One of the densest but most insightful and admirable musings into the nature of God. Although often overshadowed by the weight of the ontological argument (which I admit, drew me to it in the first place), the earnestness of Anselm's search for God and the depth of his thinking stands foremost as the most memorable aspect of this "little book." I would highly recommend this reading to any who are interested in exploring with Anselm, deep philosophical and theological subjects in a concise and manageable short read. I warn however, that many passages, especially on the ontological argument (mainly chapters 2-3), may require rereading. I personally had to go back almost 10+ times to fully grasp his deep insight. Regardless of the philosophical flaws this particular rendition may have, it is still a formidable and important understanding to have! ( ) Anselm is recognized as revolutionary for the contemplative style of prayer that he wrote in a time when theology required something very different. Moreover, he provided a step in the direction toward a more rational (logical) approach to theology and faith. His Proslogion is not a prayer but instead instructive about the nature of God, man, sin, and faith. Chapter 14 and 17 are especially worth reading. His writing style, in the Latin, is remarkable for the word choice and structure, both emphasizing the depth of feeling. It's especially enjoyable Latin to read aloud. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
