St. Anselm: Proslogium, Monologium, An Appendix, In Behalf Of The Fool (1903) is a book written by Anselm, a medieval philosopher and theologian. The book contains three major works by Anselm, namely Proslogium, Monologium, and An Appendix, as well as a fourth work titled In Behalf Of The Fool.Proslogium is a work in which Anselm presents his famous ontological argument for the existence of God. The argument is based on the concept of God as the greatest conceivable being and the idea that existence is a necessary attribute of such a being.Monologium is a work in which Anselm presents a series of arguments for the existence of God based on the attributes of God such as goodness, truth, and justice. Anselm argues that these attributes can only be fully realized in a being that is perfect in every way, which he identifies as God.The Appendix is a short work in which Anselm responds to objections to his ontological argument for the existence of God. Anselm defends his argument by showing that the objections are based on misunderstandings of the nature of God.In Behalf Of The Fool is a work in which Anselm presents a dialogue between himself and a fool who denies the existence of God. Anselm responds to the fool's objections and presents arguments for the existence of God.Overall, St. Anselm: Proslogium, Monologium, An Appendix, In Behalf Of The Fool (1903) is a collection of works that provides a comprehensive overview of Anselm's philosophical and theological ideas.
