Forms, Souls, and Embryos
Angebote / Angebote:
Forms, Souls, and Embryos allows readers coming from different backgrounds to appreciate the depth and originality with which the Neoplatonists engaged with and responded to a number of philosophical questions central to human reproduction, including: What is the causal explanation of the embryös formation? How and to what extent are Platonic Forms involved? In what sense is a fetus `alive, ¿ and when does it become a human being? Where does the embryös soul come from, and how is it connected to its body? This is the first full-length study in English of this fascinating subject, and is a must-read for anyone interested in Neoplatonism or the history of medicine and embryology.
