Bo�thius of Dacia
Bo�thius of Dacia (died circa 1290) was a Swedish or Danish philosopher active at the University of Sorbonne[?] in France.
He was the most know proponent of Averroism, which is an interpretation of Aristoteles founded on Averro�s. He wrote several books in latin, which have been collected in the six volumes of Bo�thii Daci opera, printed in Copenhagen.
When averroism was banned in 1270, Bo�thius returned to the Nordic countries and died in Link�ping, Sweden.
