosophical arguments for the existence of God in history.If you're new to phiosophy, you'd better have someone you can ask about after reading this.It's really difficult to grasp.

But aside from that, Anselm has a lot of good things to say, and I found that I really liked his writing style.Whether for the sake of philosophy or theology, this is a good book. ... Read more

Product Description
This volume seeks to illustrate the difficulty of grasping some of Anselm's ideas by showing how his simple language is not always clear, and how some of his clear ideas are not always simple. ... Read more

Product Description
St. Anselm's prayers and meditations are to be read slowly, during times of peace. These devotions are intended to stir up within the reader the feelings of love and fear of God. When given honest consideration, they become a tool for self-examination. St. Anselm's meditations focus on the redemption of mankind. His prayers praise God for His glory and thank the Holy Spirit for His blessing, but they also ask for the strength to love and forgive our enemies during times of weakness. St. Anselm was known for his wisdom, and his commitment as a spiritual guide is evident in the five letters of spiritual counsel included in this volume. These letters contain some of St. Anselm's advice on life after death, religious conversion, sacred pilgrimage, and godly influence in the throne. This volume of St. Anselm's devotions also includes his Proslogion, a treatise concerning the existence of God in which he presents the Ontological argument. When broken into small segments, the Proslogion can be used for meditative purposes as well.

Excellent!
Saint Anselm (of Bec and Canterbury) and William the Conqueror (of Normandy and England) were near-contemporaries.Each radically redefined what it meant to be a European.This book explores that process.I foundit startling to read, but very satisfying. ... Read more
