Summary
Anselmo of Canterbury: Proslogion | Why did God become a man | On truth
The book Proslogion / Why God became man / On truth by Anselm of Canterbury is one of the most important works of medieval theological and philosophical thought. This collection, divided into three parts, includes key texts that shed light on the fundamental principles of Christian rationality, laying the foundations for centuries of later development of European scholasticism.
Anselmo, known as the creator of the ontological proof of God's existence, writes in a dialogic form, uniting deep faith with philosophical logic. Njegova misao da vjera traži razumijevanje postala je geslom cjelokupne zapadnoeuropske teološke misli.
Posebno je važna rasprava O istini – prvi sustavni tekst te vrste na latinskom Zapadu – kao i djelo Zašto je Bog postao čovjekom, u kojem Anselmo nudi logički pristup razumijevanju otkupljenja. The Proslogion, perhaps the most famous part of the collection, remains the cornerstone of medieval metaphysics.
