’... provides a much needed reference work for anyone wanting seriously to understand and think about the Proslogion ... he does a fine job when it comes to giving readers a sense of Anselm in his historical context.’ New Blackfriars ’...a very stimulating and thought-provoking study. Any Anselm scholar”historians, philosophers and theologians alike”will profit from reading it. It is rich in insights and lucidly written throughout; the reasoning is always clear.’ The Saint Anselm Journal ’Logan's book offers a clearly argued, interesting, historically sensitive reading of Anselm's Proslogion. ... gives the reader a sense of the many and varied reactions to the Proslogion.’ Speculum ’... it is undeniable that Logan has written a history of Anselm’s argument that serves as a foundation for future studies to build upon. ... Logan’s work is a valuable contribution to medieval studies which corrects many misunderstandings and caricatures of Anselm that deserve to be exposed. ... Moreover, Logan’s work is a fine introduction to the theology and logic of the Proslogion as well as a needed analysis of its reception since the Middle Ages.’ Journal of Theological Studies
