Author Description

De Consolatione Philosophiae, Libri Quinque est opus magnum et notabile scriptum a Bernartio Joanne, qui fuit philosophus et theologus Gallus saeculi decimi sexti. Liber est una ex operibus classici philosophi Boethii, qui scripsit eum in carcere ante mortem. Bernartius, qui erat admirator Boethii, scripsit commentarios et interpretationes in librum, quibus addidit suas cogitationes et opiniones. Liber est divisa in quinque libros, quorum primus tractat de felicitate et miseria, secundus de causis malorum, tertius de fortuna et eius inconstantia, quartus de virtute et sapientia, et quintus de amore Dei. Bernartius utitur lingua Latina pura et elegante, quae facit librum facile legi et intellegi. Liber est adhuc consideratus ut opus classici philosophiae et theologicae, qui demonstrat sapientiam et profunditatem mentis auctoris.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
