Best Translation of Boethius' The Consolation of Philosophy

The best translation and commentary on Boethius' The Consolation of Philosophy is by Richard Green.  You can purchase a hard copy through Amazon for about $7 via this link:  http://www.amazon.com/Consolation-Philosophy-Boethius/dp/1614270457.  I have not found a digital edition by Professor Green.  If you locate one, please let me know.

Consolation of Philosophy

Boethius is a hero of mine. He wrote his life's work while falsely imprisoned by a tyrant. This blog will discuss his book: The Consolation of Philosophy. If you have not read it, you will be blown away by it!
