Theological Tractates

by Anicius Manlius Severinus Boethius

This collection of theological tracts by Boethius, written in the final years of his life, delves into pivotal Christian doctrines. It examines the nature of the Trinity, refuting Arian heresy and arguing for the unity of God in three persons. Boethius also addresses the complex question of Christ's person, defending the orthodox view against the heresies of Eutyches and Nestorius. Notably, he applies Aristotelian logic to theological questions, pioneering a new method in Christian thought. These texts, concise and insightful, offer profound reflections on foundational Christian beliefs, showcasing Boethius's intellectual depth and his commitment to defending the orthodox faith.
