ABSTRACT
Anselm's agenda to demonstrate the beauty of the faith recurs throughout much of his writing. This chapter deals with Anselm and the student to consider the nature of truth and reflects on how it fits into the proportioned order of harmonious reality. The discussion about the nature and definition of truth has so far required Anselm and his student to consider rectitude, moral necessity, fittingness, the divine nature and the relationship between the divine nature and human nature in participation. Anselm's definition of free will forces one to wonder how the freedom is possible in a system that makes human will subservient to divine will. But there is a more immediate cause for Anselm's curiosities into the fall of the Devil and the origin of evil. Anselm's model of reality was sufficiently comprehensive that when he wrote about truth, free will or any other matter his thoughts unfolded in a way that the explanation and application incorporated all humanity.
