Boecis
The Boecis (original name: Lo poema de Boecis, , ; "The poeme of Boethius") is an anonymous fragment written around the year 1000 in the Limousin dialect of Old Occitan, spoken in the nowadays southern France. It is the first known poem in langue d'oc, and one of the first texts written in a Romance language: according to François Juste Marie Raynouard, it is the second oldest after the Oaths of Strasbourg. On the alleged hundreds or thousands of original lines, only 257 have reached today.
This poem was inspired by the work De consolatione philosophiae of the Latin poet, philosopher and politician Boethius (~480-524).
