Abstract

A course, last taught in the Fall of 2010, devoted entirely to St. Anselm of Canterbury. The course discusses not only Anselm's famous "ontological argument" and other arguments for the existence of God, but also his views on truth, free choice, moral psychology, logic, time and modality, as well as theological topics like original sin, the Trinity, the Incarnation, virgin birth and redemption. There are two files associated with this course: (1) A complete set of lecture notes, and (2) a full set of handouts distributed throughout the course.
