The Theological Tractates by Anicius Manlius Severinus Boethius audiobook.

Genre: philosophy

Enter the austere, luminous mind of Boethius and follow one of the late antique world’s great thinkers as he brings classical reason to bear on the deepest questions of faith. In The Theological Tractates, Anicius Manlius Severinus Boethius moves beyond aphorism to sustained, crystalline argument: what is the nature of God and the Trinity, how do divine foreknowledge and human freedom coexist, what is the origin of evil, and on what grounds can the soul claim immortality? These essays combine the precision of a logician with the piety of a believer, using dialectic to illuminate doctrine and to translate complex theological mysteries into rigorous, intelligible discourse. The audiobook invites listeners to savor the patient clarity of Boethius’s reasoning, to eavesdrop on a mind that shaped medieval thought and still speaks to contemporary concerns about providence, responsibility, and the meaning of the good. Whether you come for historical insight, philosophical challenge, or spiritual reflection, this recording renders a foundational bridge between classical philosophy and Christian theology—an essential listen for anyone who wants to trace the origins of Western metaphysical and theological debate.
