Description

The Clarendon Aristotle Series is designed for both students and professionals. It provides accurate translations of selected Aristotelian texts, accompanied by incisive commentaries that concentrate on philosophical problems and issues, The volumes in the series have been widely welcomed and favourably reviewed. Vital new titles are being added to the series, and plenty of well-established volumes are being reissued with revisions and/or supplementary material.

Christopher Shields presents a new translation and observation of Aristotle’s De Anima, a work of interest to philosophers at all levels, in addition to psychologists and students interested in the nature of life and living systems. The volume provides a full translation of the complete work, along with a comprehensive observation. Even as sensitive to philological and textual matters, the observation addresses itself to the philosophical reader who wishes to keep in mind and assess Aristotle’s accounts of the soul and body; perception; thinking; action; and the character of living systems. It aims to present controversial aspects of the text in a neutral, fair-minded manner, in order that readers can come to be equipped to form their own judgments. This volume includes the a very powerful first book, which the original translation in the Clarendon Aristotle Series omitted.
