Unlike the image provided in Plato’s <em>Gorgias</em&gt; scene, this relationship is much more complex. It focuses on two main aspects: 1) how to acquire knowledge of what escapes direct observation; 2) how soul and body interact in human action.}, number={1}, journal={Rivista Italiana di Filosofia del Linguaggio}, author={Serra, Mauro}, year={1}, month={1} }
