Aristotle’s ‘De Anima’_ (On the Soul) is an attempt to provide a general account of the soul and psychological faculties and phenomena within the framework, as much as possible, of his program of natural science. This course will be devoted to a close reading of Aristotle?s De Anima both within its historical context and in light of contemporary debates concerning the work, especially its significance for post-Cartesian philosophy of psychology.
In addition to the usual requirements, participation and presentation of short writing assignments will be required. Philosophy 25A is a prerequisite.
This course requires a Class Entry Code for admission. Please contact the instructor (andreasa@berkeley.edu) for details.
