Description

The Works of St. Anselm is a book by Sidney Norton Deane, first published in 1903. This volume presents English translations of Anselm of Canterbury’s foundational theological and philosophical texts — Proslogium, Monologium, and Cur Deus Homo — along with appendices including Gaunilo’s In Behalf of the Fool, Anselm’s Apologetic, a survey of Anselm’s philosophy, and later critiques of his ontological argument. Deane, a British scholar from the early 20th century, brought clarity and scholarly rigor to these medieval Latin masterpieces, enhancing accessibility for modern readers. His translations and accompanying commentary illuminate Anselm’s exploration of faith and reason, the nature and existence of God, and the doctrine of atonement. This edition played an important role in making Anselm’s work more widely available in the English-speaking world, influencing the study of scholasticism, medieval theology, and philosophical argumentation.
