The writings of Anselm of Canterbury (1033-1109) reveal how the
monastic mind, oscillating between hope and despair, was absorbed
in technical exercises rather than in religious emotions. Early on
monasticism had developed procedures for " ruminating on" the Bible
and the works of the Church Fathers. Applying the art of logic to
this theme, Anselm offers a denser version of monastic meditation
that constitutes a poetics of monastic literature.
