PEL Presents PvI#92: Postale au Naturale w/ Greg McBrayer

Aristotle's De Anima (On the Soul) is a seminal work in the history of philosophy and psychology. It explores the nature of the soul, its relationship to the body, and its various functions. Aristotle rejects Plato's theory of the soul as a separate, immortal entity, arguing instead that the soul is the form or essence of a living organism. He distinguishes between different types of souls, from the vegetative soul of plants to the rational soul of humans. De Anima significantly influenced subsequent philosophical and scientific thinking about the mind and consciousness, shaping discussions on the nature of life and intelligence.

Moby-Dick is a novel that tells the story of Captain Ahab's maniacal quest for revenge against Moby Dick, the giant white sperm whale that bit off his leg. Narrated by Ishmael, the story follows the crew of the whaling ship Pequod as they embark on a journey that explores themes of obsession, man vs. nature, and the existential questions of good and evil. The novel is rich in detailed descriptions of whale hunting and life aboard a culturally diverse crew, and it has become a cornerstone of American and world literature.
