Book Proslogium and Monologium  Including in Behalf of the Fool by Gaunilon and Reply by Anselm

Download or read book Proslogium and Monologium Including in Behalf of the Fool by Gaunilon and Reply by Anselm written by Saint Anselm and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-08-09 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this compilation of St. Anselm's most important works, St. Anselm uses reason and philosophical argument to defend the Christian faith against non-believers. St. Anselm stresses the importance of our rational nature as humans, encouraging Christians that they should be "always ready to convince anyone who demands of them a reason of that hope which is in us." In his Proslogium, St. Anselm presents the Ontological Argument, an argument for the existence of God in which God is defined as, "a being than which none greater can be conceived." In Behalf of the Fool by Gaunilon, St. Anselm discusses a counterargument offered by his contemporary, Gaunilon, a Benedictine monk who questioned St. Anselm's definition of God. Monologium considers the attributes of God. This collection is a fine example of the intertwining of medieval philosophy and Christian apologetics. St. Anselm's argument for the existence of God influenced many philosophers in the early modern era and continues to influence thinkers today.

Book excerpt: In this brief work the author aims at proving in a single argument...the existence of God. The author writes as one who contemplates God, and seeks to understand what it is he believes. He originally titled this work "Faith Seeking Understanding." He finally named it Proslogium...simply, "A Discourse." Often called the second Augustine, St. Anselmus starts out from the same principle as the first; he holds that faith precedes all reflection and all discussion concerning religious things. Unbelievers, he says, strive to understand because they do not believe; whereas Christians, on the contrary, strive to understand because they do believe. Lamp Post is proud to present some of the finest Christian literary works of all time-writings that have affected the Church, touched the hearts of its leaders, and helped shape Christianity for two thousand years; timeless books that have endured and are deserving to be included among the Christian Classics.

  • Release : 2019-10-25
  • ISBN : 9781702607278
  • Pages : 326 pages

Download or read book St Anselm written by B A and published by . This book was released on 2019-10-25 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE present volume of St. Anselm's most important philosophical and theological writings contains: (1) The "Proslogium" (2) the "Monologium," (3) the "Cur Deus Homo," and (4) by way of historical complement, an Appendix to the "Monologium" entitled "In Behalf of the Fool" by Gaunilon, a monk of Marmoutiers. The "Proslogium" (which, though subsequent in point of time to the "Monologium," is here placed first, as containing the famous ontological argument), the "Monologium{" and the Appendix thereto were translated by Mr. Sidney Norton Deane, of New Haven, Conn.; the "Cur Deus Homo" was rendered by James Gardiner Vose, formerly of Milton, Conn., and later of Providence, R. I., and published in 1854 and 1855 in the "Bibliotheca Sacra," then issued at Andover, Mass., by Warren F. Draper. The thanks of the reading public are due to all these gentlemen for their gratuitous labors in behalf of philosophy.Welch's recent book "Anselm and His Work", by its accessibility, renders any extended biographical notice of Anselm unnecessary. We append, therefore, merely a few brief paragraphs from Weber's admirable "History of Philosophy" on Anselm's position in the world of thought, and we afterwards add (this, at the suggestion of Prof. George M. Duncan, of Yale University).a series of quotations regarding Anselm's most characteristic contribution to philosophy-the ontological argument-from Descartes, Spinoza, Locke, Leibnitz, Kant, Hegel, Dorner, Lotze, and Professor Flint. A bibliography also has been compiled. Thus the work will give full material and indications for the original study of one of the greatest exponents of Christian doctrine....
