Description of The Prisoner's Philosophy
The Roman philosopher Boethius is best known for the Consolation of Philosophy, one of the most frequently cited texts in medieval literature. In The Prisoner's Philosophy, Joel C. Relihan delivers a genuinely new reading of the Consolation. He argues that it is a Christian work dramatizing not the truths of philosophy as a whole, but the limits of pagan philosophy in particular.
