Alcmeon Reexamined

  • TITLU în română: Alcmeon reexaminat
  • Subiect: The main purpose of this paper is to provide a modified interpretation of Alcmaeon's doctrine of perception. Specifically, this re-examination hopes: (a) to offer better solutions to many of the problems involved in Alcmaeon's psychology (e.g., the difficulties surrounding the activity v. passivity theories of perception, localization and physiology, the suggested fire assumption for sense vision, etc.); (b) to point to some epistemological implications and the bearings they have upon concerns such as the mind-body problem; (c) to philologically elucidate such key terms and phrases as: αἰσθάνεσθαι, ξυνιέναι, διακρίνεσθαι, δέχεσθαι, δοκεῖ, κενόν, κοῖλον; and (d) in some cases, to semantically interpret those terms and phrases in a new way.
