Omschrijving

Experience timeless classics like never before in this Grand Type Collector's Edition

With clear, easy-to-read formatting, this edition is designed for readers who prefer or require larger text without sacrificing the excitement of the original.

Large Print Features:
  • 18-point font: Generously sized text for maximum readability and comfort.
  • Sans-serif font: Clean, modern typeface designed to reduce visual strain.
  • Italics are bolded: Important emphasis is maintained without thin, hard-to-see lettering.
  • Easy-to-read line lengths: Shorter rows of text (under 45 characters per line) make reading smoother and less tiring.

Imprisoned and awaiting his fate, Boethius-once a celebrated scholar and statesman-turns to philosophy for solace in his darkest hour. In the depths of despair, he is visited by the allegorical figure of Lady Philosophy, who guides him through a profound dialogue on fortune, virtue, and the pursuit of true happiness. Together, they uncover the fleeting nature of worldly success and the eternal value of wisdom, offering a vision of inner freedom that transcends suffering. Part poetry, part philosophical reflection, the work blends beauty with reason to illuminate the human struggle against misfortune.

Written in the 6th century, The Consolation of Philosophy became one of the most influential texts of the medieval world. By weaving together elements of classical philosophy and Christian thought, Boethius provided a framework that shaped the intellectual tradition of Europe for centuries. Its influence can be traced through the works of Dante, Aquinas, and Chaucer, cementing its place as a cornerstone of Western thought. Timeless in its wisdom, it continues to inspire readers to seek meaning, resilience, and clarity in the face of adversity.
