### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Poor old Boethius
  

*by K***T on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 August 2001*

The wheel of fortune... you can't rely on luck to help you through the tricky times. And Boethius certainly had his, falling foul of the Emperor and being banished to the edge of Empire to be tortured to death. While imprisoned he wrote the consolation... Lady Philosophy comes to Boethius to cheer him up with some second-hand Aristotle and indifferent poetry, although in retrospect a cake and a chisel would probably have been more useful.Widely translated over the ages by Henry VIII among others this book has had a far-reaching influence down the years. Interestingly Boethius was a Christian but turned to philosophy rather than religion when he was up against it.An absorbing read... And one that you'll remember for many years.
