Description: Title: The Consolation of Philosophy: With an Introduction and Contemporary Criticism Author: Boethius, Anicius Publisher: Ignatius Press Binding: Paperback Pages: 278 Dimensions: 7.90h x 5.20w x 0.90d Product Weight: 0.85 lbs. Language: English ISBN: 9781586174378 Written in the sixth century, The Consolation of Philosophy was one of the most popular and influential works of the Middle Ages. Boethius composed the masterpiece while imprisoned and awaiting the death sentence for treason. The Christian author had served as a high-ranking government official before falling out of favor with Roman Emperor Theodoric, an Arian. In the Consolation, Boethius explores the true end of life-knowledge of God-through a conversation with Lady Philosophy. Part prose, part poetry, the work combines Greek philosophy and Christian faith to formulate answers to some of life's most difficult and enduring questions. Ships Fast From The USA!
