Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A majority of the various contributions gathered in this collection result from a Colloquium entitled Soul and Intellect: Ancient and Medieval Perspective on the De Anima, which was held in Leuven and Louvain-la-Neuve (Belgium) from February 14th to 17th 2007, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the foundation of the Centre De Wulf-Mansion. For reasons of convenience, the contributions relating to Antiquity and those relating to the Middle Ages are the subject of two distinct publications. This volume gathers a series of articles treating various aspects of the reception of the De Anima in the Middle Ages (and even in the Renaissance), from Averroes to Suarez. This volume should thus be regarded as the continuation of the work Ancient Perspectives on Aristotle's De Anima, ed. by G. Van Riel and P. Destree, with the assistance of C. Crawford and L. Van Campe (Ancient and Medieval Philosophy, XLI), Leuven, Leuven University Press, 2010. The contributors are R. Taylor, P. Porro, B. Goehring, T. Hoffmann, J. Casteigt, J. Aertsen, J.-L. Solere, W. Goris, P. Bakker, M. Abraham, S. de Boer, D. Perler, Ch. Shields.
