Abstract: The main aim of the article is to present the interpretation of the prooimion on the Artemidorus´ papyrus. Further, I compare it to the first chapter of pseudo-Aristotle´s treatise On the cosmos (De mundo). I argue that both text (though not the entire tratise On the cosmos) share a common intellectual heritage of Platonism. I trace several motives back to Plato´s dialogues and ilustrate how both textx intail a Platonic conception of morally relevant forming of the soul in accordance with object of its study. |
