Boethius’s Consolation of Philosophy
- And unsurprisingly, we are continually let down here too, the wheel of fortune spinning us randomly from promise to disgrace, from hope to ruin. Boethius' provocative message to his own times and to our own is that the best way to find peace of mind may be to perceive the ingredients we associate with happiness as in truth direct conduits to a fundamental instability and thereby to inner torment and anxiety. Boethius' wisdom was to be the last eloquent outcry of the guiding ideas of classical philosophy and in particular its Stoic branch. Thereafter, Christianity subsumed its insights, which were then further obscured by the scientific optimism of the modern period. Our own troubled times deserve to witness the rediscovery of the Stoic message. We become philosophers not by writing books or attending university courses, but by appreciating how little of our lives is in our hands, the ubiquity and fickleness of fortune and our need to look beyond public opinion, family, love and status in order to build up serenity through the exercise of one's distinctive and fate-independent mental powers. Boethius was killed, as he feared, a few months after being imprisoned. His grave lies in the church of San Pietro in Celdoro in Pavia, half an hour from Milan. In his honour, we should leave space for Lady Philosophy occasionally to come and visit us and, when we are facing the worst turns of fortune's wheel, let her strengthen our resolve to depend a little less on what was, in fact, never really ours to rely upon.
