Abstract

In this paper, the author intends to approach to the hylemorphic composition of human nature from a non-fragmented perspective.  The broad series of meanings of basic concepts from Aristotle’s Metaphysics Book Δ are united by analogy. This enable the study of soul and body interaction from the Aristotelian argumentation about human nature exposed in De anima.
