Episode 131: Aristotle's "De Anima": What Is the Mind?
Our second discussion of De Anima or On the Soul (350 BCE), this time on book 3. What is the intellect? We talk about its highest part/function: nous, which is a "form of forms," literally nothing until it thinks, survives death and is not actually yours or mine, but just the universal mind!
This continues the discussion from ep. 130 and includes a preview of the Aftershow featuring Rebecca Goldner.
End song: "Wonderful You" (live 2001) by Mark Lint.
