The last paragraph has some grammatical errors that make it pretty nonsensical. Is there anybody who knows anything about Boethius of Dacia who can rewrite it? Audiosqueegee 04:20, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
He was not a swedish philospher, but a danish! [Kim Boje Thomsen, Copenhagen, Denmark]
It seems to me that Boethius is a rare case of nationalist historiography in Scandinavia, where Swedes and Danes each try to claim him as their own. I seem to recall Nationalencyklopedin listing him as Swedish for example. My suggestion is to rewrite the article to reflect the ambiguity concerning his origins.

Dacia was the Roman province that became Romania. Even the "Dacia" link in the article tells us that it means Romania. If Boethius is Danish or Swedish, why is he called "of Dacia"? Caeruleancentaur ( talk) 14:10, 25 April 2011 (UTC)

I believe we could add more information on his ideas about the highest good. I found a good article that explains his ideas on this. Boethius and Three Kinds of Good by Steven J. Jenson
