He proved a keen and unprejudiced observer and collector of the largest possible number of experiences that may describe different kinds of catharsis. At a speculative level, he proceeded in continuity with and yet going beyond his teacher’s opinions. Important building blocks in the construction of his cathartic theory were the development of the Aristotelian method through the criterion of the “more and the less”, which became the guiding principle he applied to physiological enquiries into humors and warmth. This led to a consequent focus on the physiological motions connected with the ones of the soul (both explained in terms of a dynamic relationship between different degrees of “tension” and “relaxation”, two key terms) and with the interpretation of ethical issues in relation to the different degrees of “tension” or “relaxation”...

They are two contemporaries of Aristotle: the tragic interpreter Theodore of Athens and the comedian Parmenon, around which anecdotes flourished. They were two very experienced artists in the art of naturalistic mimesis. A mimesis that went even beyond the competition with reality: in fact, their perfect imitations had effects on the audience that the real experiences did not obtain because of the sensitive and emotional barriers (as also the Aristotelian reflection states). Both actors gave significant contributions to the evolution of the art of dramatic acting, in a century in which the actor becomes even more important than the poet.

Here he said that Proteus kept Helen in Aegypt giving to Paris / Alexander an eidolon of Helen in her substitution. The author wonders about the matter of this eidolon. The ‘drift’ of this myth is then considered in relationship with the history of visual arts, that seems to have been influenced by the fame of Helen’s beauty from Parrasios and Zeuxis’s time until modern age, in strict connections with its literary afterlife.

In Homer there is still no term to indicate the living body as a whole, but is present the idea of a principle capable of giving “shape” (eidos) to body elements and to counteract the natural tendency to disintegration: the soul (psyche). Only with Aristotle the living body begins to be understood as “organism,” thanks to a hylomorphic and non-dualistic vision of the relationship of the soul with matter, which explains the living organism. The soul itself, in Aristotle, has the characteristics of a system. From this analysis, the organicist model seems to be enriched by the indispensable notion of “form” which, in turn, calls for the need for an efficient cause outside the system.
