I48-R154-article-74552025-02-26T14:37:50Z The concept of Free Will in Saint Anselm and its relationship with God, as developed in the Monologion and Proslogion El concepto del Libre Albedrío en San Anselmo y su relación con el Dios, desarrollados en el Monologion y Proslogion Ríos, Joaquín Gabriel Free will Christian philosophy Saint Anselm Anselmian methodology Sola ratio Libre albedrío filosofía cristiana San Anselmo metodología anselmiana sola ratio This research aims to delve into the central concept of medieval Christian philosophy, namely, Free Will. In order to achieve this, it is pertinent to provide a brief introduction about what this concept implies for Western culture and philosophical thought in general. To accomplish this, a brief archaeology of the concept is presented,revealing traces that date back to Ancient Greece, more precisely to Aristotelian thought. It is argued that its origins stem from a different and earlier context, but it is the endeavor of medieval Christian thinkers that presents the novelty of the concept along with all the surrounding issues.With this in mind, the study is specifically situated within the extensive work of the philosopher of Canterbury, St. Anselm. Based on this, the Anselmian methodology known as sola ratio is demonstrated, along with its particular dynamics. Subsequently, a connection is established between Free Will and the concept of God. En esta investigación se pretende tomar el concepto central de la filosofía cristiana medieval, a saber, el Libre Albedrío. Para lo cual es pertinente presentar una breve introducción de lo que implica dicho concepto para la cultura occidental y el pensamiento filosófico en general; para ello, se expone una breve arqueología delmismo, mostrando que tiene unos vestigios que se remontan a la Grecia Antigua, más precisamente, al pensamiento aristotélico. Sosteniendo que sus orígenes se dan en un contexto distinto y más precedente, pero que es el esfuerzo de los pensadores cristianos del medioevo quienes presentan la novedad del concepto y toda la problemática que lo rodea.Con esto en mente, el trabajo se sitúa específicamente en la extensa obra del filósofo de Canterbury, San Anselmo. En base a ello se muestra la metodología anselmiana denominada sola ratio y la particular dinámica que conlleva; para luego relacionar el Libre Albedrío con el concepto Dios.
