波爱修斯(480—524)是欧洲中世纪开始时一位罕见的百科全书式思想家,在逻辑学、哲学、神学、数学、文学和音乐等方面都做出了卓越的贡献,有“最后一位罗马哲学家”、“经院哲学第一人”、“奥古斯丁之后最伟大的拉丁教父”之称。
Boethius composed the De Consolatione Philosophiae in the sixth century AD whilst awaiting death under torture, condemned on a charge of treason which he protested was manifestly unjust. Though a convinced Christian, in detailing the true end of life which is the soul's knowledge of God, he consoled himself not with Christian precepts but with the tenets of Greek philosophy. This work dominated the intellectual world of the Middle Ages; writers as diverse as Thomas Aquinas, Jean de Meun, and Dante were inspired by it. In England it was rendered in to Old English by Alfred the Great, into Middle English by Geoffrey Chaucer, and later Queen Elizabeth I made her own translation. The circumstances of composition, the heroic demeanour of the author, and the 'Menippean' texture of part prose, part verse have combined to exercise a fascination over students of philosophy and literature ever since. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.
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 评分一自身 1人的欲望不断催生着,它们规定着我们的欲望。我们该明白命运不在我们的掌控中,如果一个人可以好好看看历史的故事,发现人们能够掌控的便是好好感谢命运赐予自己的东西,并发挥最大的努力,而很多的悲剧,或英雄事迹,或等等,便是人的理性幻想想要超出被命运罩住的人...
