Sumario:In the present work we propose to show the presence of stoic’s elements in The Consolation of Philosophy by Severino Boecio, in particular in books I, II, III and IV. To this matter, we will carry out, at first, an analysis of the Consolatio as a philosophical genre, where we will address the work of the roman author and its peculiar characteristics. Secondly, we will focus the analysis on the therapeutic elements that are present in the mentioned work. We will apecially attend to the elements of stoic origin that can be found when the apparent goods, the passions that they generate, and their relationship with Fortune, are analyzed. In a third moment, we will indicate how those stoic-style observations lead to an analysis of human will and dignity. In fourth and last place, we will conclude the present paper with general observations on the present matter.
