ANSELM. 195 accompanies it all along. When the pressure of the controversial motive is taken off, it works out one way in the direction of a mystical pantheism ; in the other, in the direction of rationalizing analysis. The hardened core of dogma is deserted by them both ; while these two forms or tendencies, the analytic and the mystical, divide between them all the later movements of speculative thought, — one way ma- terialism and science, the other way idealism and metaphysics.
Mystici...sm and Scepticism have been called oppo- site poles of the same thing. Mysticism claims to know divine truth by immediate intuition. Scep- ticism denies that such truth can be a matter of knowledge at all, properly speaking. Both agree in making it a subjective experience of the individual mind. Both these tendencies are found, more or less consciously, wherever religious belief is professed at all. But the period we deal with is fundamentally religious. It begins with the deeply fervent and mystic pietist, Anselm of Canterbury (1033-1109) ; it ends with Eckhart, father of German spiritual theology (1250-1329), the forerunner of Nicholas of Basel and of Tauler.
