Description

Explore fundamental philosophical questions about the relationship between body and soul through the lens of late antique thinkers. This collected work examines how philosophers including Iamblichus, Porphyry, and Augustine understood the human condition, addressing how the mortal body influences the rational soul and what role physical sustenance plays in spiritual development. The papers investigate the interconnection between embodiment and reason, considering practical questions about diet, animal consumption, and the ethics of bodily existence. By reading these ancient texts within their social and intellectual contexts, the collection reveals how late antique philosophy grappled with the fundamental nature of human existence and the complex dynamics between material and immaterial aspects of being.
