Aristotle's De Anima is the first systematic philosophical account
of the soul, which serves to explain the functioning of all mortal
living things. In his commentary, Ronald Polansky argues that the
work is far more structured and systematic than previously
supposed. He contends that Aristotle seeks a comprehensive
understanding of the soul and its faculties. By closely tracing the
unfolding of the many-layered argumentation and the way Aristotle
fits his inquiry meticulously within his scheme of the sciences,
Polansky answers questions relating to the general definition of
soul and the treatment of each of the soul's principal capacities:
nutrition, sense perception, phantasia, intellect, and locomotion.
The commentary sheds light on every section of the De Anima and the
work as a unit. It offers a challenge to earlier and current
interpretations of the relevance and meaning of Aristotle's highly
influential treatise.
