Consolatio #6: The Finest Threads that Bind the Truth - Book 5 of the Consolation of Philosophy on Free Will, Higher Intelligence, History and Eternity, Hope's Epitaph

The final book in Boethius' Consolation of Philosophy, on the compatibility of divine omniscience and human free will, the eternal and the continual, and the rarefaction of intelligence. Cheers! Virginia Woolf is next... Music: Beethoven, String Quartet No 13, "Cavatina", Orion String Quartet. I also recommend the Lindsay String Quartet version, and the Takács Quartet on Decca. English translation by WV Cooper, with some modifications by the host (e.g. dropping some 'thee' and 'wherefore' archaisms)
