Aristotle's De anima

In the Version of William of Moerbeke and the Commentary of St. Thomas Aquinas
Book • 1951
Aristotle's 'De Anima' (On the Soul) explores the nature of the soul and its relationship to the body.

The book investigates different types of souls—nutritive, sensitive, and rational—and their corresponding functions.

Aristotle examines perception, imagination, and intellect, explaining how the soul receives and processes information from the external world.

He introduces the concept of the 'active intellect,' which plays a crucial role in abstracting universal concepts from sensory experiences.

'De Anima' also discusses the soul's role in motion and desire, providing a comprehensive account of the soul's place in the natural world.
