MAZZOLI, Martina E.. The Signification of Freedom in Anselm of Canterbury’s Moral Trilogy. Scripta Mediaevalia [online]. 2021, vol.14, n.2, pp.129-141. ISSN 1851-8753.

It’s evident the importance that the theme of Freedom has had among Christian philosophers. In the XIth century, Saint Anselm develops this theme in the articulation of three treatises: De veritate, De libertate arbitrii and De casu diaboli; them conforms a moral trilogy that constitutes one of the fundamental bases of it’s corpus doctrinale. Following the research performed by Enrique Corti in his book To be in the truth, this work analyzes the configuration of Anselmian thought around the theme of freedom in close connection with the exam of truth, justice and evil.

Keywords : freedom; Anselm of Canterbury; truth; justice; evil.
