Abstract
The seventh of the triennial Symposia Aristotelica was devoted to studies of Aristotle’s two major psychological treatises, the De anima and the Parva naturalia. All of the papers at that conference are presented here in revised form. In addition, the four papers not originally presented in either English or French have been translated into English for this volume. Perhaps the best way to present an initial sense of the range of topics is to list the table of contents: S. Mansion, "Soul and Life in the De anima"; Charles Lefèvre, "Sur le statut de l'ame dans le De anima et les Parva naturalia"; Andreas Graeser, "On Aristotle’s Framework of Sensibilia"; M. Schofield, "Aristotle on the Imagination"; Enrico Berti, "The Intellection of Indivisibles According to Aristotle De anima 3.6"; David J. Furley, "Self Movers"; J. B. Skemp, "ὀρέξις in De anima 3.10"; G. Verbecke "Doctrine du pneuma et entelechisme chez Aristote"; G. E. R. Lloyd, "The Empirical Basis of the Physiology of the Parva naturalia"; Jurgen Wiesner, "The Unity of the De somno and the Physiological Explanation of Sleep in Aristotle"; and Paul Moraux, "Le De anima dans le tradition grecque: Quelques aspects de l'interpretation du traité, de Theophraste a [[sic]] Themistius." The work concludes with an index of sources, an index of technical terms, and an index of persons and subjects.
