Anicius Manlius Severinus Boethius Boethius was a Roman scholar and statesman, author of the neoplatonic work Consolations of Philosophy De consolatione philosophiae ). He is best knows as a translator of and commentator on Greek writings on logic and mathematics (Plato, Aristotle, Nichomachus). He was appointed consul in 510 by King Theodoric, and in 520 head of government and court services. For political views he held, Boethius fell out of favor with the King and was charged with treason for defending a senator accused of treasonous activity. While in prison awaiting execution, he wrote Consolations of Philosophy , in which Book V, Boethius thoroughly investigates the concept of Eternity One of the first musical works to be printed (Venice, 1491-92), Boethius's De institutione musica , written in the early sixth century, was for medieval authors from around the ninth century on the authoritative document on Greek music-theoretical thought and systems. The focus on counterpoint and the ecclesiatical modes in treatises after 1400 marginalized Boethius's volume to some extent, but it regained significance with the discovery and translation into Latin of ancient Greek works that Boethius had used as the basis for De institutione musica . Franchino Gaffurio, for example, acknowledged Boethius in

Boethius lived when the Ostrogoths had conquered the Roman Empire. His father died when he was seven, and he was reared by an aristocrat named Symmachus. Boethius loved learning and set himself the task of translating the greatest Greek works into Latin with comments. He hoped to reconcile apparent contradictions in Aristotle and Plato. His death for treason cut that project short, but the translations he finished formed the basis for learning in the Middle Ages. It was Boethius who named the quadrivium , a course of study required of all students in those troubled years.

Texts May 14, 2007 [This is the final segment in the Boethius series as the problem of divine foreknowledge takes us through the end of the Consolation In prose III of book V Boethius proposes the problem of divine foreknowledge as a subject for further philosophical discussion. How is it that God can have infallible foreknowledge about contingent future events because knowledge requires necessity? If God necessarily knows that Socrates will do X at some future time, then it seems that Socrates cannot fail to do X, and therefore that he does not have free will and X is not contingent. But it is ridiculous to deny the freedom of the will in Boethius’s opinion, since then there would be no vices nor virtues, and even vices would be understood to come about through God’s action, nor would there be any point in praying (401).

What are these? Reviewed by Murrough O'Brien Sunday, 27 January 2008 Of old Roman aristocratic stock, the great philosopher-theologian Boethius came to the attention of Theodoric, the Gothic king of Italy, whose enlightened attitude failed him when Boethius was slandered by an envious foe. In prison, awaiting execution, Boethius composed his great Consolation of Philosophy. Like many starved of help and in need of some echo from elsewhere, he imagined an interlocutor, in his case, an angel, talking him out of the "sickness" of his misery. Most of the work is in prose; James Harpur, however, has given us the poems. Interesting? Click here to explore further
