Boethius cover

This book offers a brief, accessible introduction to the thought of Boethius. After a survey of Boethius's life and work, Marenbon explicates his theological method, and devotes separate chapters to his arguments about good and evil, fortune, fate and free will, and the problem of divine foreknowledge. Marenbon also traces Boethius's influence on the work of such thinkers as Aquinas and Duns Scotus.

...will remain for some time an indispensible introduction to one of the great thinkers of the Middle Ages. * Alan R. Perreiah, Transendent Philosophy *
