About the Book

The final work of the statesman and philosopher Boethius not only represents both a climax and the end of philosophy from Late Antiquity in Latin, but also combines numerous literary prose forms such as dialogue, satire, speeches of defence and consolation with an extraordinary wealth of lyric and metrical elements to weave a rich literary tapestry which has continually attracted new readers right up to the present day. This is the first modern commentary on the Consolatio Philosophiae, and beside offering a detailed introduction it also provides a detailed philological and philosophical key to the text of the consolation which proceeds from keyword to keyword. There is a full documentation of the manifold references to related texts. This is the second fully revised and extended edition of the commentary, which first appeared in 1978; it is regarded as one of the standard works in Late Latin studies.

Joachim Gruber, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München.

Review :
"Der vorliegende Kommentar von Joachim Gruber stellt eine vorbildliche philosophisch-philologische Gelehrtenleistung in bester humanistischer Tradtion dar. Die hier vorliegende zweite Auflage enthält viele Verbesserungen gegenüber der ersten und berücksichtigt die inzwischen erschienene Literatur zum Thema." Karl-Heinz Nusser in: Zeitschrift für Politik 2/2007 "The first edition of this book immediately established itself as a standard work. Now, with great patience and industry but also a remarkably fresh re-engagement with the Consolation, G. has brought his commentary completely up to date. Boethians everywhere will salute him. And the publisher has produced a book of the highest technical quality." Gerard O'Daly in: Bryn Mawr Classical Review 8/2007
