This is the second in a new series of quarterly lectures and discussions, focused on understanding philosophers within their historical context, hosted by the Frank Weyenberg Library (in Mequon, WI).

This talk focuses on the interconnections between the medieval philosopher, theologian, bishop, and monk - Anselm of Canterbury - wider events going on within the Catholic Church, and the expansionist and dynastic politics of the Normans.

Sessions yet to come will include:
Rene Descartes - in August
Hannah Arendt - in November

The previous session, in February, focused on Aristotle

The intro music for this is Antonin Dvorak, Czech Suite, Op. 39 - I. Praeludium, and is available in the public domain at https://musopen.org/music/2116/antonin-dvorak/czech-suite-op-39/
