Anselm

A Very Short Introduction

Beschreibung

Anselm was the outstanding philosopher-theologian of the Latin West between Augustine and the thirteenth century. This introduction examines the historical and political contexts that shaped his work and explains his central project of 'faith seeking understanding,' encompassing arguments for the existence of God and an account of God's nature.
