St Anselm (1033-1109) was an Italian theologian and philosopher and
the Archbishop of Canterbury from 1093-1097. He is best known for
his work, Proslogion, in which he defends the Church and sets out
his philosophy and argument for the existence of God, now known as
the Ontological Argument. OA is now a commonly studied subject at
schools and universities, yet this critical, original treatise
outlining the OA is often misunderstood by readers. Here in the
Briefly text, the author guides the reader through Anselm's
argument concerning existence and whether it is an attribute of God
in the same way omnipotence, omniscience and benevolence are
believed to be. As such the argument is an a priori argument. It
does not rest on proving God's existence from the empirical realm
but on showing that God must exist logically (or that God's
non-existence is illogical).The main idea behind Anselm's argument
is that epistemology (what we know) IS ontology (what there is);
or, that if it is possible to conceive of X, then X must surely
exist. For further information on the series and the opportunity to
