Question

Joel Relihan argued that this philosopher structured one work as a Menippean (“men-ip-pee-an”) satire to advocate for the necessity of prayer and faith besides its last title concept. A poem by this philosopher addressed to the “lord and path and goal” is traditionally interpreted as a summary of the Timaeus. The (-5[1])fifth book of one work by this philosopher (-5[1])argues that the distinction between the divine intellect and human reason (-5[1])allows divine prescience to coexist with free will. (15[1])God is compared to a ship’s (15[1])(*) “rudder and helm” in a work by this philosopher (10[2])that echoes the Gorgias in claiming that evildoers punish themselves by no longer existing as humans. This philosopher’s most famous work popularized (10[1])the wheel of fortune (10[5])and begins (10[4])with a visit (-5[1])by (10[1])an allegorical (10[3]-5[1])Lady (-5[2])while he is imprisoned (10[2])for treason against Theodoric. For 10 points, name this author of The Consolation (10[1])of Philosophy. (10[2])■END■ (10[4]0[3])
