Minor in Classical Literature - The Consolation of Philosophy
CLAS 4060 The Consolation of Philosophy
CREDIT HOURS: 3
Boethius's Consolation is a strange example of Menippean satire, which is itself a strange genre. This class will consider the poetry, the prose and, most significantly, how these elements are combined in order to achieve the goal of the work, which is to offer consolation to the reader.
