    About this ebook

    The "Proslogion" is a prayer or meditation, written by the medieval cleric Saint Anselm of Canterbury in 1077–1078, serving to reflect on the attributes of God in order to explain how God can possess seemingly contradictory qualities. This meditation is considered to be the first-known philosophical formulation that sets out the ontological argument for the existence of God. Ontology is sometimes referred to as the science of being and belongs to the major branch of philosophy known as metaphysics.
