[MaFLa] Aphrodisziaszi Alexandrosz a lélek vágyakozó és értelmi képességeiről - ELTE-CEU workshop, 2016. december 8-10.

[István Bodnár]

Alexander of Aphrodisias on the soul's capacities for desiring and
understanding - South-East European Association for Ancient Philosophy
Workshop




 

The topic of the workshop is the treatment of two soul-powers by Alexander
of Aphrodisias, the most important Peripatetic philosopher and commentator
of antiquity, in his work De anima (On the Soul): namely the desiring soul
(De anima pp. 71-80) and the thinking (rational) part of the soul (De anima
pp. 80-94). In both cases, the workshop will aim at an in-depth reading and
discussion of Alexander's complex argumentation, and to connect Alexander's
accounts about the soul to his metaphysical and epistemological discussions
and to his theory of action.
