David Lefebvre (dir.) : The Science of Life in Aristotle and the Early Peripatos

 Brill - Décembre 2024

This volume of fourteen essays explores the science of life in Aristotle and the Early Peripatos (Theophrastus and the Physical Problems) in its various dimensions--how the study of the soul contributes to the foundation of the science of perishable life, what is the program of this science and its main explanatory strategies, whether it is the explanation of natural generation or the relationship of the animal to its surroundings. But the authors also explore what might be, for Aristotle, the unity of life, not only that of animals and plants, but also that of celestial bodies and the Prime Mover.
