He wrote texts on mathematics and translated works by Aristotle into Latin, which would be some of the only ancient learning medieval scholars would be able to access for centuries. He fell out of favor and was imprisoned by Theodoric, during which time he wrote the Consolatio Philosophiae (the Consolation of Philosophy ), which became extremely influential to medieval philosophy. At the end of the imprisonment Boethius was executed. His biography was written by his colleague Cassiodorus

    http://www.gap-system.org/~history/Biographies/Boethius.html
    
    Extractions: Version for printing Anicius Manlius Severinus Boethius came from the family of Anicii who had been Christians for around 100 years. He became an orphan when he was about seven years old when his father, who became consul in 487, died soon afterwards. Boethius was brought up in the house of the aristocratic family of Quintus Aurelius Memmius Symmachus. In fact Symmachus himself had been consul in 485 just before Boethius's father. Boethius was extremely well educated, being fluent in Greek and very familiar with the works of the Greek philosophers. Although there is no firm evidence to prove that Boethius ever studied in Athens or Alexandria, many historians believe that this must have been the case for him to have achieved a unique level of scholarship among his countrymen. He married Symmachus's daughter Rusticiana and they had two sons who would follow their father in being appointed to high public office. Boethius served a term as consul in 510 while in 522 his two sons held the office of consul simultaneously.

    Extractions: doi:10.1093/0195134079.001.0001 Abstract: This book provides, for the first time, a philosophical study of the whole range of Boethius's writings (except his textbooks on music and arithmetic): the commentaries and monographs on logic, the Opuscula sacra (short treatises on theology) and the Consolation of Philosophy. It also offers a reassessment of Boethius as a philosopher. Boethius, Marenbon argues, was not merely of importance in transmitting ancient Platonism and Aristotelian logical doctrines of the late ancient Platonic schools to the Latin Middle Ages, but was also a subtle and interesting original thinker. In his Opuscula sacra, he makes innovations in the theological method that would mould medieval thinking. The Consolation both directly tackles problems such as the compatibility of human free will and divine prescience and providence, and through its complex use of the dialog form, probes the relation between philosophy and religious belief, Christian and pagan.

It has been described as the single most important and influential work in the West on Medieval and early Renaissance Christianity , and is also the last great Western work that can be called Classical. A golden volume not unworthy of the leisure of Plato or Tully Edward Gibbon Consolation of Philosophy was written during a one-year imprisonment Boethius served while awaiting trial – and eventual horrific execution – for the crime of treason under the Ostrogothic King Theodoric the Great . Boethius was at the very heights of power in Rome and was brought down by treachery. This experience inspired the text, which reflects on how evil can exist in a world governed by God, and how happiness can be attainable amidst fickle fortune, while also considering the nature of happiness and God. It has been described as "by far the most interesting example of prison literature the world has ever seen."

    Extractions: Boethius was a Roman scholar and statesman, author of the neoplatonic work Consolations of Philosophy De consolatione philosophiae ). He is best knows as a translator of and commentator on Greek writings on logic and mathematics (Plato, Aristotle, Nichomachus). He was appointed consul in 510 by King Theodoric, and in 520 head of government and court services. For political views he held, Boethius fell out of favor with the King and was charged with treason for defending a senator accused of treasonous activity. While in prison awaiting execution, he wrote Consolations of Philosophy , in which Book V, Boethius thoroughly investigates the concept of Eternity One of the first musical works to be printed (Venice, 1491-92), Boethius's De institutione musica , written in the early sixth century, was for medieval authors from around the ninth century on the authoritative document on Greek music-theoretical thought and systems. The focus on counterpoint and the ecclesiatical modes in treatises after 1400 marginalized Boethius's volume to some extent, but it regained significance with the discovery and translation into Latin of ancient Greek works that Boethius had used as the basis for De institutione musica .

    Extractions: Wednesday, 12 March 2008 Boethius and Cassiodorus Dear Brothers and Sisters, His most famous work is undoubtedly De Consolatione Philosophiae, which he wrote in prison to help explain his unjust detention. In fact, he had been accused of plotting against King Theodoric for having taken the side of his friend Senator Albinus in a court case. But this was a pretext. Actually, Theodoric, an Arian and a barbarian, suspected that Boethius was sympathizing with the Byzantine Emperor Justinian. Boethius was tried and sentenced to death. He was executed on 23 October 524, when he was only 44 years old. It is precisely because of his tragic end that he can also speak from the heart of his own experience to contemporary man, and especially to the multitudes who suffer the same fate because of the injustice inherent in so much of "human justice". Through this work, De Consolatione Philosophiae, he sought consolation, enlightenment and wisdom in prison. And he said that precisely in this situation he knew how to distinguish between apparent goods, which disappear in prison, and true goods such as genuine friendship, which even in prison do not disappear. The loftiest good is God: Boethius - and he teaches us this - learned not to sink into a fatalism that extinguishes hope. He teaches us that it is not the event but Providence that governs and Providence has a face. It is possible to speak to Providence because Providence is God. Thus, even in prison, he was left with the possibility of prayer, of dialogue with the One who saves us. At the same time, even in this situation he retained his sense of the beauty of culture and remembered the teaching of the great ancient Greek and Roman philosophers such as Plato, Aristotle - he had begun to translate these Greeks into Latin - Cicero, Seneca, and also poets such as Tibullus and Virgil.
