Heat, Pneuma, and Soul in Ancient Philosophy and Science
Colin Guthrie King-Hynek Bartos
Ancient theories of the soul were influenced decisively by general assumptions about basic properties of living things, especially 'heat' and 'breath' (pneuma). This volume considers the relationship of the notions of heat, breath (pneuma), and soul in ancient Greek philosophy and science from the Presocratics to Aristotle.
