Description
King Alfred's Anglo-Saxon Version of Boethius is a book written by Samuel Fox and published in 1864. The book is a translation of the work of Boethius, a Roman philosopher and statesman who lived in the 6th century. Boethius wrote a book called The Consolation of Philosophy, which was widely read and studied during the Middle Ages. Fox's translation focuses on King Alfred's version of Boethius' work. King Alfred was a ruler of the Anglo-Saxon kingdom of Wessex in the 9th century. He was known for his efforts to promote education and literacy in his kingdom. One of his projects was to translate works of literature from Latin into Old English, the language of his people. Fox's book includes the complete text of King Alfred's translation of The Consolation of Philosophy. The book is divided into five sections, each of which explores a different aspect of philosophy. The first section discusses the nature of happiness, while the second section explores the nature of fortune and fate. The third section focuses on the nature of free will, while the fourth section looks at the nature of knowledge. The final section discusses the nature of God and the relationship between God and humanity. Overall, King Alfred's Anglo-Saxon Version of Boethius is a fascinating look at the work of a great philosopher and the efforts of a king to promote education and literacy in his kingdom. The book is an important piece of Anglo-Saxon literature and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of philosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
