Abstracts

The article deals with the so-called ontological argument for the existence of God in the version originally presented by Saint Anselm of Canterbury in his Proslogion. Some quiestion concerning the interpretation of the argument are pondered over, and an attempt at formalizing the argument is made. It is suggested that at least some passages in the original formulation of the argument may be variantly interpreted. Nevertheless - it is concluded - none of the interpretative variants constitutes a decisive argument for the existence of God.
