Prayers and Meditations of St. Anselm with the Proslogion Paperback - 1979
by Anselm of Aosta; Benedicta Ward (Translator); Introduction by Benedicta Ward
Anselm of Aosta wrote the majority of his Prayers and Meditations between 1070 and 1080 and created a tradition of intimate, intensely personal prayer that drastically altered the Christian attitude to private devotion. Anselm's ardor, literary brilliance, and scrupulous theology have secured him admiration. And, as Archbishop of Canterbury, his tussle with the early Norman kings earned him a place in secular history as well.
First line
The Prayers and Meditations themselves give little indication of the sources that formed them; unlike John of Fecamp, Anselm does not quote directly from other writers, and the very form of the prayers prevents direct reference to their teaching; they are the words of a man praying to God, not discussing ideas about Him.
