Looking at the contents I think that your dissertation certainly will be a very elucidative work on Henry's psychology.CPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03787569735989547737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2908168005477298438.post-34047008216623189782011-02-19T11:33:09.938-05:002011-02-19T11:33:09.938-05:00Hi CP,

Only some of these have been critically edited, and still fewer have been translated into English.<br /><br />But yes, Henry knows Aristotle's De Anima fairly well, and comments on it in lots of places in his writings. Unfortunately, there is not a commentary on the De Anima (as for instance, in the case of Thomas Aquinas). Nonetheless, like many of his colleagues, Henry knew the De Anima and critically developed his own views. You might look at Rombeiro's article that is coming out in JHP, or for greater detail, Bernd Goehring's unpublished Phd. diss from Cornell University, titled "Henry of Ghent on Cognition and Mental Representation" (I think that's the exact title).Scott Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14109057421298257236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2908168005477298438.post-35442464851070920612011-02-18T14:00:36.481-05:002011-02-18T14:00:36.481-05:00Hi,

Are there in his works explicit references to Aristotle's 'De anima', like we can find in William Auvergne 'Tractatus' for example?<br /><br />Thank you.CPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03787569735989547737noreply@blogger.com
