Explore the inspiring life of St. Severinus Boethius, the last of the Roman philosophers and one of the first Scholastic theologians. Born into a noble Roman family, Boethius bridged the wisdom of ancient Greece with the emerging Christian intellect of the early Middle Ages.

In this episode from The Lives of the Saints by Father Alban Butler, we journey through his brilliance in philosophy, mathematics, theology, and his tragic imprisonment and death. Discover how Boethius’ masterpiece The Consolation of Philosophy shaped Western thought for centuries, blending reason and faith in a time of political turmoil.

Learn how the Church continues to honor him as St. Severinus Boethius, Martyr, celebrated on October 23, and why his intellectual and spiritual legacy still resonates today.
