Description

Explore the complex relationship between medieval scholars and the legacy of Boethius in this academic study from Routledge. This book reconsiders the impact of the thirteenth-century forgery, De disciplina scolarium, on how the medieval world understood the philosopher Boethius. By tracing the popularity of this reimagined Boethian persona, the text provides a unique look at how medieval schoolmen viewed their own identity and their connection to the past. It also addresses the current scholarly neglect of this forged persona, offering a new perspective on how modern researchers interpret medieval history. Through an examination of various texts, this work helps bridge the gap between historical reality and the intellectual fantasies that shaped medieval thought. It is an essential resource for those studying medieval literature, culture, and the history of intellectual development.
