Delivers a reading of the ""Consolation"". This work argues that it is a Christian work dramatizing not the truths of philosophy as a whole, but the limits of pagan philosophy in particular. It argues that Boethius deliberately dramatizes the act of writing about systematic knowledge in a way that calls into question the value of that knowledge.
