Summary:

"This volume explores important aspects of the life and writings of Anselm of Canterbury. His is a world in which the created order with its hierarchies of natures and roles manifests a divine order that proceeds from the divine nature. Individual chapters examine Anselm's understanding of rectitude, truth, justice, and redemption, the relationship of free will and grace and of faith and reason, whether and how we can speak of or reject the divine, Anselm's approach to death, his understanding of the superiority of monasticism in the social and spiritual order, and the role that angels play in his metaphysical and theological arguments"-- Provided by publisher.
