(Text)
The essays collected in this volume focus on Aristotle's notion of nous (usually translated as 'intellect','mind' or simply 'thinking') in Aristotle's works. They aim at elucidating the status and the function of the intellectual faculty in the context of Aristotle's analysis of the faculties of the soul and, more generally, of his conception of science. The volume also contains an overview on the origin and the evolution of the meaning of the term nous before Aristotle.
