Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: IN his former work Dr. Ogle gave ample proof of his competence to deal with Aristotle, both as a scholar and as a biologist. The "simple Aristotelian" might cavil at some of his readings and renderings and at his method of translation, which is rather that of a paraphrase than of a literal translation. But the "simple Aristotelian" is generally a severe and sometimes rather a pedantic critic, and the biological student, to whom rather than to the pure scholar Dr. Ogle appeals, is more likely to appreciate good and intelligible English than a verbal and therefore often obscure rendering of the Greek. In the same spirit and with the same insight into Aristotle's thought and its relation to the history of biology, Dr. Ogle has now translated some of the smaller treatises of the master, which are variously regarded by different editors as either three separate treatises on Life and Death on Youth and Old Age, and on Respiration or as variously divided sections of the same treatise. Dr. Ogle adopts the latter view. "There seems," he says, " no adequate reason for any subdivision whatever of the treatise, and it appears more consistent with its internal structure to treat it as a single work dealing with several closely connected topics." We shall not attempt to anticipate the judgment of scholars on this solution of a problem which arises in one form or another in connection with nearly every one of Aristotle's works and has been the occasion of almost endless discussion and controversy. Nor need we attempt to appreciate the merit of Dr. Ogle's translation in general or of his solution of the many critical difficulties which confront the student of every portion of Aristotle's writings. His notes seem to show that he has allowed himself considerable latitude of conjectural emendation, but questions of this kind do not concern us here. Of far greater interest to the general, and more especially to the biological, reader is the lucid and very instructive introduction on the historical relations and fate of Aristotle's theory of respiration which Dr. Ogle has prefixed to his translation and the explanatory notes of the same character with which he has accompanied it. —London Times.

Book On Youth and Old Age  on Life and Death  on Breathing

Download or read book On Youth and Old Age on Life and Death on Breathing written by Aristotle and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-11-26 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Along with Plato and Socrates, Aristotle (384-322 B.C.) is one of the triumvirate of philosophers responsible for the establishment of Western philosophy as it exists today. Socrates, Plato and Aristotle were among the first to refine philosophical thought, and Socrates is credited with devising the Socratic Method as a way to argue and debate points rationally. The Ancient Greek philosophers further stressed the importance of virtue and stoicism, advocating the improvement of one's self through constant learning and knowledge. These teachings and practices formed the foundation for philosophy and psychology as fields of study. Still, Aristotle was very much his own philosopher. Though he studied at Plato's famous academy, he was not hesitant to counter or criticize Plato's philosophical stances on certain issues. Aristotle was the most renowned Ancient Greek philosopher for nearly 2,000 years

Book Aristotle  On Youth and Old Age  Life and Death  and Respiration 1 6

Download or read book Aristotle On Youth and Old Age Life and Death and Respiration 1 6 written by Giouli Korobili and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-06-21 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is devoted to the last part of Aristotle’s collection of short treatises known today as the Parva Naturalia, i.e. the treatise On Youth and Old Age, on Life and Death, on Respiration. In the three main sections of the book, the author offers a translation, a commentary and a thorough analysis of this work. The author argues in favour of the unity of the work and contextualises its ideas within Aristotle’s corpus and the medical tradition of his time. After an Introduction to the nature of the work and its significance for the history of natural philosophy and science, a new English translation follows, along with a detailed commentary of Chapters 1-6, which combines philosophical discussion with philological observations. The book includes four interpretive essays, which tackle problems related to the whole treatise on a more philosophical basis, including questions about the structure and unity of the work, the organisation of the material, Aristotle’s methodological principles, his aims and target audience as well as the relevance of his selected themes to the thematic agenda of some Hippocratic writings. This book is of interest to students and researchers in Aristotle’s psychophysiology, and his views about the embodied mind, as well as to anyone concerned with the history of natural philosophy and science more generally.

Book Aristotle   s    Parva naturalia

Download or read book Aristotle s Parva naturalia written by Ronald Polansky and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2024-05-20 with total page 936 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aristotle’s Parva naturalia continues the investigation begun in the De anima. The De anima defines the soul and treats its main powers, nutrition, sense perception, intellection, and locomotion. The Parva naturalia — On sense and sensible objects, On memory and recollection, On sleep, On dreams, On divination in sleep, On motion of animals (De motu animalium ), On length and shortness of life, and On youth and old age and respiration — attends more to bodily involvement with soul. While each work offers fascinating and challenging insights, there has never been as extensive a commentary covering them together. A reason is that the works have often been viewed as incidental and even inconsistent. The De motu animalium has not typically been included, when viewed as an isolated work on animal locomotion. This commentary argues that the treatises, considered together and with the De motu among them, display a tight sequence manifesting an artful, yet easily overlooked, design. We reveal many techniques of Aristotle’s writing that have received little consideration previously. Our commentary contributes to a unified and comprehensive account of Aristotle’s overall project regarding the soul and its connections with the body.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Download or read book On the Soul written by Aristotle and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-05-11 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: '. . . the more honourable animals have been allotted a more honourable soul. . . ' What is the nature of the soul? It is this question that Aristotle sought to answer in De Anima (On the Soul). In doing so he offers a psychological theory that encompasses not only human beings but all living beings. Its basic thesis, that the soul is the form of an organic body, sets it in sharp contrast with both Pre-Socratic physicalism and Platonic dualism. On the Soul contains Aristotle's definition of the soul, and his explanations of nutrition, perception, cognition, and animal self-motion. The general theory in De Anima is augmented in the shorter works of Parva Naturalia, which deal with perception, memory and recollection, sleep and dreams, longevity, life-cycles, and psycho-physiology. This new translation brings together all of Aristotle's extant and complementary psychological works, and adds as a supplement ancient testimony concerning his lost writings dealing with the soul. The introduction by Fred D. Miller, Jr. explains the central place of the soul in Aristotle's natural science, the unifying themes of his psychological theory, and his continuing relevance for modern philosophy and psychology.
