The doctrine of the soul of Albert the Great:critical edition of his works: 'De somno et vigilia' (Book III), 'De intellectu et intelligibili, De spiritu et respiratione, De motibus animalium, De iuventute et senectute, De morte et vita'

长期项目(2013-2024年)涉及阿尔伯特大帝(1200-1280年)在他对亚里士多德语料库的系统阐述中所写的六部核心作品的批评版：《de Somno et Vigilia》(第三卷)、《de Intelligence tu et Intelligence ibili》、《de spiru et Resiratione》、《de Motibus Animalium》、《De Iuventut et Senectute》、《De Morte et Vita》。作为对灵魂活动和情感的分析，这些作品构成了一个系统的统一，它是以亚里士多德的论文语料库为模型的，被称为Parva Naturalia。然而，由于它的系统范围和对后亚里士多德来源的大量使用，它远远超出了最初模型的限制。本项目不仅将填补阿尔贝蒂马格尼歌剧《奥姆尼亚》的一个重大空白，这是由阿尔伯特斯-马格努斯研究所出版的关键版本，也是目前正在进行的中世纪哲学文本最重要的编辑项目之一。它还将在评论版中提供一个著作语料库，这些著作对后来在自然哲学、意念哲学和心理学领域的哲学思考产生了重大影响。在该项目的第四部分(2022年至2024年)，将编写论文《Deaetate de iuventut et Senectute》的批评版和关于亚里士多德《从纵向到短暂的生命》的评论，这两部作品阐明了阿尔伯特对“生命”、“死亡”和“生命周期”等核心生物学概念的理解。

The long-term project (2013-2024) is concerned with the critical edition of six central works written by Albert the Great (1200-1280) within his systematic exposition of the Aristotelian corpus: De somno et vigilia (Book III), De intellectu et intelligibili, De spiritu et respiratione, De motibus animalium, De iuventute et senectute, De morte et vita. As an analysis of the activities and the affections of the soul, those works constitute a systematic unity, which is modelled on the Aristotelian corpus of treatises known as the Parva naturalia. However, due to its systematic scope and massive use of post-Aristotelian sources, it goes far beyond the limits of its original model. The present project will not only fill a significant gap in the Alberti Magni Opera Omnia, the critical edition published by the Albertus-Magnus-Institut and one of the most important edition projects of medieval philosophical texts currently in progress. It will also make available in a critical edition a corpus of writings that have exerted a significant influence on subsequent philosophical reflections in the field of the philosophy of nature, noetic and psychology. In the fourth and last part of the project (2022-2024), the critical edition of the treatise De aetate sive de iuventute et senectute and of the commentary on Aristotle’s De longitudine et brevitate vitae will be prepared, two works which shed light on Albert’s understanding of central biological concepts such as “life”, “death” and “life-cycles”.
