This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1896 Excerpt: ...which was mortal. They received from Him Apxv itx'is addvarov, and around this, having added to it various desires and passions, they constructed a its dwelling-place a mortal tody. But ' o-ejSo'jueroi p.t.alviiv To deiov, o rt Jut) iraaa fjv avdymri, ' they placed the immortal soul apart in the head, and separated it from the mortal elements of the soul by interposing the neck between it and them, 'tva etrj xvi's.' The mortal soul was again divided into superior and inferior parts, the dvuoeibes and eiridvp.riT1Kov. The former was placed in the chest to be near at hand to the immortal part, and ready to come to its support, and the latter in the stomach; and then these two again were kept apart by the midriff or diaphragm separating them, ' as the women's and men's apartments are divided in houses.' This seems to explain the language of Dante in the v passage above quoted. (6) The Platonic Jjheory of Ideas. Next there are two or three passages where the theory of 'I8u is referred to: viz. Conv. II. v. 11. 21-34; and IV. xv. 1. 55. To these we may perhaps add Par. xiii. 97,98. There is no direct quotation from Plato himself in any of these passages, and though the general doctrine might be gathered out of the Timaeus, and especially in the places cited in the Index, it is more probable that Dante's knowledge was derived from some other source, since this was a subject generally well known in connexion with the teaching of Plato. Among such likely sources would be Aristotle, Cicero, St. Augustine, or St. Thomas Aquinas. In particular we might cite--(1) Cicero, Orator, c. iii. 'Ut igitur in formis et figuris est aliquod perfectum et excellens cuius ad cogitatam specicm referuntur ea quae sub oculos ipsa cadunt; &c. Has rcritm formas appellat id...
