Unjustly imprisoned and waiting to die, Boethius penned his last and greatest work, Consolation of Philosophy, an imaginary dialogue between himself and Philosophy, personified as a woman. Reminiscent of Dante in places, Boethius's fiction is an ode-to-philosophy-cum-Socratic-dialogue. Joel Relihan's skillful rendering, smoother to the modern ear than previous translations, preserves the book's heart-rending clarity and Boethius's knack for getting it just right. Listen to him on fortune: "We spin in an ever-turning circle, and it is our delight to change the bottom for the top and the top for the bottom. You may climb up if you wish, but on this condition: Don't think it an injustice when the rules of the game require you to go back down."Consolation of Philosophy recalls the transience of the material world, the eternality of wisdom, and the life of the philosopher. Boethius was deeply influenced by the Platonist tradition, and this piece is one of the more powerful and artful defenses of a detachment that feels almost Buddhist. For anyone who's felt at odds with the world, Consolation is a reminder that the best things in life are eternal. Boethius must be right: the book is just as meaningful today as it was in the sixth century when he wrote it. --Eric de Place

评分不见得特别喜欢。但很感谢他老把一些比较棘手应急的问题拿出来探讨了(还是在监狱临刑前这么艰苦的环境里),喜欢与lady philosophy对话式探讨的方式,很受用。最后讨论foreknowledge, free will和时间那段,在当时的文化环境来看真是放飞自我式神来之笔(。)感谢江绪林老师的笔记,阅读过程中颇有帮助。

看后领悟了很多东西,虽然其中有关“上帝”的言论并不是很赞同,但是在对有关权利、金钱、欲望以及理性的觉悟上,的确是醍醐灌顶!
评分 评分今天去了教会,顺便读了代国强翻译的《哲学的慰藉》。有点失败,主要是因为阅读过程中有两次对比手机电子书中的Library Fund的英文版,发现中英文之间大相径庭,导致对该译本丧失信任。其实语言是相当优美,虽然后来发现Loeb版与Library Fund版也大不相同。很奇怪为何像《...
评分辉煌一时的罗马帝国,日渐沦为哥特人的附庸,作为一名出生望族的出色的罗马执政官,本书作者波爱修斯却仅仅显赫一时,便得罪东哥特王国国王,被诬陷而下在监狱…… “昔日里我陶醉创作令人愉悦的歌咏,但如今我含泪被迫写出悲哀的吟颂……。死亡…她对我千媚百...
