Consolation of Philosophy

A book that truly revolutionized my inner religious philosophy. Boethius' description and theory on evil as it relates to an all-good and loving God is one that has stuck with me throughout my life.

Its a text for school but a great version nonetheless... I'm holding onto this text even after my class is over

Awesome!

I got this a philosophy class and it was interesting to read the different theories. it was clear to read and read through without being too dry.

The Relihan translation emphasizes the philosophical depth of Boethius' Consolation, while faithfully and artfully reproducing the original beauty of his verse and the sublimity of its meaning. With this edition comes a detailed and informative introduction, along with exhaustive notes and a definitive glossary. Joel C. Relihan is one of the leading authorities in Boethian studies; his rendition of the Consolation is one that anyone serious about its study can hardly pass.

loved it very much

I ordered the Hackett edition, transkated by C. Relihan, received a Dover edition, translated by Richard H. Green.
