The meditatio theme sends us directly to the spiritual framework of the monasteries where St. Anselm of Canterbury is one of the most relevant representatives in the High Middle Ages. As a Benedictine monk, Anselm acknowledges and lives fully the return to the self as introspection: recollecting oneself, in silence, in search of God. Distancing oneself from the world (a type of contemptus mundi) and love for God’s kingdom constitute the most indicative signs of happiness that may be enjoyed by a monk in the 11th century. One of the first aspects of meditation is the insertion within the conquest of the inner self as a self-acknowledgement of the soul to seek God assumed by faith. Current essay will discuss meditation within the context of monastic spirituality in Anselm’s time and the model of meditative prayer as elaborated in (1) the Proslogion, a treatise known to be a meditation on the reason of faith and (2) the Third Meditation, dealing with the redemption of the human stance. It will be demonstrated that meditation and contemplation, according to Anselm, have their full meaning within the salvation mysteries. |

Como monje benedictino, él reconoce y vive plenamente la reflexión sobre sí mismo entendida como introspección: se trata del ejercicio del retiro para, en silencio, buscar a Dios. El distanciarse del mundo (un tipo de contemptus mundi) y el amor del reino de Dios constituyen los signos más indicativos de la felicidad que puede ser experimentada por un monje del siglo XI. Uno de los primeros aspectos de la meditación es la conquista del yo interior como auto reconocimiento del alma para la búsqueda de Dios a través de la fe. Este trabajo se centrará en la discusión sobre la meditación en el contexto de la espiritualidad monástica de la época de Anselmo de Canterbury y en el modelo de oración meditativa elaborado sobre (1) el Proslogion, un tratado conocido por ser una meditación de la razón de la fe; y (2) la Tercera Meditación, que considera la redención de la condición humana. El objetivo del trabajo es mostrar que la meditación y la contemplación, según San Anselmo, alcanzan su completo significado por medio del misterio de la salvación. application/pdf application/pdf http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/petm/article/view/7120 10.34096/petm.v20197120 spa eng Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/petm/article/view/7120/6364 http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/petm/article/view/7120/6365 Patristica et Mediævalia; Vol 40 No 1 (2019) Patristica et Mediævalia; Vol. 40 Núm. 1 (2019) 2683-9636 0325-2280 meditation contamplation monastic theology prayer meditación contemplación teología monástica oración Meditation According to Anselm of Canterbury La meditación según Anselmo de Canterbury info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion http://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=patris&d=7120_oai |
