Geo Siegwart, 'Gaunilo referiert Anselm. Aus dem
Tagesgeschäft des Rekonstrukteurs' in Kriterion - Journal of Philosophy, 27 (2013) 1-29.
Abstract: The monk Gaunilo opens the vigorous disputation with Anselm by describing the infamous proof in the second chapter of the Proslogion. The following paper offers a detailed logical reconstruction of Gaunilo's account of Anselm's argument, thus making explicit the reasoning of Anselm in the view of Gaunilo. It will serve two purposes. Firstly it provides an easily understood example for the use of logic to interpret a nontrivial philosophical text. Secondly it reveals the reasons and the concepts involved in the argument, thereby indicating further argumentative and semantic tasks.
