Medical and Philosophical Causality of Nutrition. About some Hippocratic Issues
Elenchos: Rivista di Studi Sul Pensiero Antico 42 (1):67-93 (2021)
Abstract
After a quick overview on the specification of the causal role of the powers or faculties (δυνάμεις) in nutrition, from the Hippocratic physicians to Galen, via Aristotle, the article defines the set of questions about this process that the Hippocratic physicians leave open. It then examines how Aristotle provides some sort of indirect physical and ethical answers, while Galen openly takes the side of reappropriating the central Stoic concept of oikeiôsis in a Platonist way.Other Versions
