 According to near-contemporary evidence, Boethius was, along with Siger of Brabant, one of the main targets of the great condemnation of March 1277 when bishop Stephen Tempier of Paris issued a list of 219 theses the teaching of which he prohibited (Hisette 1977: 11f.). Modern research has, indeed, confirmed that several items of the list reflect passages in works by Boethius (Hisette 1977; Piché 1999). It is unknown whether Boethius was still alive in 1277; he may have either died or left France some time before, for when in November 1276, as a prelude to the condemnation, Simon du Val, inquisitor for France, cited some arts masters to appear before him, Siger was included, but Boethius was not. A fourteenth-century bibliography of works by Dominican writers (“The Stams Catalogue”) includes Boethius, so it is possible that after his career in the arts faculty he became a friar.
