Providence, fate, and freedom according to Origen and Boethius
Original language description
The study points out, apart from many similarities, some differences between Origen and Boethius, conditioned, among other things, by their philosophical sources. While both emphasise the freedom of rational beings and its moral implications, Origen’s concept reaches further than Boethius’. Not only does he seriously consider the freedom of the stars and other rational beings in addition to the freedom of the humans, but, above all, he allows divine providence to be affected by these beings. According to Origen, the divine care of the world does not so much consist in the realisation of the perfect plan of the divine mind by means of the chains of fate, as Boethius had it, as in the harmonisation of freedoms which God deliberately does not determine, but allows himself to be determined by in his arrangement of the world.
