In antiquity living beings are inextricably linked to the cosmos as
a whole. Ancient biology and cosmology depend upon one another and
therefore a complete understanding of one requires a full account
of the other. This volume addresses many philosophical issues that
arise from this double relation. Does the cosmos have a soul of its
own? Why? Is either of these two disciplines more basic than the
other, or are they at the same explanatory level? What is the
relationship between living things and the cosmos as a whole? If
the cosmos is an animate intelligent being, what is the nature of
its thoughts and actions? How do these relate to our own thoughts
and actions? Do they pose a threat to our autonomy as subjects and
agents? And what is the place of zoogony in cosmogony? A
distinguished international team of contributors provides original
essays discussing these questions.
