The Consolation of Philosophy — A LibriVox Audio Book

The Consolation of Philosophy
Anicius Manlius Severinus Boethius (c. 480 - 525)
Translated by Wilbraham Villiers Cooper (1876 - 1955)

The Consolation of Philosophy was written about 524 A.D. and has been called one of the most popular and influential books ever written. The book is presented as a dialogue between Boethius, the author, and Lady Philosophy, his tutor. Through her teaching, Boethius learns the true nature of fortune, misfortune, wealth, good, and evil.

This dramatic reading is an attempt to present this wonderful work in an audio format while maintaining the dialogic structure of the work. (Devorah Allen)
