Saint Anselm of Canterbury
The most important Christian theologian in the West between Augustine and Thomas Aquinas. His two great accomplishments are his Proslogium (in which he undertakes to show that Reason requires that men should believe in God), and his Cur Deus Homo? (in which he undertakes to show that Divine Love responding to human rebelliousness requires that God should become a man).
The page's posts here are mostly the translated words of Anselm. Words in square brackets [ ] or double quotes are often the words of others such as biographers, translators, philosophers, medieval scholars, or the Anselmian mediators of this page.
