Choose another writer in this calendar: by name: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Boethius (c. 480 - c.524) Roman philosopher, theologian, and statesman, whose translations of and commentaries on Aristotle deeply influenced the thought in the medieval Latin West. Boethius' best known work is De consolatione philosophiae (Consolation of Philosophy), composed in prison while he was waiting for execution. It was one of the most widely read books in medieval times, after the Vulgate Bible Old age came suddenly by suffering speed, And grief then bade her government begin: My hair untimely white upon my head, And I a worn out bone-bag hunting with flesh. Death would be blessing if it spared the glad But heeded invocations from the wretch. (from The Consolation of Philosophy , trans. by Victor Watts) Anicius Manlius Severinus Boethius was born into the distinguished Christian family of the Anicii. A member of it, Olybrius, had been emperor in 472, four years before the last emperor, Romulus Augustulus, was deposited. Boethius' father was a consul. After he died, Boethius was raised by the senator and historian Quintus Aurelius Memmius Symmachus. Later he married Symmachus' daughter, Rusticana. Little is known of Boethius' life. The oldest known biography of Boethius was written by Cassiodorus, his senatorial colleague. It is possible that he was born in Rome, completed there his schooling, and continued his education in Alexandria. In 510 Boethius became consul under Theodoric the Great (d. 526), the Ostrogothic king of Italy. In his court in Ravenna Theodoric gathered together skilled administrators, Germanic poets, and Latin men of letters. About 520 Boethius rose to the position of

47. Notes And Questions For Boethius, The Consolation Of Philosophy Notes and Questions for boethius (475525), The Consolation of Philosophy (524). The Consolation was written while boethius was in prison awaiting execution. http://www.virtualsalt.com/lit/boethius.htm

Virtual Salt Notes and Questions for Boethius (475-525), The Consolation of Philosophy Robert Harris January 11, 1999 Overview The Consolation was written while Boethius was in prison awaiting execution. The work is cast in the form of a dialog with Philosophy, who explains to him the true nature of happiness, why the wicked appear to prosper while the good suffer, and many other difficulties. By the end, Boethius sees clearly the goodness and sovereignty of God. (Section numbers follow those in Boethius, The Consolation of Philosophy , New York: Penguin, 1969.) Things to Think About as You Read 1. Boethius constructs a harmony between classical and Christian ideas about God and human nature, showing in part the unity of truth and philosophy (classical and Christian wisdom being so similar) and in part the support that classical philosophers provide for Christian truth. 2. Similarly, Boethius carefully bases his argument on reason rather than Christian revelation, to show first how reasonable a base Christianity ultimately rests upon and second to show that there are rational, intellectually satisfying answers to the sufferings of the human condition. (Perhaps this work could be considered as "pre-evangelism" for intellectuals.) 3. Boethius relies substantially on Platonic and Neoplatonic thought. If you are familiar with the ideas of Plato, look for echoes here.

THE GEOFFREY CHAUCER PAGE Boethius The Consolation of Philosophy The Consolation of Philosophy , by Anicius Manlius Severinus Boethius (ca. 480-584); written in prison while he awaited execution by Theodoric, ruler of Rome, was the most popular and influential philosophical work, especially among laymen, from the sixth to the eighteenth centuries. Chaucer translated it into English, as did King Alfred before him, and Queen Elizabeth I a couple of centuries after him. It deeply influenced Chaucer's work, especially in the Knight's Tale and Troilus and Criseyda ; see the introduction to Boece in the Riverside Chaucer (pp. 395-97). Boethius was author of a number of other popular and authoritative works; including translations and commentaries on a variety of topics. Chaucer was aware of some of these works; in the Nun's Priest's Tale , Boethius' treatise on music, De musica , is cited (VII.3294). For good introductory materials and a complete translation, see the edition in the admirable University of Virginia e-text series For brief selections of particular interest to the student of Chaucer see the following: Book I, Metrum 1

Home Articles Games Portals ... Contact Us Philosopher of the Month November 2002 - Boethius Boethius must rate as one of history's most overlooked philosophers. Yet he is arguably one of the key figures in the pantheon of Western philosophy. His work The Consolation of Philosophy has been described as the single most important work in the West in medieval and early Renaissance Christianity. Bertrand Russell himself said that Boethius was a great man free from the superstitious restraints of his age: 'He would have been remarkable in any age; in the age in which he lived, he is utterly amazing.' Also, for centuries Aristotle was known in the West only from two of Boethius' own translations. Professor of Philosophy at the University of Glasgow, Richard Stalley said that the work of Boethius was of profound importance: 'He is extremely significant historically, not least because he was instrumental in transmitting ancient thought to the medieval world and through that to the modern.' Furthermore, Boethius was an authority in the field of music-theoretical matters. Medieval authors from around the ninth century onwards considered his

Anicius Manlius Torquatus Severinus Boethius Im Laufe seiner langjährigen Forschung ist Boethius vermutlich mehrmals nach Byzanz gereist, wo er gute Beziehungen zu mehreren Personen hatte. Seine Studien wurden auch von Kaiser Justinian mit großem Interesse verfolgt. Die Wiedererrichtung der Hagia Sophia geht auf das Bestreben zurück, einen Raum zu schaffen, in dem die Gesänge optimal ihre Wirkung entfalten konnten. So lassen sich die Besonderheiten in den architektonischen Maßen und diverse Einzelheiten dieses sakralen Raumes erklären. Um sein Wissen zu vervollkommnen, ist Boethius auch nach Alexandria, dem Studienort seiner Jugendzeit gereist. Seine Forschungs-Reisen führten ihn auch nach Griechenland und vor allem über den vorderasiatischen Raum über Persien bis nach Indien. 537 kam Papst Vigilius an die Macht. Er muss Boethius und die Gruppe um ihn herum eine geraume Zeit mit Misstrauen beobachtet haben. Das, was dieser forschte und tat, passte nicht in sein päpstliches, christlich-dogmatisches Denken. So beschloss er, Boethius’ Forschung zu stoppen und diesen in kirchentreue Bahnen umzulenken. Als das nicht gelang, griff Papst Vigilius zu drastischen Maßnahmen und ließ Boethius, seine Familie und die Menschen um ihn herum etwa Herbst 546 gefangen nehmen. Während seiner Haft wurde Boethius mehr der weniger gezwungen, eine Trostschrift zu verfassen, in der er eigenhändig die offizielle Geschichtsversion mit der Verurteilung durch Theoderich bestätigen sollte. Boethius hat diesen Befehl als Gelegenheit ergriffen, seinem letzten Werk „De consolatione philosophiae“ eine zweite geheime Lesart einzugeben, um somit die wahren geschichtlichen Begebenheiten sowie Hinweise zu den Gesängen der Nachwelt zu hinterlassen.

Printer-vriendelijke versie Niet aangemeld Help Andere talen: Deutsch English Polski Boethius Boethius (ca. ) was een Romeins filosoof, schrijver en politicus. Boethius was een zeer ontwikkeld man, zeker voor de moeilijke tijden waarin hij leefde. Hij stamde uit een oud Romeins geslacht de Anicii. Jong wees geworden, werd hij opgevoed door Q. Aurelius Memmius Symmachus, een rijke christelijke erfgenaam uit een vooraanstaand heidens geslacht, wiens dochter Rusticiana hij later huwde. Hij had een goede kennis van het Grieks en heeft wellicht in het oosten gestudeerd. Hij was bezig aan een complete vertaling van Plato en Aristoteles , maar zijn vroegtijdige dood maakte daar een eind aan. Als neoplatoons filosoof en aanhanger van de Ariaanse kerk was hij bij de Katholieken niet erg geliefd. In 510 werd Boethius consul , hoewel die titel weinig meer inhield. Onder Theodorik de Grote was hij magister officiorum en diende hem trouw. Toen de koning echter in een geschil met de Byzantijnse keizer geraakte werd Boethius verdacht van ontrouw, in het gevang gegooid en terechtgesteld. Zijn schoonvader Symmachus werd kort daarna terechtgesteld. Zijn Vertroosting der Filosofie is waarschijnlijk geschreven in het gevang in afwachting van zijn oordeel.
