This lecture discusses key ideas from the Medieval philosopher, theologian, and Benedictine monk Anselm of Canterbury's dialogue, On Freedom of Choice (the second work in a trilogy including On Truth and On The Fall of the Devil)

It focuses specifically on the distinction that he makes between two different senses of "will" (voluntas). One of these is will-as-instrument, or as the faculty of the will. The other is will-as-use, the act or willing, or the use of that instrument or faculty. Making this distinction allows explanation of how our will could be strong enough not to be mastered by temptation, and yet give in to temptation.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the Medieval philosopher, theologian, and Benedictine monk Anselm of Canterbury's dialogue, On Freedom of Choice (the second work in a trilogy including On Truth and On The Fall of the Devil)

It focuses specifically on his discussion of how a person who possesses rectitude or rightness of will (rectitudo voluntatis) can abandon that rectitude. According to Anselm, a person cannot be forced to do so, although they can be placed in a situation of forced choice or difficulty, and then willingly abandon that rectitude by choosing something else instead of it

This lecture discusses key ideas from the Medieval philosopher, theologian, and Benedictine monk Anselm of Canterbury's dialogue, On Freedom of Choice (the second work in a trilogy including On Truth and On The Fall of the Devil)

It focuses specifically on his discussion of what he calls "slavery to sin", i.e. the inability to not sin or do wrong in a person, when rectitude of will is missing from their will. The question he is grappling with is how a person, while being free, can make themself into a slave or servant of sin.

It focuses specifically on his discussion of rectitude or rightness of will (rectitudo voluntatis) and its relation with freedom of choice (libertas arbitrii). Anselm has the teacher and student in the dialogue sort through for possibilities for why rightness of will was given to rational beings (i.e. humans and the angels)
