Aristotle #250815

In the autumn of 1867 Mr. Grote undertook to write a short account of Aristotle's striking recognition of the physical aspect of mental phenomena, to be appended to the third edition of the senior editor's work, The Senses and the Intellect'; but, on following out the indications relative to that point, he was gra dually led by his interest in the subject to elaborate a full abstract of the De Anima and the other psycho logical treatises. Several months were spent On this task, and at the end he declared that it had greatly deepened his insight into Aristotle's philosophy as a whole. He also expressed his satisfaction at having thus completed an exposition of the Psychology, fitted to stand as his contribution to that part Of Aristotle.
