A conversational text that addresses many philosophical concepts as
well as Western religion by questioning good versus evil and the
unnecessary suffering of innocent people. Anicius Boethius draws
from his own experiences to illustrate these spiritual and ethical
struggles. In The Consolation of Philosophy the author engages in a
figurative discussion with Lady Philosophy, a type of teacher.
Through their exchange, he poses serious questions regarding the
existence of God and human nature. He also acknowledges his own
dire circumstances, contemplating the hardships and trauma. Many
counterpoints are tied to ideals such as the Wheel of Fortune,
highlighting inconsistent and often unfair outcomes. He also
focuses on the importance of intangible gifts such as love and
intelligence. The Consolation of Philosophy is an honest analysis
of the nature of happiness. It forces the reader to face hard
truths about their wants versus needs. It's a sobering examination
of the unpredictable structure of life. With an eye-catching new
cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of The
Consolation of Philosophy is both modern and readable.
