Resumo: This paper addresses the contemporary thesis of psychophysical supervenience and its application to the interpretation of Aristotle’s psychological hylomorphism. It will be shown that the supervenience thesis, in its different versions, fails to explain the essential unity of the soul and of the psychophysical compound. Arguments will be provided on the basis of Aristotle’s discussion of the harmony theory of the soul (de An. I 4) and more generally on his methodological claims on the definition of the soul and of its affections (de An. I 1).

Si dimostrerà che la tesi della sopravvenienza, nelle sue diverse versioni, non è in grado di rendere conto dell’unità essenziale dell’anima e del sinolo psicofisico. Verranno forniti argomenti sulla base della discussione di Aristotele della dottrina dell’anima come harmonia del corpo (de An. I 4) e più in generale sulle sue affermazioni metodologiche in merito alla definizione dell’anima e delle sue affezioni (de An. I 1).Cátedra UNESCO Archai (Universidade de Brasília); Imprensa da Universidade de Coimbra, Portugal; Annablume Editora, São Paulo, Brasil2023-05-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArticlesArtigosapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/archai/article/view/4883810.14195/1984-249X_33_14Revista Archai; No. 33 (2023): No. 33 (2023): Archai 33 (2023); e03314Archai Journal; n. 33 (2023): No. 33 (2023): Archai 33 (2023); e033141984-249X2179-4960reponame:Revista Archai (Online)instname:Universidade de Brasília (UnB)instacron:UNBitahttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/archai/article/view/48838/37105Copyright (c) 2023 Giulia Mingucci https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMingucci , Giulia2023-05-31T18:12:43Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/48838Revistahttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/archaiPUBhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/archai/oai||archaijournal@unb.br|| cornelli@unb.br1984-249X1984-249Xopendoar:2023-05-31T18:12:43Revista Archai (Online) - Universidade de Brasília (UnB)false
