Content:
This book is inspired by the quest for the proper function of Aristotle's active intellect presented in 〈i〉De Anima 3.5〈/i〉. The urge to grasp its essence has always driven philosophy ahead. Nevertheless, the true nature of 〈i〉nous poiêtikos〈/i〉 remains far from being grasped. The author did not unravel it here either, her aim was far more modest: to get through the existing interpretations and try to systematise them somehow. To speak in a more poetic, metaphorical way: the author's aim was to shed some light upon the subject - explore the light metaphor from 〈i〉De Anima 3.5〈/i〉 on many levels. To avoid getting lost in Aristotle and Aristotelian interpretations, the author divided the readings of 〈i〉nous poiêtikos〈/i〉 into mystical and rational ones.
