This collection of essays explores consolation and mourning in the varied, sometimes provocative, readings of Boethius and of Stoic consolation by French, English, Italian and German authors, including Dante, Petrarch, Boccaccio, Machaut, Chaucer, Wyatt and Queen Elizabeth I.
'...the essays in this volume...offer a welcome, timely, and stimulating reassessment and reassertion of Boethius's centrality to medieval studies.' - Simon Gaunt, King's College London
