Mind and Necessity in Timaeus’ Hepatology Coulter, Evan 2022 Ancient Philosophy , Vol. 42 , Issue 1 , S. 105 ff. ( Zeitschrift ) Englisch 0740-2007 | 2154-4689 10.5840/ancientphil20224216 Abstract
Analogies between the human and the cosmos run throughout Plato’s Timaeus. Timaeus claims that the cosmos came to be as mind’s “persuasion of necessity.” This paper argues that an anthropological equivalent to this “persuasion” can be found in Timaeus’ suggestive account of the human liver. Mediating between intellect and desire, the organ shows the problem of mind and necessity reflected in the human soul.
