サマリー
あらすじ・解説
Today, we're talking about one of the most influential works of the medieval period: The Consolation of Philosophy. Written in the 6th century by Boethius, a Roman politician, while languishing in jail before his eventual execution, it has not only been influential but remains vital today as a work of literature and philosophy.
We are remarkably fortunate to have with us Professor Louis Marcos of Houston Christian University. An award-winning lecturer, he has recorded courses for the Great Courses series and is dedicated to the idea of the professor as a public educator. Accordingly, he has authored many popular and illuminating books, often focused on exploring the wisdom found in pre-Christian and non-Christian texts.
These works include From Plato to Christ, From Achilles to Christ, and The Myth Made Fact. In addition, he has written works of apologetics, studies on Romantic poets and poetry, and guides to the writings of C. S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien. Download the FaithWave app for more: FaithWave.app
