ALERT!! ALERT!! YOU HAVE EXCEEDED THE FREAKINESS INDEX. SLOWLY PUT YOUR MOUSE DOWN AND MOVE AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER.

For some reason, the game thinks that Anomen was killed in such a way that your in-party spellcasters are unable to Raise him, even though his picture is still in the party. Anomen's picture disappears in the Temple because the game thinks that he isn't in the building (this happens with all stores & Temples if the party is separated).

This "way" in which Anomen was killed may have been that, as you said, he was taken down to exactly -1 hitpoints, and the games doesn't know what to do with him. If killing blow (or other damage) takes them down to less than -10 hp, it's game over for them: They took so much damage that they were essentially dismembered, beyond any magic to restore them to life. If they only got knocked down to somewhere between -9 and 0, they can be brought back. But, perhaps, the game gets confused at -10.

Hit Ctrl-Space to bring up the cheat window, and type
CLUAConsole:CreateItem("rods03")
into it. Make sure it's EXACTLY as you see it above. Identify that sucker, use it on Anomen, and throw it away. If it doesn't work, then you've lost Anomen for good. Boot him from the party and get a substitute, because he was killed beyond resurrection.

Move along, citizens. Nothing to see here.
