41. Boethius: Consolation Of Philosophy boethius is now convinced that there is no evil in the world, but is now puzzled by this problem of the relation between God s Providence and human free http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/source/con-phil.html

B OETHIUS THE CONSOLATION OF PHILOSOPHY SELECTIONS Fate and Providence (Book IV, Prose 6) "It remains," I said, "for you to explain this apparent injustice I'm suffering now (that is, Boethius' imprisonment, torture, and impending execution)." "The question you're asking," Lady Philosophy replied with a smile, "is the grandest of all mysteries, one which can never be explained completely to the human intellect, for, when one problem is removed, many more arise to take its place, and arise and arise unless the mind is keen and awake. For the problem you raise touches on a number of difficult questions: the simplicity of Providence, the nature of Fate, the unpredictability of Chance, divine and human knowledge, predestination, and free will. You know the difficulty involved in these questions; nevertheless, I will try to answer them in the short space allotted us." Then, as though she were beginning for the first time, Philosophy said, "The coming-into-being of all things, and the entire course that changeable things take, derive their causes, their order, and their forms from the unchanging mind of God. The mind of God set down all the various rules by which all things are governed while still remaining unchanged in its own simplicity. When the government of all things is seen as belonging to the simplicity and purity of the divine mind, we call it 'Providence.' When this government of all things is seen from the point of view of the things that change and move, that is, all things which are governed, from the very beginning of time we have called this 'Fate.' We can easily see that Providence and Fate are different if we think over the power of discernment each has. Providence is the divine reason, the divine

42. Bell End: Boethius's Wheel So boethius wrote about 1500 years ago*. And as far as I can see, it still holds true today, on a personal level and on a national/global level. http://doogalbellend.blogspot.com/2007/11/boethius-wheel.html

skip to main skip to sidebar Bell End "quite amusing and drastically geeky at the same time" Saturday, November 24, 2007 "It's my belief that history is a wheel. 'Inconstancy is my very essence,' says the wheel. Rise up on my spokes if you like but don't complain when you're cast back down into the depths. Good times pass away, but then so do the bad. Mutability is our tragedy, but it's also our hope. The worst of times, like the best, are always passing away." So Boethius wrote about 1500 years ago*. And as far as I can see, it still holds true today, on a personal level and on a national/global level. Gordon Brown may have said "no more boom and bust" but the fact is he always had very little control over the economic cycle. It's human nature to over extend ourselves during the good times, thus driving the boom to unsustainable levels then doing the opposite during the downturn. And it looks to me like the 10 years of boom is just about to come to an end. Interesting times. *I'm not particularly well read, I picked up on this quote when a tramp shouted it at Tony Wilson in "24 Hour Party People". It's then alluded to when Wilson is forced to present "Wheel of Fortune" in order to make ends meet. comments: Post a Comment Newer Post Older Post Home Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom) Bell End Home Blog Archive April What I hate about London A world without money lenders March ...

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.

In this case, the heuristic aimed at an unknown with the characteristics assigned to it by Christian faith and Neoplatonic metaphysics. Neither substance nor relation is intended as a primordial characteristic of the source of all. The adequacy of the terms employed in the Opuscula sacra is verified not by cosmological demonstration, as if the terms were univocal with the causes of created beings, but strictly in terms of what is required in order to preserve the reality of Christian salvation adsumptione , and the truth of the Scriptural witness to the events of salvation history. For Boethius, God is not verified as the cause being and goodness and in creatures in the same way as the distinctions and unity of the Persons of the Trinity are verified. The former is demonstrated by a principle of preeminence, the latter by advertence to the authority of Scripture and the rule of faith.

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

Tester CE ), was son of Flavius Manlius Boetius, after whose death he was looked after by several men, especially Memmius Symmachus. He married Symmachus's daughter, Rusticiana, by whom he had two sons. All three men rose to high honours under Theodoric the Ostrogoth, but Boethius fell from favour, was tried for treason, wrongly condemned, and imprisoned at Ticinum (Pavia), where he wrote his renowned The Consolation of Philosophy . He was put to death in 524, to the great remorse of Theodoric. Boethius was revered as if he were a saint and his bones were removed in 996 to the Church of S. Pietro in Ciel d'Oro, and later to the Cathedral. The tower in Pavia where he was imprisoned is still venerated. Boethius was author of Latin translations of Aristotle, commentaries on various philosophical works, original works on logic, five books on music, and other works. His The Consolation of Philosophy Theological Tractates are also included in this volume.

Its focus is the Alfredian adaptation of Boethius's Consolation of Philosophy , and its work will lead in the first instance to a comprehensive new edition of this text, to be published by Oxford University Press. The project is based at Oxford University and is funded by a five-year research grant from the Arts and Humanities Research Board. The early sixth-century Latin work of Boethius known as the De Consolatione Philosophiae The other major task is to reconstruct the intellectual and cultural context in which the two versions were produced. The possible use, by Alfred and his circle, of Latin commentaries on Boethius as a source for explanatory information and philosophical interpretation has been much canvassed, but none of the extant commentaries has ever been published and they have been little studied in their entirety. The project will be examining the evidence of manuscripts containing the text of Boethius and commentaries on him, both to assess their possible influence on the Old English work and to establish the context in which Anglo-Saxons were interpreting the text.

Gohlman and myself, gathered at Attica Correctional Facility at the invitation of the State University of New York's University College of Arts and Sciences at Geneseo and the Genesee Community College's education program. Ronald Herzman and William Cook noted in their introduction to the Conference, titled Learning in Exile: Dante in Attica, held to commemorate the Attica Prison Riot of 1971, that this was a unique event in the histories of prisons and academia. The four of us talked on different aspects of Dante to an audience of Blacks, Hispanics and Native Americans for the most part, a third of whom were murderers. We were searched at the entry of the prison. We walked to the lecture hall through a multitude of gates that had to be specially unlocked by guards. It was as if we were in the landscape of Dante's poem. My paper, "Boethius the Prisoner, Dante the Exile," was the second to be given. As you read its words, imagine yourself not in your comfortable study chair but instead as in its audience, composed of young "lifers," who are in the prison's college program, in a room with bars on the windows, with uniformed guards, many of them surprisingly, women, and also surprisingly, all of them unarmed, standing behind you, and resenting the fact that you have the privilege of hearing this lecture. (Guards with machine guns man the Gothic-styled Disneyesque outer towers of the prison, but since the Riot, guards on the floor of the main prison, which is built like a Romanesque dungeon and fortress, are never armed.) The lecture will be interrupted by walkie-talkie's noisy commands and guards calling out individual inmates' numbers, not names, who will momentarily stiffen in resistence, then obey, and leave the room.
