He was taught at the schools of Rome and Alexandria, in Athens (5). These two places is where he learned his philosophical knowledge. He had two different ways of schooling, one Platonic, the other, Christian (5). In some ways he had trouble combining the two ways of thinking (5). However this didn’t make him any less Christian (5). Boethius had a large impact on religion (5). He wrote a book titled De Consolatione Philosophiae (Consolation for Philosophy) and it was, other than the bible, the most read, translated, and commented on work in word history (6).

In these works he talked about the problems of Trinitarian theology and Christology, which were popular topics at the time (5).
