Om forfatteren

Anselm of Canterbury, far and away the best philosopher of the eleventh century, described his philosophical work as faith seeking understanding. Following Augustine of Hippo, he argues that without faith he could not find the convincing rational arguments that establish understanding and that vis mere convincing evidence of a contradiction to the faith would invalidate any argument. Nonetheless, faith with understanding is better than faith alone. He avoids the citation of authorities in his writings, using argument alone to establish his points (something for which his teacher Lanfranc chided him), and he insists on answering every possible objection to his views with clear reasons against it. He is but little interested in the task of reconciling authorities or finding a unity of doctrine in the thought of the various Church Fathers. However, Augustine is, in fact, his constant inspiration, providing him even with the dialogue form he uses in his works. Anselm's thought is rooted in dialectical and grammatical technique. He is particularly skilled at resolving difficulties by uncovering the true logical form of expressions with misleading grammatical forms. His writings are without exception a feast for the analytical mind, yet accessible even to a beginner. (Bowker Author Biography) vis mindre

One of the densest but most insightful and admirable musings into the nature of God. Although often overshadowed by the weight of the ontological argument (which I admit, drew me to it in the first place), the earnestness of Anselm's search for God and the depth of his thinking stands foremost as the most memorable aspect of this "little book." I would highly recommend this reading to any who are interested in exploring with Anselm, deep philosophical and theological subjects in a concise and manageable short read. I warn however, that many passages, especially on the ontological argument (mainly chapters 2-3), may require rereading. I personally had to go back almost 10+ times to fully grasp his deep insight. Regardless of the philosophical flaws this particular rendition may have, it is still a formidable and important understanding to have!… (mere)
