The Consolation of Philosophy

Post by zeno »

I caught snippets of Cale Clarke talking about this book today and thought it sounded interesting. Anyone read it? There is an Ignatius Press critical edition that I find tempting https://ignatius.com/the-consolation-of ... ophy-7cpp/
Thank you for your patience as I build the board. I have about 1/16 to go.

I was supposed to have read parts in seminary. I might or might not have actually done so.

But surely you read all 4 Books of Sentences?
