Saint Anselm (1033-1109) was a Benedictine monk, Christian philosopher, and scholar who is recognized for many intellectual accomplishments, including his application of reason in exploring the mysteries of faith and for his definition of the theology as "faith seeking understanding". As a Doctor of the Church, Saint Anselm's thinking and writing about the nature of faith and of God calls our scholars to seek out His continuing inspiration in the Humanities and Arts.
