Footnotes

1 Ammonius wished to reconcile Aristotle ’s prime mover with Plato ’s demiurge in the Timaeus. Philoponus wished to reconcile the prime mover with the Christian God.

2 Al-Fârâbî used the terms irâdah for animals and ikhtiyâr for humans (Ivry 2012).

3 Al-Fârâbî drew on Aristotle ’s division of the soul in the Nichomachean Ethics (I.13), where he identified the animal soul with appetite . Aristotle also mentions the appetite as such in the final chapters of On the Soul, 3, though it is less clear here that it fits neatly into the animal soul .
