This study provides a broad analysis of Anselm of Canterbury’s theological method through a study of his Monologion. The author argues that Anselm’s theology is often oversimplified and examines his various philosophical and theological contributions.
This center consists of theological developments involving the adoption of Peter Lombard’s Sentences as a theological textbook, the conciliar decisions of Lateran IV, and a shared Aristotelian philosophical background of Western trinitarian theology.
