Aristotle understands the nature of living body quite broadly and considers soul as natural cause which is inseparable from the body, and consequently he regards the knowledge of the soul as one of the natural sciences. Simplicius distinguishes in his commentaries on Aristotle s <I>Physics</i> two principles of the movement of living body: nature and soul, and claims that nature and soul are the causes of the different movements. The question is however if one can plausibly take the nature of organic body as the distinct cause of its movements? Indeed, the life of body is the actuality of its soul, therefore, the soul precisely should be actuality and the cause of movement of any organ and of the whole body as well. What is exactly the concept of nature in Simplicius, if nature should be conceived as some distinct source of movement? Which movements this nature can be the cause of? What is the relation between the nature of living mobile body and its <i>entelecheia</i>, i.e. its soul?<br />In my report I try to give some answers to these questions through consideration of two famous traditional examples that Simplicius himself analyzes in his commentaries: the example of helmsman and ship which was traditionally used to explicate the way soul moves the body; and the second example of movement of marionettes (mechanical puppets) used to explain the development of an embryo. I ll draw on the texts from Commentary on <I>Physics</i> II, 1-3 by Simplicius and from commentary to <I>On Soul</i> II, 1-4 by Ps.-Simplicius (Priscian?).</p><br /> </div> </td> <td style="background:url(tabs/tii_69.png) repeat-y"></td> </tr> <tr> <td><img src="tabs/tii_72.png" alt="" /></td> <td style="background:url(tabs/tii_74.png) repeat-x"></td> <td><img src="tabs/tii_79.png" alt="" /></td> </tr> </table> <p class="MsoNormal" align="right" style='text-align:right'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:&quot;Tahoma&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;'>© ;0B>=>2A:>5 >1I5AB2>, 2018 3. </span></p> <p align="right" style='margin-top:0mm;margin-right:3pt;margin-bottom: 0mm;margin-left:-36.0pt;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:right'><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:&quot;Tahoma&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;'><a href="../index3.htm">  !!# $ &</a></span></b></p> <!-- InstanceEndEditable --> </td> </tr> </tbody> </body> <!-- InstanceEnd --></html>
