English—on the life, thought, works, and influence of Boethius. This
bibliography is intended as a resource primarily for graduate and advanced
undergraduate students in the humanities.
Those desiring a
more extensive listing of primary and secondary works—including a fuller range
of primary texts in Latin as well as secondary literature in various
languages—are advised to consult the following bibliographies: Luca Obertello,
